Thanks for the Links!!

No mash tun, I have the equipment for extract. I do full boils on a turkey fryer and have a 9 gallon pot. I want to eventually go to AG but want to get my feet wet with a mini mash. I dont really know what sparge and all that means yet. Also, how does everyone keep there stove at such...

Can anyone point me to directions where I can do a mini mash. I also have how to brew and complete joy.

Thanks, i wonder why their recipe says its 60 IBU for a 2.5 gallon boil. That seems odd.

DOnt worry Yooper, maybe this will make it more clear. Hop additions are as follows. 1oz cascade & 1.5 oz northern brewer at begining of 60 minute boil 2/3 oz cascade (flavor) at 45 minutes 2/3 oz cascade at 59 minutes. The aroma are only to be boiled for 1 minute. This recipe...

Is it possible to translate the one i posted?

Sorry that is the first recipe i posted. I cant wait to try it out! I will probably start with 6.5 - 7 gallons of boil water. So that may affect hop utilization. YOOP, i thought you might like this, i saw you posted on it awhile back.

Here goes... Steep 12oz US 40L Crystal 3oz Belgian Biscuit in 1 gallon of 155 degree for 30 minutes. Add water to equal 2.5 gallons boil. Then add, 3.3 LB Briess Light Malt Syrup 4.33 LB M&F Light Dry Malt 1 oz cascade @5.5% AA 1.5 oz northern brewer @8% AA 45 min in add 2/3...

Hey All, I recently got my hands on a Burning River clone..SCORE. It is set up for a 2.5 gal boil. Can anyone tell me where to get a calcualtor to convert for proper hop utilization. Or tell me the formula so i can calculate. Thanks!

AS always...RDWHAHB!

When dry hopping with whole hops, do they tend to stay whole? The thing about pellets is the sludge they create. I would like to avoid that with out having to use a hop bag, either with the hops in it or around the racking cane. Say theoretically i have a choice to dry hop with Cascade...

Yooper, do you dry hop in the primary after fermentation? Also, i have tried the muslin bag over racking cane and I seemed to get a ton of air bubbles from it. does that happen to you>?

Whoa dude, can you edit that? NO one will read it because you have zero periods.

What are the best type of hops for boiling and then for dry hopping. By type I mean, pellet, whole, leaf, plug... I dont have much experience with anything other than pellets. For my next recipe Id like to try something different. So what are youre preferences?

I just dumped the pellets in. I posted another thread awhile back and a couple people suggested to gently rock the carboy to get the hops to settle from the top of the carboy. Why would someone suggest that if it is bad?

Thanks Rich Brewer! Should i stop rocking the carboy to try and settle the hops? Im not shaking it or anything just a gentle rock back and forth to try and get the hop matter to sink.

straight from howtobrew.... "Metallic Metallic flavors are usually caused by unprotected metals dissolving into the wort but can also be caused by the hydrolysis of lipids in poorly stored malts. Iron and aluminum can cause metallic flavors leaching into the wort during the boil. The small...

deleted sorry

Yooper, would you elaborate. What solution?

Hey all, I was just wondering about something. I racked my beer to the seondary a couple days ago after it feremented in primary for 2 weeks. It was at its f.g before I racked it. I added some hops to the secondary for dry hopping. The airlock has begun to bubble once again? Is...
