looks like you may have overworked the yeast. I would have added 2.

If you are going to combine, then I'd do it today before it starts to ferment. Added o2 might be an issue after today. Add some hot water to the syrup to mix it together and then cool it down to room temp. Pitch another yeast as well.

I'm going to brew this tomorrow and need to know if I'm prepared. Does this look right? - Add dextrose at last 15 minutes of boil along with moss and chiller - Use actual AA from http://beerdujour.com/recipes/1pliny%20the%20elder%20clone%20pdf.pdf on 90, 45 and 30 minute additions and...

Why not?

Yeah here is some real solid advice... RELAX!:cross: edit: LOL I thought you said quarts... In this case relax and learn if it is fermenting right now. I made my first batch last year after a long time off and it was way too watered down.

Cool, I think I'll give the bucket method a go. Does conditioning the night before work better than right before crushing?

I want to condition my grains but it seems like too much work. I don't feel like spreading out the grains on a board and spraying a layer at a time. I was thinking maybe of putting the grains in a white trash bag and spraying while shaking. Any practical ideas that don't involve making more...

Are you saying that you want 10+trub gallons of wort to ferment? I don't think you could get the preboil wort to match in the 10 and 5 without doing two seperate mashings.

The Arrogant Bastard clone does have a bit of an alcohol taste and a lack of the usual AB bitterness bite. So maybe I'll let it hang out on the hops/ yeast and use my finished centennial blond yeast cake instead for this. The AB took off like a rocket though, so that's why I wanted to use it...

I need the slurry in my carboy of Arrogant Bastard clone so that I can transfer a stalled brown ale into it and free up the brown ale bucket for a batch on Sunday. The problem is that the AB batch is only on day 5. It reached it's terminal gravity of 1.018 on day 4 and tasted great. I know...

That doesn't look unsafe at all.

Where are you guys getting the citra from? Can't find it anywhere.
