Yeah, I really think the Victory is what made this. It really doesn't take much for the flavor to come through. I really can't put my finger on what style this beer should be. It's pretty well balanced, bitter, but has a strong malt flavor .... kinda somewhere in between a brown ale and an...

I asked this same question about AHS previously. The answer, straight from Forrest "If it is on our website, the flat rate applies."

Fermcap ... I use it, but I question it at times. Polyclar as well ... I mean its plastic. I know it is supposed to settle out, but who knows if it really does 100% settle out.

Don't usually post a follow up on my recipes, but ..... Just tapped this keg .... really good. Definitely not a hop forward Pale Ale. I really like this one. Didn't turn out very sweet at all. I ended up getting 85% eff, so a OG of 1.050 and 6 gallons. The victory comes through nicely...

Does anybody have any tips on this recipe?? You think this recipe will work out well?

I am planning on doing a Saison/Farmhouse Ale. After buying the wrong yeast last week, it got put off. I was planning on using 3711 for this, but my LHBS doesn't carry it. After reading about the wyeast Belgian Saison strain, I decided to not use it. My LHBS guy suggested 3787. I plan on...

Great band ... with that much talent, they really couldn't be anything but great.

I am planning on doing a farmhouse ale. I got the wrong yeast, but heard from White Labs, and was told it should be OK. Now I have to come up with a recipe. This is what I came up with, does this look reasonable??? I'm not sure about the hops, should I add some aroma/flavor?? I am also...

How does this look? Not sure about the hops. On hand I have Cascade, centennial, columbus and willamette. Also not sure if I should add any aroma hops. Batch Size: 5.500 gal Boil Size: 6.750 gal Boil Time: 0.000 s Efficiency: 70% OG: 1.059 FG: 1.015 ABV: 5.7% Bitterness: 27.5 IBUs (Tinseth)...

I wrote an email to white labs, and this is the response: Normally, the WLP565 (or WLP566 when available) would be the yeast strain of choice when making a farmhouse ale, but the WLP400 should work out OK as well, especially if you ferment it warm to encourage the ester/phenolic formation...

What about ferm temps? Farmhouse ales are generally fermented hot (in the 90's). Should I go ahead and ferment that hot with this yeast, or would that be a bad idea?

I want to brew a farmhouse ale. I went to LHBS and got the wrong yeast. I grabbed to wrong sheet of paper, and had some yeasts on it for a wit recipe I wrote down for a friend. So I have WLP400 now. What can I do with this yeast other than a wit?? Could I possibly still do a farmhouse ale...

I have family that works at anheuser, there is definitely a difference between the beer he brings home fresh and the stuff in stores .... much better fresh. I don't think flavor has anything to do with the process.

Just out of curiosity .... what software will you be using for this?

sorry, fat fingered that one the BM beergun ... same one as in the "no beergun" thread

I have done both, used carb drops and bottling right from the faucet using the B< beergun method. Spray some starsan in the faucet before bottling, I've never had an issue, have had them bottled for a month or two before driinking. I prefer bottling from the faucet ... no trub in the bottle.

Got mine today ... thanks for all of the hard work.

I mashed at 168, not realizing my thermometer was off. Took awhile, but FG got down to 1.018. Ride it out ... you may like the results.

Sent in my tax as well ... thanks.

Yeah, I loved SA Cream Stout. So I made a clone. Was drinking mine and thought something was off. I bought a 6 pack, and they are identical. I thought I screwed up the batch, but it's just the beer .....
