So I haven't posted in quite a while, but hope this post answers some recent questions related to sparging and using a bag instead of malt pipe. I use the first gen foundry and I ditched the malt pipe probably after about my 20th batch or so. I brew with a wilser bag that was fitted to the...

Here it is. Post number 2,335 lol. ANVIL FOUNDRY ALL-GRAIN BREWING SYSTEM

This depends on whether you are using the malt-pipe or a bag on a non-foundry false bottom. I did an imperial stout a while ago which pushed the limits of which I desire to push no further. It was brutal and thick to fit it all. I use a wilser bag and a brewzilla false bottom so I can fit...

Question related to your double decoction schedule when going from 148,160,mashout temps with decoctions to get to each step....whats is your fermentability like with your schedule? Sounds like you nail the maltiness but was curious what your attenuation is like. Obviously this is also yeast...

ok heres a real basic question regarding turkey.....was going to wet brine a turkey for 12hrs prior to smoking it spatchcocked on my BGE for thanksgiving. However its a frozen turkey thats been pre-brined in 8% solution. So will this really be too salty if I wet brine it? Most everything I...

congrats buddy!

Wait what? Sultana is Denali rebranded? Had a couple beers with Denali in ipas a number of years ago and loved them but never could find them for brewing. Will def have to check sultana out

You know…it’s funny to me. It seems that the more things change the more they stay the same….I remember 4-5? Years ago the daydream oat cream IPA was the rage….I went as high as 50% combo between malted/flaked oats and a little wheat. So what’s the difference now with Brujos? Seems it’s a...

@wepeeler Kolsch! Admittedly, Ive never brewed a kolsch but its definitely on my list of "to-brews". This beer is really good to me. Its super clean and even though everything is kind of delicate with the presentation I absolutely love the bready malt that has a touch of sweetness to it kind...

Love this! lol...its still a very nice beer and honestly from time to time its refreshing to have an assertively bitter pale ale/ipa. the flavor on it was really good too.

@wepeeler Cascade Pale ale. Bright, clear pale yellow. Is this really a single hop beer? Never had single hop cascade before but this is solid. Citrus with emphasis on grapefruit. This pale ale has assertive bitterness which I dig. Drinks like its 50-60IBUs which may be over the pale ale...

@BrewMan13 my designer painters tape labels got ya beat buddy! 😂

another @wepeeler special. His Altbier. This is one of the main reasons why I chose him because I knew he'd been working hard on this bad boy. Sorry about crappy lighting but this beer is gorgeously clear and not as dark as the pic suggests. Great balance between the assertive bitterness and...

@wepeeler NEIPA. This is really a solid beer! Lighting sucks inside the house at night but this is really nice bright yellow colored beer. I also think the haze is "clean" looking to be and not a murky mess if that makes sense. Great aroma when I popped the bottle and the hops are fresh n...

BTW, I will add that I spent a crap ton of time on my labels. I may have even used grog tag to print them on painters tape too! Epic labels they are :yes:

Interesting. This is the first time I ever used whale pod shippers. Super easy to pack. My question: the two foam inserts at the top...the bottom one I installed and slid down the necks to stabilize them before putting on the top foam insert. WOndering if the middle "neck" insert just slid...

Just got home and ups was there at the same time. Everything came through unscathed @wepeeler ! Thanks! Can’t wait to dig into these. And apparently according to my kids the 0.5 zoom picture from above is all the rage. So here it is lol! and yes, I did salute these beers lol.

Ive used coastal haze a couple times with decent results too. Had no clue it was STA1+ lol. Wondering if its a blend similar to A24?

Not sure about which commercial breweries are using it but I have zero concerns with A24 at all despite it being STA1+. I also use Belle Saison with the same fermenters too. Good cleaning and sanitizing are key IMHO. Zero issues with the next beer afterwards in that fermenter regardless of...

Thanks for running this @TwistedGray !
