Wooo... almost missed this one.. I'm in!

In it to win it!

Great timing on this post, OP. I was just kicking around the idea of doing this very same thing. Thanks for all the great info, everyone! Nat... when you add them to the secondary, how does the aroma / flavor hold up over the life of your beer? Is coffee something that seems to drop off...

I've been using this scale for about the past 2 years and it works great for me. Tares quickly, change units with the push of a button, and I don't think I've replaced the 2 AA batteries in it since I bought it.

With the grain bill that you posted, you're looking at 1.059 OG with a color of about 5 SRM... assuming the Munich you used is around 9 SRM. Could it have possibly been a dark Munich? Those are usually around 15 SRM, which would darken things a little. If you're looking for a very pale ale...

Just finished the survey. I've got plans to brew!

All up in it to win it.

If it were more than a couple weeks, I'd be concerned. A few days, though? That won't make a noticeable difference. Just keep it in a cool, dry place if possible and you should be good to go :mug:

I use OxyClean exclusively now, and haven't bought PBW in quite some time. For carboys, I fill them with about 3/4 scoop and some warm water. I let it sit overnight, and the gunk is piled up in the bottom of the carboy in the morning. Mash tun, cpvc manifold, tubing, plastic mash...

I can't believe it... this is the one where I finally win! ...please? :D

I'm in, thanks!

I dump nearly everything into the carboy as well (except the obvious hop pellet sludge), and the beer comes out just fine. However, if I started to re-use the yeast, I think I might change my method.

24 feet of hop-growing glory. The main (horizontal) runs go through eyebolts and then tie off some extra slack below, allowing me to untie and let the middle sag down for harvest. The vertical drops are offset by a few feet so that the back lines aren't shaded by the front later in the...

Be sure to get Oxyclean FREE, as it has no dyes, perfumes, etc.

I'm in!

I'm in, thanks!

In!

That's odd... I was just cleaning out some junk in the basement a week ago and I came across a label for Butt Head Bock. A pretty good beer, if I recall correctly. I was at the Winking Lizard in Cleveland several years ago and had one, and I thought it was so good I peeled the label off to...

Man, you HAVE been out of the loop. It's the 21st century now! Women are empowered to grow their own facial hair rather than hiding behind the krausen of yesteryear.

Thanks for the update, LHB. Sounds like they took care of the issues that I had with mine. Hope it continues to work well for you! :mug:
