Don't do that. A great part of this hobby is toying with recipes. You will still have a drinkable brew no matter what IMO. Keep us posted how your variation turns out. The above poster is right tho, nothing like the original...but who cares? I just brewed biermunchers centennial but instead of...

Just kegged up my batch made 6 weeks ago. Had about 3 pints right off the keg. Damn this stuff is good. I will definitely be going to get more apple juice tomorrow

Nice work BillyMojo. I actually brewed this tonite myself, just pitched WL001 that I built up a starter for two days ago. OG was right on the money. Can't wait to keg it. The best part is I still have enough hops and specialty grains to brew another 5 gal batch. Thanks Biermuncher!

Check out le freAk by green flash. They start fermenting with wl550 Belgian and pitch wl001 Cali on day two. It's amazing!

How do make the wire connections to the pot? What kind of scrap wire do you use? I have some 14 Romex lying around is this too big?

You should try to clone it

May be a little darker, but id think it would still be good. I'd go for it. Let us know how it turns out.

So I'm not he only one thinking about beer at 5 am

I think the concencus for strawberries is 1-2 # per gal, so the ratio looks good. You could always add some strawberry extract right before kegging if the taste isn't where you want it. Your process looks the same as what I was thinking of doing (except the last hop addition which I think is a...

From what I gather. No prob. You know, I thought the same thing and was considering rounding but I'm not gonna mess with Jamils recipe. If I brew it will definitely be rounding it off! No problem!

Wow sounds awesome did you do a huge starter or double pitch?

I think 15% is probably a good number. Interestingly the article said oats provide very little oatmeal flavor, this is actually provided by the victory malt.

Sick icehouse 30 pack. Haven't seen that stuff in awhile.

This is what these mills were made for. Are you doing elder or younger? I'd love either recipe

I received a request for Jamil's oatmeal stout in this months BYO. Not sure if this is bad form to post it but I'll let the mods decide and delete. 5 gal batch 8.5# Maris otter 14.1 oz flaked oats 10.6 oz Victory malt 10.6 oz chocolate malt 7.1 oz roasted barley 7.1 oz crystal (85 L) 1.5oz 5%...

I've read that the oats should be kept to less than 20% of the total grain bill, but at the higher end will result in a chewier beer and is difficult to mash with. This months BYO magazine has two great articles on brewing with oatmeal, one for basics and a recipe for oatmeal stout from Jamil...

Would this be considered a mead or melomel? I'm intrigued

The Weymouth location is great, good prices, good selection. Also check out beer and wine hobby in Woburn.

Thanks everyone. So now I think I won't use the oats and will try the 001. I really like the 550 in other things ive brewed. Now im starting to get crazy but what if I added some more 2 row and did a double yeast fermentation a la le freak by green flash? I wonder if it would taste horrible

I know this sounds good. Just tying to do something more traditional for this batch.
