The grinder ground the grain well after I ground and filed some parts to get them to line up perfectly parallel. I would say 3/4 of the husks a intact and the rest split in half. Before I messed with it there was a small portion that was untouched. As for there being critters in my corn. Its...

I just got a corn grinder from Discount Tommy.. I am wondering. I set it all up to grind grain "had to grind the thing to get the plates to line up perfect"not complaining for the price. But, I grabed some dried corn I have for the deer and threw it in the grinder and man it looks nice for...

I got everything to make my 3rd batch of this over the weekend. Last night I noticed that they gave me Briess Pilsner instead of 2 row is this going to make much difference?? Thanks

I made a 2nd batch last Saturday. So it is ready to go to secondary today. It is pretty active yet. My question is the recipe says to dump it in to the secondary. Or should I rack? There must be some sediment in there after the boiling fermentation. I did not know if the sediment in it maybe...

I am on my second keg on this!!! Excellent Recipe!! :rockin:

I made a 3gal batch of this 2weeks ago and I just looked at the bottle of pectic emzymes and it says 1/4 tsb per 5gal and the recipe calls for 1 tsp per gallon. Is this right? I put 3 tsp in it. Did I screw up? If so is it bad?? Thanks

I brewed a batch of this and have question.. I used notty insead and I mashed at 154. Original gravity was at 1.042, at 8 days in the primary it was at 1.015. I checked it again last night, which is ten days and it is still at 1.015. It does not seemed to be fermenting anymore. "No bubbles" Is...

Tryed it again last night while crushing more grain..(Notice the grain dust on the glass in the pic) And it is coming around corn taste is gone and now a very drinkable beer. I ll give it another week and I am sure it will be great!! Thanks

Brewed a batch of this last night. Something happened got 35% eff its only at 1.025 guess the crush was bad on the 2row.. Guess I will add 2#s of light DME

Just tried mine last night..:( Only got down to 1.004 still has a slight corn front. Other than that there is almost no taste at all at 4%. Don't who what I am going to do with it mayybe add some flavoring to the keg..

I used 1/2oz cascade@45, 1/2oz cascade@30, 1/2oz of Mt hood at 5min I figured out to be right on 17IBU Thanks fir the reply

Drank the one I bottled while transfering to the 2ndary last night. Odd flavor think its lots of corn. See what happens after it dries out.

Drank it of course!! So far its great. I also bottled 1 before going to the 2ndary just to see how that turns out with out drying it. At that point 1.008 starting at 1.035 so not bad. Waiting to Saturday to try that one. It will be a week then,so it should be carbed up.

I pulled the lid off this morning to check the gravity. I did not move yet but as you said there is little tiny bubbles coming up :D Thanks

Thanks for the reply. My secondary is another bucket right now I have to get a glass carbory. So I can't see any little bubbles. I am only looking at the airlock and there is nothing at all.. Thanks

Hi I am new to the forum. But, I made a batch of this my first "all grain" racked it to the 2nd added the AE and been 3 days and no activity.. How soon does it usually start? When I racked it it was at 1.008 starting at 1.035. Thanks Jim
