I've done cereal mash on the stovetop twice with cornmeal. Yes, I could have used flaked maize or even generic cornflakes, I suppose, but it was an interesting learning exercise. Now, I'm wondering if a simple water/cornmeal/barley mix will gelatize appropriately in the oven, temp/how long...

I bake bread with them, but not with stout/porter grains. tried that once and only once. I do send them through the food processor for a while first to make the bread easier to sell to my kids. Otherwise I put them on the garden, in the compost, or just rake them into the lawn.

just cubes, but it disintegrates pretty quick once it soaks up the strike water. I think you should brew a sour ale with sourdough. but maybe that's just me...

I did toast it, quite dark without burning it. I'd suggest you up strike water as the dry toast soaks up more than grain. Also, only add the toast after your temperature is stable in the mash and only in the top 1/4 to 1/3 of the grain bed. I did BIAB and it was an Incredible mess because I...

I'm intrigued by using bread in Kombucha too...I have two gallons going at all times and drink about a gallon a week. As far as using bread, I followed the toast ale home brew recipe once mol, but used a rosemary focaccia, for a pale ale. Taste was quite nice, but no head retention. Too much...

Yesterday bottled 5 g chocolate milk stout, 1 gallon HOT! chocolate ( chocolate milk stout aged on one Chipotle pepper and one dried Serrano), 1g old ale aged w bourbon and oak. I think I overdid the pepper but should be fine mixed w the base beer at drinking time. Intended to give it 5 days on...

Did you read the post? As I read it, the brewers mashed in one pot and used those runnings to mash the next pot of fresh grains. A reiterated mash, yes? They used their reiterated mash runnings for a quad, with the additional sugars so common in Belgian beers. They then did the modern pseudo-...

http://awesomebrewers.com/bm/Brew-Jobs/parti-gyle-like-its-1999.shtml So they call it a parti gyle but it is also a reiterated mash... Brewers be crazy sometimes...

+5 gallons each Old Ale/ESB/Mild from a parti gyle Brew session. 9320+15=9335

First run w my new cooler mash tun. Doing a parti gyle of old ale/ ESB/mild. Will end up if all goes as planned with 11 gallons fermenting this evening. Transferred my BB Porter to secondary with the Bourbon and oak and rinsed the yeast to use w the old ale and ESB.

If it's fermenting, it counts, I believe.

Brewed a week ago today. 5 gallons IIPA 7 gallons Bourbon barrel Porter. It was supposed to be 5 but my borrowed pot didn't boil much off and I over sparged. Added 1lb DME to make up some gravity. 8466+12=8478

Bottled a corn beer experiment yesterday, fresh corn stalks from my garden boiled in a wheat beer wort. Squeeze the snot out of them once they cool a bit... Transferred a barleywine to secondary. My father in law used to brew but quit 10 or more years ago. He's been hoarding some BW in the...

Finally jumping on the bandwagon with this recipe. Picking up the ingredients tomorrow, hopefully to brew this Friday. Yeast is currently in a Belgian wheat beer and I'll pitch onto half of that yeast cake.

9 yr old daughter is home sick today so I might as well brrw! Doing a summer wheat kit but a bit different. Fermenting runnings separately. First gallon runnings will be wheat wine of sorts, second runnings will be fermented w T58 and a bit of black pepper for a pseudo daison, then I'll let the...
