I brew a tripel that I use a mix of 1214 and 3787. Works great.

You want brains? Here are some brains....

The kind of sugar does not matter. Like brandonlovesbeer said, just find a calculator and find the correct amount, and. you will be good. But I have to disagree with brandonloves beer on this. That is an old fallacy that has been proven wrong. Table sugar does not add a twang to beers. If so...

I have had thi sone for years and have made a couple of hundred starters. Works great. http://stirstarters.com/

How about. a tripel? They are pretty basic and derive most of their flavor from the yeast. If you use a yeast that is milder flavored then you might find that fits what you are looking for. Try WY 3522. Not as strong of the Belgian flavor as some of the others.

Framhouse brewing Supply is another good source. They sell hops by the pound and also in 4 oz packages. Which is nice for some hops that you do not need a whole pound.

I brewed this a few times, but forgot about it for a long time. Just brewed another batch recently and remembered just how good it is. I did use Denny's Favorite (WY1450) because that yeast and rye are made for each other. Great recipe. I won't wait so long next time. Good stuff. Great recipe .

you mention rinsing after you starsan your equipment. Starsan should not be rinsed, it is a wet contact sanitizer. By rinsing you are just negating the sanitizing you just did with the starsan. Next batch, try not rinsing your bucket and equipment and that way the sarsan will be effective.

The difference is that the BU:GU ratio will be changed. So yes the beer will not be the same. You would need more hops to get the same ratio. Instead of chasing efficiency, you are better off trying for a consistent efficiency. I could get better efficiency if I wanted but I set my mill to give...

Try this next time. Make a big starter from a fresh pack of yeast. Pour some off into a jar to save for the next batch, and pitch the rest into your brew. Next time do the same thing. Use the jar of yeast from the last starter to make another big starter, and pour off a jar to save...... This...

The longer I brew to more simple I like my recipes. No need for a kitchen sink grain bill, or a lot of different adjuncts. Simple is good. I used to brew a lot of diffeent styles, but I decided that there are some styles I like, but do not want to drink them all the time. I now brew the...

Drop the amber extract and go all light. Pilsen extract if you can get it. The wheat is good. Hops look fine Or you can go less at 60 and then add some at 20 and flame out if you want more hop flavor and aroma. One thing is I would plan for the FG to be A LOT lower than 1.010. 3711 is a beast...

I know one of my dogs is 15. She is so slow now and I know she does not have. a lot of time left. I am dreading the time when she goes. But, I will cry like a baby, then get another one, because they are the best companions we can have. Good day, bad day, they do not care. They just are so...

Elvis Costello has a line in one of his songs about Ypsilanti... The song, “Sugarcane,” starts at about the 52-minute mark. The line in the song about Ypsi – “Here in Ypsilanti, they don’t wear any panties” – I enjoyed my time in Ypsilanti...

hahahaha you got it close enough. Big Dick. I lived a few blocks away from this for a few years.

Here is a good one. Bonus points for what the locals call this......

mmmmm that looks so good. I have not done lamb yet with my sous vide, but after seeing this it is up soon.

I set the gap on my mill until I got 75%. It took a few brews to get it right, but now I always hit it almost spot on every time. I do not feel the need to chase efficiency. Many recipes are written for 75% so it works great for me. Being consistent is more important than chasing higher...
