Hello from Corner Brook, Newfoundland! The desolate land of macro lagers! :(

I think a late addition of sorachi ace would be great. im thinking raspberry lemon? Also be careful on your mash temps and the amount of raspberries you add, an early all grain brew that i did turned out like watery pink soda.

I've left gelatin cleared beers for several weeks, no worries there. I typically use a sachet of gelatin, what ever measurement that is. I'm gathering I should reduce the amount of gelatin I add. I always cool the gelatin solution as I add it to a glass carboy. For those choosing to do the...

Subbed for possible risks to my homebrew!

Any left? Pm me!

Not sure about all the recycling claims, etc. But it would be great for backpacking. I'm always looking for a way to bring my homebrew on a hike without the heavy glass or metal of traditional growlers. I might pick one up if they ship to Canada for a reasonable price. (edit.....19.99 for...

My guess is that it's a T500 Boiler from Still Spirits. As to why you would want to ferment in it, I'm not sure? The volume from memory is ~7 gallons maybe more. Sufficient to do a 5 gal batch with a mediocre boil (IMHO).

Well thanks for the quick response everyone. Unfortunately for me, Corner Brook, Newfoundland, Canada... does not have the market required for an adequately stocked LBHS. :( And we also do not have any hispanic grocers...haha. I'm originally from our capital (St. John's ~8 hours away) so I'm...

subbed for all grain updates!

Hi folks, Quick question, I don't believe I have access to any DME/LME for a starter. I meant to pick some up yesterday in another city but I forgot. I planned to check the local shop after work but they offer next to nothing. I think I have three options for the starter for my ~ 1.060 SG...

I would puree the berries as suggested. A point on the clarity issue, you may want to add Pectic Enzyme in order to break down the pectin.

Its just CO2 coming out of suspension due to the nucleation sites you provided (the cinnamon). Happens all the time when dry hopping. Should be safe to bottle.

Hey, There is a really good clone recipe on this site just search "wookie jack all grain clone attempt" or something like that. As mentioned above they use a English ale yeast. This particular recipe suggests white labs ( not sure of the number). I did a substitution search and ended up using...

Tweaking kits is a great way to learn some good techniques if you ever transition to partial or all grain. Altering volume, dry hopping and most importantly switching out the yeast can drastically change the style of the beer. Keep in my fermentation temperatures as well. I'm not familiar with...

Perfect, thanks for the replies! I'm definitely leaning towards 1/4 Simcoe, and 3/4's cascade. However, I agree with bobbrews about the single note of cascade and importance of an intense flavours like centennial. I think I'll incorporate 1/4 to 1/2 centennial. Thanks again, Dan

Oops I left out I have some ahtanum but not enough and cannot get more. Thanks.

Hi folks, I'm looking to do a Wookie Jack clone or really a black ipa as there are none available on the market in my area. I'm planning on following the recipe below, though I've never had it. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/firestone-walker-wookey-jack-clone-attempt-333436/ In any case it...

Oh I have ordered the strain myself. So I may post a comparison in the future.

Just to let you know it is possible to collect yeast from unibroue. I have successfully cultured yeast from a blanche de chambly. It is most certainly a Belgian yeast strain, however the resulting beer did have a pronounced bitter yeast character. Which I believe is common for the style...
