Hi all. I came up with this Red DIPA last year and finally got around to it. (My first 'own recipe') I'm hoping it's more of just a red colored IPA than a hoppy red. Had a bunch of Simcoe I wanted to use, so I did. Will probably try to make it again (and tweak it if need be). The...

Templeton. So good.

I can't get hop in the dark, but I love Deschutes. Am drinking a Green Flash Hop Odyssey Black IPA right now that may be better than the Stone SSR... It's limited, grab one if you can!

THIS... Stone Self-Righteous is a good second...

Here you go..... http://www.gardeners.com/All-About-Composting/5061,default,pg.html about halfway down..."How Compost Happens" Also pay attention to the right sidebar referring to 'brown' and 'green' ingredients I have had a pile for years, it doesn't stink. Is there some odor? Well...

You could also use some corn sugar and it would dry it out a little as well

When you guys add chocolate to this, is that in the boil? Fermenter? Post main ferment? Do you use a chopped up bar of chocolate? thx

Looks like you made an ok choice.... http://www.brew365.com/hop_substitution_chart.php http://byo.com/resources/hops

I pre-boil mine for 2 reasons: 1. so I can treat it with a campden tablet since my city uses chloramine 2. so I can have it in the fridge and freezer so I can goose my water bath and cool my wort faster. Sanitation b/c of it is a bonus.

I see it now. My brain read this 'for' as an after "Gently stir for 30 minutes". That being said, I've never had an issue and it is usually going strong by 12hrs.

I would also wonder about thermal shock if starting so high. I don't know where you guys are getting that Fermentis says 105* and 45-60 min... http://www.fermentis.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SFA_US05.pdf Right there, 80* +/- 6, pitch at 30min Like I said earlier, I've followed these...

Grocery store had a tasting table up the other day with this stuff. It tastes EXACTLY like Miller Lite but with a higher alcohol burn, (shocking, I know) which is to say, gross. (and that's not some beer snob comment,I like Budweiser but I've always hated Miller Lite)

Sanitation. and it's only a few oz, not really gonna miss it

1 cup of 80-85* boiled water Dump in, stir after 15 min Stir and pitch at around 30 min I do it for s-04 and s-05, have always had good, fairly quick starting fermentation

You'll be fine. Active fermentation will be done and that's when you need to keep an eye on temps. It will just be cleaning up after itself and conditioning while you are gone. I did the exact same thing for a batch I'm going to bottle this week. Dry hopped it when I got home and the hydro...

I use it for my zombie dust clone and have had many people who've had the real thing say mine was just as good or even better. Bottling another batch tomorrow.
