Yes.

Thanks for all the responses! I'm excited about the batch again haha, I will post how it ends up tasting. It sure smells good! I think now its time to find some other grains to try out, I have only ever played with caramel malts.

Has anyone added applejuice to their beer during fermentation? I've always wondered about a beer/ apfelwein hybrid. I think a nice head and some malty flavor and mouthfeel could be great with the cider, maybe this is my chance. Joes "caramel apple". I guess I have some time to think about it...

Oh geeze... I was thinking about turning this one into a strawberry wheat anyways, I wonder if that would help dry/ balance out the flavor or if it'd make it worse? I know some people backsweeten fruit beers, maybe too much cara is an alternative >_< Or maybe I can even just add a lb or two...

Was 2 lbs too much if it was only caranel 10? Fermentation started, at least it smells good!

.oops

Today I brewed a wheat beer recipe I threw together last minute. I am worried I screwed it up... I used: 6.6lb munton wheat lme 1lb munton caramalt (L10-14) 1lb brieiss caramel 10 malt 1.5 oz hallertau 4.5aa @ 60 1 oz saaz @ flameout Safale us05 I didn't realize that both lbs of grain I...

I REALLY want to know how this turns out. After reading about a banana bread beer recipe I actually thought about a blueberry muffin. I hope this works out for you, I really want to try it! Best of luck.

If you don't want the blowoff tube laying around try some fermcap! I use a lot less than it recomends and get great results.

Sooo good! Its a hit!

We force carbed this yesterday, only 9 days after primary started. It tastes great! I will be brewing this recipe again, but I will probably use whitelabs hefe next time. I am impressed with the quick turnaround of this dry strain but I can taste some of the tart that I've heard others complain...

Try making a few SMaSH brews, its the best way to learn what different things do to your beer.

Miller light is one of the nastiest brews ever. I prefer high life with the hops extract added over miller light. Maybe they are trying to phase the 64 stuff in because it doesn't taste as bad as miller light.

Moved it to secondary today! Got a gravity reading of 1.15, it tasts awesome already! The color is also great, I am impressed with the 06 yeast at the warmer temps. Will be kegging on Sunday or Monday. We will probably force carb since it won't be ready by Saturday otherwise... unless there is...

Wow! I haven't had any yet, sounds like you guys lucked out with that one though. Could have ruined what sounds like an awesome festival! I wish I could bring home brew into Summercamp fest with me, they don't allow anyone to BYOB.

If we take a gravity reading on Friday or Saturday and it looks to be near the estimated FG would it be beneficial to rack it to a secondary container until Monday when we keg for the sake of sediment? Wyeast 06 is fast! Fermentation started warm at 78 degrees and dropped to 70 over two days as...

I upgraded my 5 lb to a 10 lb at airgas for only a dollar more than the 5 lb exchange. Airgas ftw. Ida gotten a 20 lb if I didn't have to put it in my primary fridge lol. My girlfriend wasn't as excited about my upgrade as I was.

Fermentation under way! Hope it can finish by Monday, we ll take a gravity reading before we keg to make sure then we will chill, and forcecarb as fast as possible so it can level out for a couple days.

Brewing this in a half hour!

Here is what I created, a dunkelweizen on the light side? Not sure but I think it looks good! .75# dark wheat .75# belgian pilsner .125 chocolate wheat 3# golden light dry extract 3# bavarian wheat liquid extract .75 Hallertau 4.3% @ 45 mins .75 Hallertau 4.3% @ 20 mins .5...
