Sparky I just bottled and ended up with a FG of 1012 so I am fine with that also instead of using makers I went with my personal favorite bourbon, Knob Creek. Also I am looking forward to having a cold one of these in 3 weeks, but I doubt my neighbors will let me get through our block party on...

yeah it isn't as hot as you would think but it has a good kick you can still have the seeds if you want.

I got this recipe from another site, but it is great. Also I prefer to use mangoes not peaches: INGREDIENTS: * 12 habanero peppers, seeded and chopped * 8 cloves of garlic * 1 (15.5 ounce) can sliced peaches in syrup * 1/2 cup dark molasses * 1/2 cup yellow mustard * 1/2 cup light brown sugar...

haha, that is the name of the city

Water Tote 250 Gallon W/Tap Handle This is not my listing, but thought that someone might want to make a really big batch (250 gal). Seems reasonable for price, but I cannot make any batch that large.

That ss coil looks great. Also if you are going to have this in your basement eventually are you going to use NG? If not I would have to ask why not just go electric, and that way you can automate a lot of the brewing. just my $0.02 but all in all it looks great and cannot wait to have the room...

Ok so the one question I have is if I use two pots do I just use the mean volume estimate for hops additions? ie 2 gal in one pot and 4 gal in another and split them on a weighted average? any suggestions for this would be great.

Man I enjoy my digital music as much as the next guy and 300Gb is a ton but I don't know there is something about a good vinyl pressing that is just homey and soulful, but to each his own. Mind you as you can guess from my handle I am only 22 yrs old, but I hope it makes you happy and your bar...

I feel your pain w/ the two types of mistakes; still make both myself. I have never had a fullers but I might tomorrow if I see it at the liquior store on my bike ride to jazz in the park (a mke thing). For chilling I was thinking about getting a big bag of ice and using my tub with cold...

I used unhopped LME here is a pic of the grav reading too and it tastes great right now Gravity today was at 1.012 and has been at that for 2 days to i moved to secondary and racked over 2 vanilla beans edit: if someone knows how to make that image show up plz help me it is @...

I have never done an all grain or a partial mash for that matter of fact, but I am not intimidated by it one bit. I just converted a red 48qt igloo cooler to a MLT I am using a ss braid. I wanted to do an ESB as I have not yet and I love to drink those in the summer. I do not have a wort chiller...

I know I might be in the minority here, but I am a big fan of Dunkelweizens if I were going to do a wheat beer. I actually have an excess of some right now but I messed up when adding the bottling sugar and added way to much so it is as fizzy as a soda pop but still enjoyable when out of a...

Thanks for the info, I will post pics when It is done

Please tell me that those records were scratched or just ones you did not like listening to, b/c I saw a few from the covers wall that would be nice to listen to some time, but that is just me. Nice build though and I hope the TGIFridays on acid works out well

I just brewed this yesterday. I had to go extract and specialty grains though. I brought it to the lhbs and he changed the recipe to what he had and it went like this: 9# Amber LME 1# Crystal 120L .5# Crystal 40L .5# Chocolate .5# Black Patent 1oz Galena [12% AA] (he had no magnum) @60min 1oz...

ok then it is decided I will go for a long bike ride to the lhbs. I guess you are right i did gain 48 unlabeled bottles a mash paddle a bottling bucket/primary and assorted others for a good bike ride and like $3 for a few packs of yeast

any yeast ok? b/c i don't rally want to go to the lhbs just to get some yeast? and how much do you recommend? I have some dry bread yeast if worst comes to worst for bottling day tomorrow. And yeah it will be 6 months on Wednesday if I were to wait.

it smells fine to me.

I know the first thing anyone is going to say is bottle/keg it but here is the back story. I helped a friend brew a scotch ale and she never bottled it and now is moving to a smaller place so she gave me her brew stuff for now. It was brewed on 03-Jan-2009 it had 2# DME and 6# LME 1oz...

Thanks for the suggestions. I think of England too when I hear ESB, but I was drinking some of SN ESB and thought that it tasted good despite being a mix between an apa and ESB. I will ramp up one of these to 15 gal and let you guys know how it turns out.
