Yes, I plan to start with 6.5gals. The samples don't need to have same starting gravity though, attenuation will be the variable in check.

my understanding is that the longer the boil, the more caramelization of sugars, which makes it less fermentable. Longer boils also turns the beer darker for the same reason, caramelization of sugars. Perhaps caramelization is not a big issue when the boil is driven by steam, not the case with...

I have always done 60min boils and my calculation of attenuation has been very accurate. My last boil was 30min only, to increase chill haze in the beer. The attenuation of this batch was much higher, making me think it is related to the short boil driving to a more fermentable wort. Is there...

Finished primary now and will be transferring to keg tomorrow, along with some cascade for dry hoping. Looking good! 10lb Briess British pale ale 1lb carapils 1lb crystal 80 1lb munich 10 Mashed at 160 for 60min 3/4 oz Centennial for 60min 1/2oz cascade for 15min 1/2oz cascade for 0min 1oz...

That may have been the impression, but it is wrong. In fact, I'm now drinking a bud select 55, which is horrible. In between brews I drink regular bud, bluemoon, platinum. But select 55 is more like a tea with alcohol than a beer to me.

don't forget to vote

fare enough. not sure if I can change the thread title though.

A poll is a poll, if you think it deserves your vote, you vote, otherwise you don't. I don't see the point of discussing whether or not it includes all beers in the universe, bmc only, lager only, award winning beers within.

the fact of beers were awarded doesn't mean it is good. majority of beer drinkers don't know anything outside their bmc options. this poll is in a Homebrew forum, craft brewing, where I assume most know better about beer. odd is liking a beer just because most do. perhaps the title should say...

Great video. Can't imagine getting used to drink vomit :drunk: Looking at the bright side, anything you brew after that will be an improvement.

Long time, just curious if you have implemented something and how it turn out.

I have added Wayne's recipe to the pdf at https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BxL7TXS8tHPsNWM2YmQ1YTYtMGY1YS00YjJjLWE5ZDktMmQ2ODdmMzljNDUz I'm not sure on what people brewed exactly, if any variation from Wayne's original recipe on page1, specially the coriander/orange amounts. Let me know and I...

Just made few changes to the poll format, find it at the link below http://beertech.blogspot.com/p/polls_30.html

Caioz1jp, here's a photo of a side by side of #5, which shows it is slightly darker than the real. #6 reduced the crystal 10 from 2 to 1lb to address this issue and color should be much closer. I wonder, did you use 1lb of C10? How long was your boil? I used briess crystal malt.

Looking good. How did it taste? Did you do a side by side test already? If so, check my previous post and enter your ratings in the poll.

OK, I have added a poll in my blog to track everybody's feedback on brewing the recipes proposed on this thread. Link to blog is in my signature, go to menu "polls" and vote, per cathegory (Color,Body,IBU,Orange,Coriander), on the recipes that you tried or tasted which closely match the...

Here's the #6 scaled to 3gals
