i asked this same question before christmas. I lagered it bulk for awhile and then bottled it and stuck them in a fridge. best lager i've made

Jamil has never done a bad recipe ( well, at least all the ones I've tried are fantastic!). Never tried this one, but it's seems to be a nice hoppy amber. http://www.beerdujour.com/Recipes/Jamil/JamilsAmericanAmberAleExtract.htm

Found a six pack of this last night, and it is pretty damn good. Maybe english malts and hop bursting used? The bitterness was smooth, and tasted malty to me. The_Bird, you're right, it is a nice darker amber color. very good beer

Maybe my promash is screwed up, but 34.2 is showing as black. I've found this on a few different sites: Yellow light 2.0 - 3.0 medium 3.0 - 4.5 deepstraw/gold 4.5 - 6.0 deep gold 6.0 - 7.5 Amber light 7.5 - 9.0 copper 9.0 - 11 red/brown 11 - 14 Brown light 14 -...

Tried my had at it in ProMash, but how can SRM 34.2 be viewed as amber? Seems black to me.

Trub? Sure it's not krausen? That happen sometime. It's happen to me a few times without any problems. That being said, make sure you take the airlock off and either put a blowoff tube on the fermentator or clean and resanitize the airlock and sitck it back on. A clogged airlock can cuase a...

ordered from hops direct on dec. 30th. Credit card was charged on the 5th of Jan. recieved 1lb 5 oz of cascade and 1 lb 5 oz of magnum yesterday. That's before I break up the bags into individual 1 oz bags. Ender -I'm smelling a lotta IF coming offa this plan-

you can get organic Saaz from:http://www.breworganic.com they're 8 alpha though!

wrong thread!

looks like the "total into mash" is the sparge minus any lost in the deadspace. The "Total from mash" is your initial mash water minus the absorbtion. The amount "into kettle" are those two numbers plus any topoff minus any misc lost water. I would add the amount lost to the grain back...

the " grain absorbtion" box has how much the grain will absorb. Just take that number and boil that amount then add it to the mash for the mash out. Of course that assuming your grain absorbtion is set correctly. mines about .1 gal/lbs ender -I'm smelling a lo of IF comming offa this plan-

nothing to say about the yeast, but nice spreadsheet Grimmy Ender -I'm smelling a lotta IF comming offa this plan-

No, there's no non-lager version. I was assuming he was asking for a way to make it w/ an Ale yeast since he doesnt have a way to control fermentation temps.

Denny's website: http://hbd.org/cascade/dennybrew/ has a very detailed, and in plain english, description of the mash process. Once I found that, everything is much better. Ender -I'm smelling a lotta IF comming offa this plan-

Man I would love that too. The Lager version though. Great beer. Pretty much every beer I've had of theirs is fantastic.

along the line of additions, I've just pressure canned 7 pint sized jars of wort. Each one is about 500mL. If I wanted to make a 2L starter and started w/ 1 500mL, would I then add 4 more 500mL of started or just bring the total volume upto 2L. Thats the part I never got. Ender -I'm...

The propagator is the one with the "lessor" amount of yeast right? Sometimes it just takes a while for it to take off. I took a testube of frozen wyeast 1469 out of the freezer on Friday and wanted to brew this weekend, but it took a long time for it to take off. I started w/ a 50mL wort and...

Whole loses more than pellet. From what I hear and read from the last BYO, some people actually age hops.... go figure... Anyways the mag said if they smell cheesy dont use them. Never smelled cheesy hops myself though. Ender -I'm smelling a lotta IF comming offa this plan-

Organic is where I bought them from. They sure are high Alpha. Hopefully adjusting the HBU's will allow them to give me a good rendition of Jamils CAP

Has anyone used these hops? I've a pound of them coming and would like to know how close they are to "normal" Saaz. The average alpha is 8%. Danke, Ender -I'm smelling a lotta IF comming offa this plan-
