I am making this tomorrow. I am getting my well water as close to Munich water as I can and I am using Fermentis S-23 yeast. Barry

I use the Bru'n water spreadsheet and think it works great. I have not been dissapointed in any of the beers that I have brewed and have gotten many compliments from the Sam Adams/Fat Tire crowd, but have never had it judged. Barry

This one is rocking in the primary, using a serving hose as a blow off, it is putting out 4 bubbles per second for 2 days and now has slowed to 2 bubbles a second. Barry

Using my Kal Electric Brewery clone I adjusted my ingredients for 90% efficiency. I mashed at 151 and collected enough for a 90 minute boil. Got starting gravity of 1.058 and now fermenting away at 68 in my ferm chamber. Barry:mug:

Made this today on my Kal clone Electric Brewery. Only change was just a little on the same hops to get to the same IBU. Did not have the flame out addition and will do whole hops for dry hopping and not pellets. Barry

Hydrometer is dead on. I am using a clone of Kal's Electric Brewery which gets 90 to 95 percent efficiency all the time. I set my beersmith to adjust accordingly. Barry

I kegged my 10 gallon batch that I made on Nov. 2nd yesterday. Did not end up with as low FG as I was hoping for, only got to 1.020 but started with 1.063. Mash efficiency was at 95%.

I am making this recipe today.

I made this recipe yesterday following the original recipe on the first page. I must have gotten some crazy efficiency cause I ended up with 11 gallons at 1.059 OG measured with both a refractometer and specific gravity. I do have a Kal electric brewery clone and he says he gets 95%...

Brewed a clone of Kona Fire Rock. Hit all temps just fine. Only issue that I had was in cooling the wort, for some reason the water stopped flowing in my plate chiller, did not notice until about 1/4 was through it, had to turn the water up and got it to 90 and had it in the freezer and in 2...

That's great, I bought mine on Feb 22.

I live out in the boonies and my house is run from a propane tank. My hot water heater, furnace and kitchen stove all use propane. It can be done, just need to have the appropriate amount of ventilation and makeup air to be safe. And both the hot water heater and furnace are exhausted to the...

I have a late friend who kept a propane bottle in his basement, it leaked, and when it pooled around the water heater, his house came off the foundation. Although this is not what he died of, he could have. Barry

One thing I would like to see is a brew day section that allows you keep a digital copy of the brew day. Not just the instructions but all the info you enter as the day goes on so you can go back and look at what may have made a particular brew session turn out well. Barry

Yesterday brewed my first all grain in 5 years, well first of any kind of brew in 5 years. Of course I had to go all out and build myself a Kal's ElectricBrewery clone. Brewed a knockoff of Odell's 90 Shilling. Can't wait to see how it turns out. Barry

I am using almost everything Kal suggests except I am using the camlocks from BF.

I have well water here outside of Denver CO. Was curious to what you guys thought of my water profile? Just got my results back from Ward Labs. Barry

WoW, that is funny, and I am going to Tenn. at the end of next week. I think I may know your sister...
