Cheers! Thanks for the input. I might have put them in at flame out. At least it would "stick to my ribs". This board rocks. One day I hope to be able to provide advice such as that I have gotten here.

Alright, Do you steep or boil the oatmeal? I plan on brewing up the recipe for Big Sky Slow Elk Oatmeal Stout. I am betting steep...but you never know. Same temps 155ish? Thanks in advance...

I agree with the OP, and I tend to like beer flavoured beer. Similar to Leary's comments on coffee... "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQxgv4QtKM8"

I will do the same.....obviously I will pay the extra for shipping to Canada. let me know.

I think I have settled on a better kettle. I have a "turkey fryer" right now. Any thoughts on this kettle? I want something that will scale up with me, and I intend on getting a false bottom and therm. Then it is onward to all grain at some point. Hows the price here...

Alright, that sounds odd... My glorious SWMBO bought me an extract (read coopers can kit) brew starter kit one year ago. Now, I have been into steeping grains, bought some carboys, a wort chiller, 7 gallon pot, kegging system.....etc. I am thinking about asking for a combined b-day and...

Thanks for the suggestions. Yooper, your input is great....same with snowveil. However between playing on the Inet and getting another beer from my bsmt I "slightly" boiled over for the first time. Hehehe...oh well. just a sponge's worth and a **** load of spraying the water bottle and...

I have quite a bit of cascade and centennial. Thoughts on amounts? Yooper is not a dude? :ban:

Thanks man.... I am steeping...so the crystal is in...I might have some more pilsen DME though. I could sub out the amber. I also do have other hops, such as cascade, magnum, and an OZ of amarillo. Some other noble hops which I dont think I would consider. Mt. Hood is a bit of a push i...

My advice is to get your other batches going asap. If you are like me, you WILL drink the first one when it is green. hence the need to get the pipeline going.

I taught English in Taiwan for a spell. Their national beer "Taiwan Beer" in a can with blue writing. Close second is that swill by Sleemans called Clear.

I have a few brews under my belt. I am an extract/PM guy. I would like to know things that have made your brewing exponentially better. For me it was: - Full 5g boil - Partial mash - wort chiller - fermenting at a lower temp even though it is slower to finish sometimes - Patience on...

Citra is my dry hop goto....wife loves it too.

Thanks DCP I really appreciate your input. I will give that a shot.

I am out to the Oregon Coast in mid July this year. I was wondering if there are any hop heads heading out that way. I will be in Beverly State Park, and yes I will tour the Rogue Brewery in Newport, for July 18th'ish

Howe Sound-Devil's Elbow IPA

As far as food...i remember a program called "Masterchef" and you could put your ingredients in and out popped recipes. Back to beer... I have 9lbs pilsen DME 3lbs wheat DME 4lbs carafoam 1lb crystal 120l 1lb crystal 10l 1oz simcoe 1oz galena 2oz Centennial 1oz Tett 10oz...

Is there such a program where you enter your inventory and out pops possible recipes? I am having some issues combining my "stock" with recipes as I am always missing some ingredient and I am not at the level where I am comfortable switching out ingredients. Although I am great at run on...

Okay...I put this in bottles on this Wednesday. However I put one in the freezer and tried in after cold. It was flat, with a nice mild caramel taste and a good hop bitter finish. Beautiful! I f'ed up the recipe...but i was 4 bottles deep in Sam Adams...that sounded bad :) Cyrstal 120...
