Thanks for the suggestions!

I'm entering a LHBS contest for Black IPAs. Hoping to get some thoughts and feedback about the attached recipe before I brew it. Thanks! 5.5 gallons OG: 1.060 FG: 1.011 IBUs: 64 SRM: 31

It's a very tasty stout...recipe as posted above is very "sessionable" but we have also ramped it up to be stronger in ABV and it's just as good.

I moved from Colorado to Florida and quickly discovered the same problem. Thanks to my LHBS, I now use a 1/6 hp submersible pump in a cooler filled with 40-60 pounds of ice (20 lbs for $2 nearby) and a quart of water to prime the pump...similar to raysmithtx and Hopper5000. Immersion chiller is...

I live in Florida and have the same problem. Thanks to my LHBS, I now use a 1/6 hp submersible pump (Ace hardware brand works well) in a cooler filled with 40-60 pounds of ice and a quart of water to prime the pump. Immersion chiller is connected to the pump, with the output recirculating back...

I got to hear my wife talk about her brew day while I'm deployed!

Looks cool

Sweet!

Brewed this today for a local brewfest next month. Came in at 1062 for 5.5 gallons in the fermentor...sample has a great biscuit flavor; looking forward to seeing how it tastes in a couple weeks!

Hard to say if you can notice a difference in flavor in the finished beer (I'm definitely not BJCP material), but there was a noticeable difference when tasting the malted barley itself. I'm confident the beer will be just as good with American pale malt if that's what you have available.

Sounds interesting!

Borrowed this recipe from Craft Beer & Brewing with a few tweaks (http://www.beerandbrewing.com/easy-irish-stout/) It's an easy drinking stout, perfect for a summer day (especially here in Florida). It has rich flavor from the roasted barley, with a smooth feel from the oats. My LHBS had...
