Ok, so I'm still tweaking this....added 1 oz Cluster @ 10 min & moved more cascade to dryhopping and added some C40. Any suggestions? How about hopstand/whirlpooling??? (I've never done it) -------------------------- Boil Size: 11.85 gal Post Boil Volume: 11.23 gal Batch Size...

I always use the 5.2 because I don't know the ph of my water and have never gotten a report. I think of it as cheap insurance in case my water ph is messed up I don't think it's that expensive, I bought a tub of it and it's lasted about 2 years now.

Got this sucker on craigslist for $20... What do i need to make a O2 wand/stone system? Also...the bottle hydro date is '84 (yes 30 years!) There is some O2 in it......use it? what will it cost to hydro this bottle? has anyone seen a bottle like this? Will the gas Co. even hydro / fill...

Hey, I'm looking to do a West Coast C's type ipa. I have on hand : Cascade 3.8 oz Centennial 2 oz Chinook 1 oz Cluster Citra 2 oz .......also 2 oz amarillo (not a c but willing to fudge it if necessary) Here is what i am toying with so far: Boil Size: 11.85 gal Post Boil Volume...

OK, cool. what sort of flavor / aroma did you get with the Galaxy? when and how much did you add them? I really don't want them to outshine the Nelson Sauvin's as they are in one of my favorite IPA's.

OK cool, thanks. So, you think my hop choices/schedule looks good? I was thinking my dry hop might be a little light.

so....you're saying change the 0 min additions to 3 min for more aroma?

Cool. not a big fan of the Lat 48.....but i think I'll give the Pacific gem a shot as a bittering (first wort).........here is what I'm playing with so far: Recipe Specifications -------------------------- Boil Size: 11.85 gal Post Boil Volume: 11.23 gal Batch Size (fermenter): 10.60 gal...

How did it turn out? Were you happy with the Pac gem for the bittering?

I'm crafting a all New Zealand/Australian hopped IPA. I'm trying to decide on my hops profile and would appreciate some advice. I'm definitely using Nelson Sauvin...trying to decide on the others.....Pacific Jem & Galaxy are in the running....I mainly can't nail down the bittering hop.....going...

Nevermind, i figured it out..... i totally deleted it and the value changed. i thought it should change by adding after boil but i was wrong, i guess.

Seems like it does not change my estimated abv or OG. I have added 3 lbs in a 10 gal all grain batch & it does not change these ##'s. I have changed the tab from add after boil from checked to unchecked & it just changed IBu's. Does anyone have any idea how many points this will add to my...

I will give it a shot. Kind of wanted to do a cross between your lemon-lime and the blood orange. I did a "mix" of yeast before w/ 3068 & US 05 and the 3068 was very dominant......seemed like it was all 3068....maybe because it's such a fast aggressive ferment???
