I hear you there, I poured 10 gal at an event this past weekend and now my keezer is bone dry. Got a red ipa planned for this weekend and then probably this recipe with the 1/2lb of Sabro hops I picked up. The hops and yeast were both new to me, but I think the yeast was the real key to how...

@VirginiaHops1 I mashed at 154 for 60mins. Beersmith calculated .5ibu's from the 2oz whirlpool.

While not technically a single hop pale ale, I used a 3ml hopshot @60 to bitter and then exclusively Enigma hops after that. The Enigma hops came through as non-specific citrus and I would occasionally get some green pepper as well. This beer won 2nd place in the American Pale Ale (18b) category...

Grabbed 8oz of Vic Secret from Yakima Valley, I've been wanting to try them out in a brew for a while. Decided on a single hop IPA. Paired with the OYL-200 yeast, this thing was a tropical bomb from the first signs of fermentation and it carried through to the finished beer. This was crazy good...

Just used mine for the first time to smoke a Thankgiving turkey. Worked flawlessly, loved it.

Im in, this would be fantastic.

I brewed a vic secret ipa using this yeast, fermented at 75 (nervous to go higher) huge tropical aromas all throughout the fermentation. Just racked to keg and it smelled of ripe mango, great nose on it. Sample tasted really good (as far as samples go). It did ferment down to 1.006 but didn't...

Im glad you posted this because it just happened to me. Luckily i keep a bunch of extra keg parts around and i quickly sanitized and threw a new one on. So nothing to worry about with the oring sitting on the bottom for a month or so?

Wilser bag since day 1

I bought a HF hammer drill made by Chicago Electric. Thing is a beast. Sale price was around $20 i believe, it laughs at crushing grain

10675 + 5g ipa =10680

Yes, its called a Gamma lid, it has a snap on outer ring and the middle screws on. The lids are sold at home depot. Its the only one i have, i usually just get empty icing buckets from the grocery store bakery and use those, food grade buckets with lids and gaskets, and ive always gotten them...

Looks good, id try to find something to make the hopper bigger, the one that comes with it only holds about 1lb of grain

So how much priming sugar to bottle carb

The cider is still fermenting, kinda weird it gets a krausen and goes away and then gets a krausen again. Using MJs cider yeast, didnt do it with the last batch. I realize the combo might be weird, thats why im just racking 1gal off. Lactose def lends some sweetness, ive done enought milk stouts...

Ok so making my 2nd ever cider, its made with blueberry/ pom juice from knudsen. I want to rack 1 gal off and try it with some burbon soaked oak and vanilla. Question is, im kegging the 4gal of cider and back sweetening with apple juice concentrate after stabalizing it. If i want to bottle carb...

10085 +5 gal Gose = 10090

Take this with a grain of salt because im a cider noob, but i've made 1 cider using M02 and it took 1st place in the largest home brew comp in the Caribbean this year. Mine fermented out to 1.005 after about 3-4 weeks. I back sweetened with half a can of apple juice concentrate in the keg. I...

yeah it needs to be covered somehow, you can see in my pic I have the bucket lid on, I just cut out a section for the mill to fit
