Is it a commercially made graff or just a hard cider?

Put me down for 2 sacks

This is also good: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f78/gunslingers-graff-147726/ Graf, BTV style: http://brewingtv.com/episodes/2012/9/18/brewing-tv-episode-68-how-to-make-graf.html

Besides those mentioned, I'd add Franconia and Lakewood to the other breweries to checkout from Dallas. Austin Beer Works and Jester King from Austin. Lots of great beers being produced in Texas. And several craft breweries currently set to come on line soon.

Thanks for the offer, very generous. Count me in

I make sure there is plenty of Star San foam left in the bottle when bottling. it pushes out the top when filling and sanitizes the bottling wand. Plus, I think it enhances the high notes on the aroma of the beer and provides a clean finish to both lagers and ales. Mmm...Star San!

What yeast did you use? I've had US-04 and US-05 take up to 36hrs before showing signs. Nottingham seems to get started a lot faster. However, I've never rehydrated. Give it some time. Relax. Don't Worry. Have a Home Brew.

You have my condolences. Sending out a prayer for you and your family.

A #6.5 Drilled Stopper and airlock is what you want. I've done it with cider, worked good.

I have tried to go cheap. I would say that i have spent around $150 on equipment out of my pocket. Got a few things as gifts that i am not including. I have a pretty good BIAB setup. I still need to make a wort chiller. The ice bath takes too much time trying to cool 5gal batches. But, I...

741. But, I'm out of CO2 and need some ingredients for the next batch or 2. I think I might pick up a couple hydrometers, just in case it happens again.

Have your next batch ready as soon as the fermenter is empty. Trust me. One of my fermenters has had a continuous batch of this going since my first batch was conditioned. I need to start buying the ingredients in bulk to save some money.

Spyderco Delica SS...always in my pocket

I learned: Don't be in a hurry Measure gravity before/while adding additional top-up water

32942 + 17gal = 32959

Pulled some to hydro test, it looks like its done. Force carbed some in a 1L coke bottle. It is not clear, but I never cared about clarity. Well balanced, cascades shine. I need more ingredients so i can start another batch when i keg this one.

So, if MJ and hops are closely related...who's tried smoking hops?

Got my first batch of this in the fermenter last night, I did a BIAB method. The hydrometer sample tasted great. Can't wait to try this one. I wanted to have it ready by Thanksgiving for family/friends, but couldn't get it brewed soon enough. Guess I'll have to try to save some for Christmas...
