I think the general formula (from HBT) works like this: (Current OG / Desired OG) * Current Volume = Final Volume So for you, assuming that you currently have 5 gallons, 1.072 to 1.065 would look like this, for example. (72/65) * 5 gals = approx 5.4 gallons into your fermentor Hope that...

You can add water just like you're topping up. I've never had any issues. Others on here might recommend being a little more cautious but I would just let 'er rip. :ban:

You can add water to lower the gravity or just run with it. RDWHAHB :)

Thx for the insight. I'm going to give the trading thing a go and build up my credibility. :) I am probably interested in the same things the rest of the community is after: KBS, a real bottle of PtE to compare to my clone, a can of Heady, a bottle of Goose Island BCS and oddly enough...

Sadly, no. I take it these ISOs are In Search Of lists?

Cool. Thx. I'm in KY. I also have access to 3 Floyds. :ban:

How do I get involved with these awesome trades? I have access to some pretty good stuff: Founder's, Great Lakes, Victory, Deschutes, etc. It looks like you guys/gals are having a ball. :tank:

Same. I made a coffee stout and sadly only had some 60 min hops to add or I would have been all like: 60 mins BOOM, 30 mins BOOM, knockout BOOM, etc. Agree with you....totally not making fun of this guy. I think he's awesome!!! And his set up is legit.

That's actually "reasonable" given some of the SS prices I have seen. Thx for the link.

I wish. Aren't these like outrageously priced? /drool

THIS!!! I want to get completely sideways/bonkers drunk with this guy and hear all about his first girlfriend and that time he was in the mosh pit at the {insert Norwegian Death Metal Band Here} over and over. Then we can go to Waffle House and when he adds the syrup to his waffles he can...

Under 12+ inches of snow with 3 more coming tonight and a high of 5º F tomorrow, I really hate you right now. :D

On my mac i simply hit: FN + OPTION + 0 (zero) and I get the degree superscript. It's only 2ºF outside right now. Close enough. :)

Welcome from KY. This is the place to learn and make brew friends. It's an indispensable resource and as encouraging as AA. ;)

Sounds like the clear winners are: Fermentation Control Bigger Brew Kettle The Skull Jacket and saying "BOOM" when you add hops

Thanks @dcrog. I might have to text them and see if they can wait until snowmagedon is over. ;)

You learn something new every day (it seems) with this hobby. I've paid very little attention to temperature control thus far in my first 6 months. I just found a video where Palmer includes it as #2 in his top 5 tips for better beer. Mission: find a chest freezer or fridge.

All those bricks too, for just $666?!? Sign me up. ;)

Never had off-flavors. My ambient always falls within the yeast lab's spec sheets so why complicate things? Thus I haven't paid much attention to temp control. If there is a beer out there that I want to make that requires adjusting the temp up for a D rest etc, I simply don't make it. I...
