Well....I've never done a partial mash before...can I do it with extract brewing materials? Would I just put the torrified wheat in a mesh bag and let it steep only for a longer time, than toss it into another pot of heated water for sparge?

Should I steep the torrified with the rest of the specialty grains or no?

Yeah, anyone have any ideas here?

Oldsock, Didn't have WLabs WLP400 so I took a Wyeast 3942 Belgian Wit. If you don't mind me asking, what should I do with the torrified wheat if I don't steep it with the rest of the caramel and carahell? **Edit** This is for a 5 gallon recipe.

Doing the extract + specialty grains recipe of this beer, using the following recipe. 3 lb. Wheat DME 2 lb. Extra Lght DME 8 oz. Caramel 10°L 8 oz. Flaked Wheat 4 oz. Caravienne Malt 1 oz. Willamette My LHBS didn't have Flaked Wheat, or Caravienne Malt, so the guy who runs the place...

Wine was NO GOOD....well...I'm not a wine drinker at all, but....it wasn't good at all. Color was brown, which I'm guessing oxidation from the dry airlock. Alcohol content was nice and warm...wine smelled of nothing BUT alcohol. A couple people over last night tasted it, and we all agreed we...

Gonna swing by the LHBS right after work to pickup some stuff for my brew day this weekend. Including a new thief, and sulfites. Will update later this evening with some pictures.

Joncat....was thinking about it. LOL It was hers anyway...despite the fact that she ended up being a whore, I don't hold any ill will. Things happen for a reason. LOL

Did this tonight, unbelievable result. Quick snap shot with the phone. Sorry for lack of quality. End result was really pro. Just put in the time to mask it off properly, I used Scotch 3m Masking tape for general painting #2050. Had absolutely no bleed through on the lines.

Excellent...as soon as I clicked post, I remembered the Johnson Control box they sell at the LHBS. I remember wanting to buy it a couple years back when I was brewing. Thanks!

So I have a dedicated full size refrigerator with taps that is currently not being used for tapped kegs. My question is, generally speaking, is it best to ferment in a fridge? My house is a furnace due to the sun beating on it all day, and the basement is generally always humid, and not very...

Great ideas in here guys, glad I came back. Where can I get a security wrench I'll need to get the posts off the kegs?

AWESOME. You guys have no idea how happy you've made me. :) I'll wait to rack it till this weekend when I can get some fresh sulfites at the LHBS. I didn't taste it because I can't find my thief. LOL Otherwise, I totally would have. I guess I'll have to give it a good name then, like....Black...

So...about 4 years or better ago...I made a wine. What kind, I have no idea. My now ex wanted a wine, being a homebrewer, I figured sure...what the heck. It was a kit from my LHBS. Anywho. It's been in my closet now, way in the back. And I just found it today while cleaning. /ducks It's...

Very good point. LOL And carnevoodoo, also a very good point. Will pickup some new seals at the LHBS.

You rock Hang Glider. Love your avatar as well, I have all the coffee table books. So Oxyclean is safe for all beer supplies to clean before star sansing? Standard ratio on the Oxyclean as on the bucket?

My soda kegs have been sitting in the basement for a couple of years, and one was left behind by a roommate with soda in it....in the fridge...that was unplugged. Needless to say, it's a mess. Somehow, bugs infested the fridge. I cleaned them all out...however I have a couple questions. One...

Well, I've got an interesting group of friends to be honest. They run the gamut of liking BMC, to liking anything else. We thought I'd be fun to do this year, give it a name and label, etc. Will check out your suggestions, thank you kindly!

So I'm looking to brew up a batch of beer for this Halloween, so I have to get started asap. My question is, a vast majority of the drinker at the party like flavorless beer. I.e Coors, bud light etc. They complain that beers with flavor are too heavy, too dark, too bitter etc...
