I hope you are right man. I was excited to brew this with the Kolsch, I was just a little disappointed in the outcome. Normally, I can taste if a beer is going to be good from the sample, this time I am really not sure. I'm wondering if the corn in the recipe takes a while to 'mellow' out...

I was kegging, and force carbing so no priming sugar. I saved the yeast, my buddy is going to use some in an American wheat we are making. We are doing a full barrel, and will try using different yeasts. I split this recipe with a different buddy who pitched US05 so I will definitely try...

I recently made a cream ale based on BierMuncher's Cream of 3 Crops recipe. I modified it slightly to add wheat and oats to make a Cream of 5 Crops. I pitched a healthy starter of Wyeast Kolsch, as suggested in the thread, and fermented it in the mid 50s for a couple of weeks, and then let it...

Did you get my message about the grain and hops? I'll give you $200 for the pair of eKeggles.

Thanks for the replies. I love the Brewhemoth, that in fact was going to be my first choice for a fermenter. I just happened to get a killer deal on the one I have now, it probably worked out to be 60% of the cost. It is a tri clover, I will have to invest in a sight glass, that looks pretty...

I've used them in a Saison and a Wit. I like this hop. It's a little mild flavored, but it is good.

I just received a new 12.5gal conical fermenter, I am psyched to try it out. I am not 100% certain of the best way to go about business. My current plan of action for using the conical is as follows: Fill conical and run fridge at fermentation temps (or maybe a little cooler) without...

Thanks for the replies guys. Going to brew at my buddy's and then going to ferment there. I'll try out the conical next week with something different. I wasn't sure if I wanted to experiment with the Pliny in the conical anyway, it would be expensive to mess up 10 gallons. Thanks

I recently bought at conical fermenter off eBay, and due to the Memorial Day holiday and the simple fact that USPS sucks, it has not arrived. The tracking, which I don't entirely trust says it will be here middle of next week. I am brewing a Pliny the Elder clone this afternoon, and I REALLY...

Right now the pallet is full and the order will hopefully be placed shortly. If anyone drops out I will try to find an equitable way to dole out the extra sacks. I'll keep y'all updated. Thanks Chris

Sorry for the radio silence in the last week or so, I have been busy with work etc. There has been an interesting turn of events from CMG. Due to pressure from Home Brew stores they have decided to discontinue sales to the general public. You may have seen the thread on HBT in the group buy...

Someone dropped out, leaving 4 available sacks. Not been that much interest, thinking we will cap it at the 1 pallet.

1 more sack to go to complete a pallet. We will probably let it run a little longer just to see if there is the interest to fill a second.

The time has come for another DFW grain group buy, I will be organizing and a friend of Brad's (Sewaneemall) will be receiving (my gameroom is still recovering from the last buy). If you are interested, please send me a PM with your real name, email address and phone number, and the total...

How much do you want then?

I'm going to try this one next week, when I get home. I am planning on having it ready for a friend's new house party 4th of July weekend. I'm thinking of a month in the primary, a couple of weeks natural carbonation in the keg, possibly using honey, and then a couple of weeks of cold...

I am posting on behalf of my buddy who lives is Keller. Would anyone here be kind enough to let him mill some grain, in exchange for some beer? I gave him some grain to brew with this weekend, but my mill is not yet built. He planned on having the LHBS do it for him, he was going there to buy...

Anyone have any pointers?
