I'm just mashing an IPA. I'm doing a BIAB partial mash with extract.

In Canada.

I was just browsing youtube. The linked video is the aftermath of a primary blowing it's top. Has anything like this ever happened to you?

I can't offer much advice (and have a question just below yours) but you will probably have better luck if you format your wall of text :P Good luck!

I'm looking to make a pale ale / IPA this weekend. What do you think of this recipe? http://www.brewtoad.com/recipes/mikes-ipa Thanks for the feedback.

Brewing a Pale Ale right now.

Thanks for all the feed back! It NEVER hurts to float an idea out there before you spend too much time on it. So I guess the consensus is the cost is just way too high. Would there be interest in a yeast club like bighorn_brew mentioned?

Not really when you take into account grain + packaging + shipping costs. It might be the downfall of the idea I do admit but it never hurts to float things out there to check interest :P

It's possible the concept isn't totally there and I'm open to suggestions. I took a look at the cost of grain, packaging and shipping and it comes close to $10 alone. I guess if you had massive volume it could be cheaper though :P

I'm starting a grain of the month club for home brewers. The basic idea is that members of the club will receive approximately 1lb of a surprise specialty grain each month in the mail. Along with the grain will be recipe suggestions and info. The hope is to help brewers expand their horizons...

Congrats on the first beer!

And he sir is drunk!

Well I learned a good lesson. When brewing up my latest batch of beer (my third) I decided to boil my hops without a bag. There was only 2oz so I didn't think it'd be a big deal. Well after sitting in the primary for a week I wasn't able to syphon all the beer into the secondary due to hops...

Great feed back so far. Seems like about 80% of the time people are brewing new recipes.

Just wondering how most of you brew. Do you typically brew a new recipe every time you brew or do you instead have a few favorite recipes that you brew over and over trying to perfect? :mug:

Ya I have been dumping it. Just wondered if anyone put it back in.

When I'm brewing beer I take some out with a thief and put it in a beaker to read my gravity. Do you do the same? If so do you put that beer back in or dump it down the sink?
