    Big Saison

    Big Saison

    So it wound up being a hell of a lot colder last weekend when I brewed than expected. I was planning on temps outside in the 70's, and not watching the weather, it was about 40 with sustained winds of 35 mph and gusts up to 60. Long story short, my target of 6 gallons wound up being 4.5...

    faucet question

    I've been looking at the 525 vs 575, and most reviews I've read say to just get the 525 and open it slightly to get a roughly creamer finish... no point in getting the 575.

    Most fries and freezers are metal on the outside, so why not use a few decent neodymium magnets?

    High altitude boiling

    My bad... did you do late water additions to account for boil off?

    High altitude boiling

    My fist brew, a hefeweizen, finished at 1.026 instead of 1.014. It fermented at 72 ambient temp, higher than I planned. My second batch, an oatmeal stout finished at 1.016, exactly where I planned with a good fermentation temp. About 63. In at 5600 ft.... I think process has more to do with it...

    I used the Sorachi for bittering... Should I have switched the aroma Hallertau to Sorachi then?
