    Lord Rahl's Golden Barleywine

    The name is based on one of my favorite novels and what I took from the description of the taste of one of a drink from the series. Yes it's a British style. The rice hulls are common in most of my AG recipes because I've used them as a filter for years. Place half in a muslin bag and press up...

    Lord Rahl's Golden Barleywine

    While transferring some of my recipes to brewfather I thought I'd share this one with y'all. This barleywine was one of my very first made to be entered into the county fair back in 2014. This was a 2 staged fermentation process then moving to another carboy for long-term root cellar aging for...

    Building a 1 or 2 gal all-grain setup for testing recipes

    Thank you both. I'm new to the making smaller test batches before the larger batches idea but I want to recreate some of the recipes I lost and just cant keep the grains on hand like i used to currently. As for mouse proofing the plastics can be chewed through I learned that with my old...

    Building a 1 or 2 gal all-grain setup for testing recipes

    I'm looking to build a small 1 or 2 gal for the testing of new recipes and maybe instalation into an rv later on. Before spending the money to order large amounts of grain I would like to find a way to mouse proof (field mice from the wheat fields surrounding me) my brew-house beforehand. I've...

    A little science experiment

    Well, where to begin with the update on this? I've been dealing with several things on a personal level, so I have been poor at updating this. First according to my notes the 1.037 was the gravity reading was not the final gravity but a test done with a proper hydrometer after the confusion I...

    For Sale Corney Kegs for sale Eastern WA.

    A friend of mine has Corny kegs somewhere around 15 or so. He has asked me to help sell them so that he can buy wood for the winter since he has a newborn and wants to be ready. All kegs are in decent shape but need a good cleaning. I will post pics once he brings them over to me. Most will...

    What's the "weirdest" ingredient you've used?

    My grandfather used it in porters and stouts. I don't recall him doing anything special except adding the one leaf to the bottom of the mash per 2 gallons or so. He always used the largest leaves he could find in his garden. I'll check with my aunt and see is she remembers anything else about...

    A little science experiment

    if i use what I started with then according to the calc I'll have a 5.42% abv but i'm betting more on the 4.8 side when finished with conditioning.
  14. CharlaineC

    A little science experiment

    so if I'm understanding the calc you linked. for me to properly use it I would need a good og which I most likely don't have due to the oddball hydrometers I was using at the start. according to the refractometer the brix is around 9.8 if I'm reading it correctly and the sg side reads 1.038...

    A little science experiment

    So I finally got my refratometer. testing the beer at 68 degrees allowing the sample time to match the tester the sample reads 1.038. When tasting the rest of the sample, I found it surprisingly clean with slightly hoppy bitterness and no noticeable off-flavors. I will be bottling this today...

    MSDS Binder

    Let me ask you this what happens if the power goes out and a situation occurs where you need the msds and the work intranet is down? While I do understand why many companies are switching to an online digital msds, but the military taught me that power is never fully 100% reliable
