My bad, I'm pretty sure it was 3 oz. I soaked them in bourbon for about a week.

Night Moves - Bob Seger

I just used two packets a week ago, I got 75% attenuation and it finished within 3 days.

Under the Bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers

If you're batch sparging, I don't think the time the sparge water is on the grain makes too much of a difference. My three biggest issues that have affected my efficiency are the crush, hitting your volumes, and the crush. Crush till you're scared.

Indeed, don't fear the foam!

I've brewed a similar smoked porter: US 2-Row Malt 7.00 lb 50.0 % 2.4 In Mash/Steeped German Smoked Malt 4.00 lb 28.6 % 1.9 In Mash/Steeped US Munich 10L Malt 1.00 lb 7.1 % 1.9 In Mash/Steeped UK Pale Chocolate Malt 0.75 lb 5.4 % 28.4 In Mash/Steeped UK Brown Malt 0.50 lb 3.6 %...

Yep, 1 capful per gallon if I remember correctly. I've switched to StarSan recently though.

Trapped in the Closet - R. Kelly

I'm definitely going to head to Hamilton's next time I visit the SWMBO in San Diego.

Sorry to hear about your loss. This thread pops up every now and then, but it can never be too often. There are always new brewers coming onto the site and it's important that they know this.

Welcome. My sister went to college in Indiana.

Welcome, there's a whole bunch of us in the area.

I would add it to the secondary.

+1 for getting a new bucket. It's not worth the risk, the price of a batch is more than the price of a new bucket.

Sure, any food grade bottle with a top will work. Nalgene is just a brand of a type of water bottle.

I would add some gypsum. I have soft water and I typically add a tsp. or so.

I add about a liter of bottled water to 1/2 lb. of coffee in a nalgene bottle and put it in the fridge for a few days. The water will extract the coffee flavor without the acidity that comes with normal coffee brewing (with hot water).

Agreed, if you add the lambic blend and bottle it after 4 weeks, you're going to get 2 cases of bottle bombs. If you want a 4 week turnaround, I recommend doing a Cherry Wheat type beer.
