Thanks offroad what temp would you recommend the conditioning storing.

“Damn that’s good!!” said Friday night drinking down the IPA just opened.

Last night dinner..... Baked spaghetti squash pulled from the shell, cooked ground turkey tossed in Trader Joes Harvest Vegetable Pasta Sauce, fresh spinach, ricotta cheese, shredded parm cheese, salt, pepper, garlic all mixed together than put back in the spag squash shell topped with fresh...

I use the Thermapen MK4 for cooking and now brewing. Love this tool.

Brewed a saison yesterday. It is in the fermenter bubbling away.

Thanks Palm. Yes, I went off the measure on the bucket. I am way too new to do any eyeballing...hahahaha. I am hoping it was the wort not fully homogenizing with the extra water added. I really appreciate the feedback, makes me feel a little better with you saying it is hard to overshoot...

Ok, today I brewed the Saison with all the above ingredients, including the addition of 1# basic table sugar. I am hoping a mistake in the final stages I made has impacted my OG reading. I followed the recipe exact, starting with just over 3.0 gallons of water in the brew pot. After the brew...

Just getting back into the HB game a few weeks back, I did not know any better and bought my start-up kit and equipment from another source. Then I found Brewhardware, and the few things I have purchased since have all come from Brewhardware. I will be starting a brew tomorrow, and had a few...

Interested, yes. Looking for a kegerator, but my misfortune is being completely across the country in NJ.

Hey chrisisnapping, do you still have the wort chiller, and are you willing to sell it separate from the rest of the gear? If so I am very local and can meet to pick it up. Thanks. Joe

NB Extract Kit IPA with 100% Chinook Hops. I will be taking better pictures next brews.

Picked up the ingredients yesterday, and they came with a recipe from BeerSmith. Calder, you were 100% correct on the sugar. Recipe calls for 1# of sugar. At this point I will probably just use the table sugar I have in the closet. Hope to brew tomorrow.

My first HB I have made in over 20 years. It is the Chinook IPA extract kit from NB. Poured too fast so there is more head than usual. For a first time brew, this is really good.

Ok, so I waited too long to order and the Belle Saison yeast was now out of stock. The folks at the HBS recommended Omega Yeast Saisonstein's Monster OYL-500 as a replacement. I will now plan on making a yeast starter with the Omega. Yep, never did that before, but read a lot on this site...

Thanks all. Appreciate all the feedback. I had a store bought Saison for my breaking of lent (long story). Looks like the Saison is in my wheelhouse this upcoming weekend. I will post how the brew and next stages go.

Thanks CT, I guess the fermentation part more of less. Just want to ensure fermenting the full time in a plastic bucket will work ok. Based on what I have read, fermentation in primary bucket for two weeks minimum seems like the standard. Would you recommend racking to a secondary, and if so...

5 gallons American IPA (Extract kit —- Chinook hops). Bottled and waiting now. 1815+5=1820.

Hi all, New here to the forum and just getting back into home brewing after a long time off. I have never brewed a Saison Beer in the past and looking at a kit that my local HBS has put together for a Saison recipe. I am still not ready to brew All Grain recipes, so this is also an extract...

Hey I am down 78 from you in Branchburg. I literally just got back into brewing with my first brew in years a few weeks ago. I am probably not in a position to go for the whole package you are looking to sell. If you do look at piecing out individual items, I could be interested in you SS...
