glad it turned out to your liking. asking the questions of protein rest and flake barley are probably questions only you can answer through your taste preference and what you are searching for. meaning try it and find out.

finished a batch of 40% wheat summer drinker earlier today. in the buckets at 1.050. the T58 elixir should go down nicely on the hot days. This beer brightens up very well, most casual drinkers don't notice the amount of wheat in it. next up all vienna esb experiment.

Breaking in the flat top.

I may not be the only one but i prefer ribs not falling off the bone. The melted collagen in and meat texture in ribs is not my favorite for ribs. there is enough fat in the meat alone for tenderness. I will smoke em wrap for a little bit then flame sear them and baste with the juices from the...

Cascade Pale Ale

a vessel with co2 would be best for a secondary if you can not control headspace issues or using buckets. might be tough to bottle condition heavy beers sitting at 50 degrees as the yeast may go dormant and may not wake up to eat any priming sugar. I don't have a lot of experience with bottle...

Not sure why I never truly dug into making a great burger. I suppose it was the cliche burgers and dogs and didn't warrant any attention. I have probably had more burgers last couple months than normally would in a year. Ciabatta buns my go to, holds up well.

I hope they start cheating at fast food joints so my burger and cheese are centered on the bun.

i purchase the paint strainer nylon bags for five gallon buckets from hardware store. generally for hops during boil so i dont plug the therminator. rinse them good and dry.

used Kveik in a 40% wheat beer and I will say it is a very unique yeast. Not off putting but it definitely has its own flavor. I would say yeasty sort of sourish to my palate. I have a packet of it and not sure what i will be making but might be doing a single high gravity malt fermented in...

never had lag time as others with BRY97 (i do make starters). I prefer it over Nottingham. US-05 for me the yeast takes a longer time to drop out, i don't purchase it anymore. of course, I think 007 english yeast makes a unique pale ale.

depending on your region. Hops grew naturally in upper northern U.S. and Canada. I believe these were mostly similar to or actually cluster hops. as far as genetics...leave that to the professional horticulturalists producing different varieties. I have seen wild hops and had some huge...

I would agree. Although my opinion is not based on facts and just general thought and observations. but that is where good conversation comes from. as far as supplier that really depends. Honey is such a low hitter on counterfeit it probably goes un-noticed. Kind of like the whole olive oil...

I haven't made many meads or experienced what you have. or have i investigated in what it takes to say a honey is made from this wildflower. in upper Midwest U.S. the main source is sweet clover, alfalpha, canola, and sunflower. sweet clover makes some very clean honey and can grow abundantly...

I was skeptic at carrot blossom honey. Looking up quick search those flowers seem fairly small. is there really fields of carrot flowers to be for bees to strictly use that flower to make honey? I worked for beekeeper in the high school days and you could definitely tell what the source of...

you must like hops. those amounts would make me 3-4 10gal batches. 6 ounces might have been the most done for 10gal.

looks to me you are drinking it wrong. need at least lacing inch apart, this was pointed out in an article in BY0B.

oh boy now the thread has changed:) I will say cast iron cooking scrambled eggs in cast iron is an art in itself. Cast iron is a high heat vessel and should be treated as such. A cast iron pan will be a better non stick option than the alternatives. I use a cheap china knock off 10" cast iron...

but yeah some oxiclean and rustout does wonders for dishwashers

stop using a teflon skillet or whatever plasitisized material and use cast iron. i don't have a automatic dishwasher anymore but when i did pots and pans were always hand washed. now everything is hand washed, takes 10 minutes of my day.
