just 2 days after my third all grain experience...i needed to make another one just because i felt like it: Test Porter 10 liter batch 0,90 kg Pale Malt, Maris Otter (5,9 EBC) Grain 2 39,4 % 0,70 kg Carapils (Briess) (3,0 EBC) Grain 3 30,7 % 0,50 kg BEST Vienna (BESTMALZ) (9,0 EBC)...

That grain bill on 11 galon batch would have around 1042 OG...

Yes. Just what i was thinking: by my calculations i pitched 1st batch - around 40 billion cells at most. Needed about 60. 2nd batch - around 140 billion cells. Needed about 180. 3rd batch - pitch about 238 billion. Needed about 228. Fun thing is, previous batches came out very good within a...

Thanks!

Hello all, First let me thank the forum for accepting me. I must confess i have been lurking the forum for the last few months, sipping every bit of knowledge that i can take. You guys are awesome. I started home brewing beer in March, out of curiosity. Made a couple of kits and moved to...
