So you dry hopped with 5 oz of the galaxy? Would it be too much to add equal parts of galaxy and galena at equal times? For example, a .5oz addition of both types at the 60 minute mark, 30, 15, etc? I haven't necessarily finished my hop schedule but I definitely don't know what I'm doing (but...

I am trying to concoct my first recipe and have recently used galaxy hops in my last beer and loved the way it turned out. I am currently waiting on my Vienna/Galena SMaSH and assuming I like it, have started formulating a recipe mixing the two. I was wondering if anyone had done an IPA with...

My girlfriend is from Canada and one of her favorite beers is the Little Scrapper IPA from Half Pints Brewery. I would love to be able to clone this beer for her, but there was no information -that i could find- on the brewery website and I was wondering if anyone has attempted to clone this or...

And then I guess a followup question, will the longer mash temps be bad, or will it not really effect it?

Thank you RM-MN. That was kind of what I was thinking, but it's good to get a more definitive answer.

Studying for finals...Can't wait for the post semester brew !:tank:

I don't think it did...but it was very interesting, and I did not know that information either. Half the reason I started brewing was for that technical side so I do love learning, so thank you for that ! For my last brew, the initial mash temperature was 125º for 15 minutes, then stepped up to...

This has probably been asked around many times but reading some other threads made me think to ask this. I attempted a step up mash on my last BIAB brew on a gas range. It took about 10 minutes to get from one temperature to the next one. For a 60 minute mash, do I count the time it takes to...

I have found this. With both beer and liquor. Would be interested to know why as well.

I don't drink very much at a time. I do 5 gallon batches and try to always have something on tap (or in the bottle, as it is). That being said, when I'm starting to get low, I try and throw on another batch, time and money permitting.

Ah that's a good point. I'm not gluten intolerant myself so I hadn't thought about that issue. I was more interested in the grains used than it being gluten free. I guess it's time to start looking around for a grain mill. Thanks for the suggestion.

A little late to this party. I had some of my own pumpkin beer that I brewed specifically for the occasion, and I also managed to get a bottle of Dogfish Head's new Kvasir which no one wished to share with me so I had to drink it all myself...:drunk:

I am schooling in Pittsburgh and have just started brewing this past semester! Would be cool to meet some local brewers.

How would one without a mill go about milling these grains? Would I be able to bring them into my LHBS and have them do it for me? This recipe looks fantastic and I would love to give it a go, otherwise ! Thanks for posting this.

Brewed this recipe yesterday. I had to make a couple substitutions. I could not find Bravo hops so I replaced them with Australian Galaxy hops. I was also unable to find the lactic acid. Besides that, the process went quite smoothly. This was my first recipe where I took the reigns and it was a...

It even sounds sophisticated ! Cheers :mug: That's a great suggestion ! I will look into doing this.

Thanks everyone for your replies! Those styles are exactly what I was wondering. And you think? I do like challenges...

I brewed some pumpkin beers that will be perfectly ready for thanksgiving. Due to finals being right after thanksgiving though, and my lack of foresight, I will not have any brews ready for Christmas this year. What a shame. That being said, what are some of your favorite brews to cook up...

Thanks for the help twistr!

And just one last question them. If I'm already at FG, is there a point to even transferring it to a secondary?
