Sorry i am here, 8 month old keeping me busy.... 1-For BIAB, I wouldn't need rice hulls, right? --- correct no need for rice hulls, this is only if you might get a stuck mash 2-The roasted organic pumpkin (after cooled) goes into the mash, right? Is a 15 oz can of "pumpkin pie" the stuff...

i did a nice pumpkin recipe last year. i used two different yeasts and there was a major difference in the taste of the beer. you need to figure out what you are looking for before you finalize your recipe. Do you want a pumpkin spice like you just tossed in a piece of pumpkin pie in the glass...

That's the best use of space when you have a small garage ...

i would go with Citra at the end. I did one batch like J's and another last year with sweat orange peal and lemon peal with just citra hops. i have to say it was gone faster then it fermented! everyone that had it kept comparing it to something like a bluemoon but with no need to add anything...

Look what i had to add to my crapy brush wand!! I started w/ cutting the top of the handel off, then had to re-bend the bottom. After a spin with the drill this week I could still see lines in the glass (not really clean after 10 mins of the drill). Then I added plastic scrubby pad to the end...

My carboys are crying for deep clean that my modified brush with a drill leaves behind, way better then trying to rig a magic eraser on the end of a wire bush!! Help me make sure my carboys are truly clean between batches. Thanks

How do you want the taste? To have other ask what is that in the background or to be very noticeable? I would go light on the spice at end of boil. if you go into secondary and you think it's close but might need a bit more, i would leave it and it will be good. if you get secondary and you are...

i use fans in both frim and keezer box.

i would not worry about. the question is how much pumpkin do you want. i just did a 10gal batch and i would advise if you want pumpkin taste, us a bit more then you think is to much, both in mash and boil. if you want pumpkin spice use a some at end of batch. i would advise to be careful to not...

The best thing i have found to use is a water bed heater. not sure where you can purchase them cheaply. Might be able to talk to some local delivery guys at a bed store, but one should do ya. they are 350W and very thin, i have mine attached on the wall of my frim box. works well.....

the best thing i have found is an old water bed heater! they are slim, big enough to stick on wall of ferm box and low power usage, sometimes you can even get a temp control with them. Something like...

I just brewed this yesterday, starting to take off in the frem chamber. *** it seams like there are still lessons to learn with brewing.... this batch.... DON'T TALK TO THE PERSON WEIGHING AND CRUSHING YOUR GRAIN... after everything was set to mash in... WTF... the 11# of 2-row were not crushed...

Yep, this is why it's good to do all grain. You would have control over the amount of fermentable sugars. It will still be a good beer, I would just not expect it to go much lower. Just for the safe side I would still let it chill in secondary for two weeks. I would hit it some dry hops one week...

You are at 8.9%, (1.096-1.028)*131=8.9%. that being said, how did you hop it? It should drop to 1.020 to 1.018 but don't expect it to get to low. Also I wonder about you mash temp, more then 152* and it will stay high. I hope you mashed lower and did all grain. Don't worry about it and if you...

used a full habanero in my 3L recipe. turned out good but hot. Get an idea of how you want your final drink to turn out. If it's hot then use a full one, if you want just a hint use 1/4.

I want one!!

Nice, is the what you are using? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002DJOOI/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 do you have any issues with off flavors?

i just can't help myself. I always wrap my Love Prob before I Submerse it.
