...over lunch...

Okay, this smells very beer like. I'm going to use about 1.3 oz of bottling priming sugar for what will be probably just over 2 gallons. I'm wearing my safety slippers just in case.

You can edit it if you like I'm pretty sure. This is a cool thread

I had subscribed to a couple other threads. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/17th-century-french-beer.166923/#post-3774117 I froze a couple pounds of spruce tips from a (black spruce) tree we cut down in our back yard in the spring a couple years ago. The grain bill was 22lbs of maris...

O.G. was 1.064 Grain bill was 22lbs maris otter and 4 lbs mixed cara-pils. 1 lb rolled oats.

I let it sit over night to cool. I tasted the wort going into the fermentor. There was no heat from the pepper. I chopped up a scorpion pepper. I placed a small sliver on my tongue and expected immediate pain. It was barely hot. That's my problem with this, trying to develope a pepper beer...

The base grain was maris otter with very little cara-malt. I split the batch. The other half is a bitter.

Airlock activity within hours after adding reconstituted S-04.

I put about half a cup. I am going to boil longer?

I got me some tips! (They've been in my freezer for a long time, but still smell spruce-y) I'm making a small batch. I:m a bit lost on how much to add to 3 gallons.

The boil. I messed up an forgot hops, so boil longer.

Necro-thread revival... I've been getting requests to make this again. I stopped to check my past recipe.

It'a better than just bearable.

The cloudiness came from pouring. It's clear in the bottle. I disturbed the trub on the bottom.

"Thing Two" is almost gone. It has a very slight sour. Is has a lot of carbonation. ..maybe a little bit bready tasting?
