Yeah, I just liked the size of the grain bill, etc. :P

More or less, yes. Don't rinse it - it's called "no-rinse" for a reason. ;) Question: Do you have some apprehension to using Star-San?

Try something simple, like this: Scandinavian Imperial Porter Recipe Specifics ---------------- Batch Size (Gal): 3.60 Total Grain (Lbs): 16.23 Anticipated OG: 1.103 Anticipated SRM: 70.9 Anticipated IBU: 36.6 Brewhouse Efficiency: 63 % Wort Boil Time: 115 Minutes Grain/Sugar ------------...

Big Guy Rye!

What recommendations do you guys have for a good 12"+ thermometer? Something reliable moreso than cheap. Thanks in advance!~

Guys, guys! Sssshh... :P

Thanks for that. Question: do you use either Irish Moss in the boil, or gelatin in the fermenter (do you use a secondary fermenter)?

Looking for some advice for my specific situation: I am fermenting in essentially a bottling bucket (7.9g bucket w/spigot), and it is fairly opaque so it is a bit difficult to see inside. Also, when I transferred the boiled wort into the bucket/fermenter on brew day, I was lacking a strainer...

Welcome! ;)

The sun was setting in that pic. We started at about 1:30pm, and around 2pm realized the mash-tun was leaking and tried to fix it with stuff from the garage, but didn't have anything that worked, so we had to go to the hardware store. Took a while to get started for real...probably closer to...
