I've moved to extract brewing; 10-15 minute boil with hop additions between 5-15 minutes. No bittering. My brew day now takes an hour. With kids, it is the way to go. The additional cost of DME is made up in propane savings (I tell myself) :)

Hops are a little low, I'd put a full ounce in at 10-15 min.

The reason I started was to save some money. I shoot for $20 per batch (19L). That does save some money.

Take it to you local scrapyard, copper is going for about $1.50 a pound.

Even beer at bottling time (3 weeks) isn't great. You're sucking on krausen at 4 days? It must be miserable. You still have to carbonate it and let it sit for 3 weeks (in the bottle).

Starting off making lighter, more session-able beers (4%-5%). We'll see how long that lasts...

'nother 100 gallons in 2016! HNY.

5-6 gallon batch. I boil 3 gallons (in Florida). I chill and then add another 3 gallons of tap water to top off.

Extract-1 hour: 10 minutes to set up. 15 minutes to get the water to boil. 15 minutes boil, hops at 15, 10, 5. 15 minutes chill. 5 minutes clean up.

I just opened the fermenter and threw in some dry hops. I was expecting Centennial, I got musty. I hope it conditions well.

My parents chose to retire there. Every time visit, I pay far too much at the state run store :(

Howdy. Just wondering, does the state of Utah tax homebrew supplies as hard as they tax beer and liquor (State run liquor store)?
