Having great neighbors is really something! And not just as an outlet for beer:) Neighbors have always influenced my life both urban and rural. I'm interested in stories…especially beer stories!

Thanks. As in the past I used about 5 debitterrd black, but this time I think it was more like 3% and it came out of the sparge brown. I ended up steeping in a bag black patent around knockout and it really did the trick. Flavor wise I was very happy w the wort not be roasted or astringent. I...

I've been drinking Einstock Icelandic White. It's a really really good white! My bro says I need to try Allagash. Anyone willing to mail me some for trades? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Cheers to that. I'd suggest looking for beers that you don't, won't, haven't or can't make to keep it fun and interesting. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Ok thanks. Open air and room temp vs any reasonable storage makes 50% seem overkill. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Viewers, here's the answer. Yes, If you steep black patent at knockout it'll blacken your beer without adding flavor.

Howdy I'm into my boil of black IPA. 20% carafa III didn't really blacken enough. All I got is some crushed black patent. Think some steep time can give me color and not roast flavor?

How much do folks compensate for alpha acid degradation over storage time? For example BSM advises 50% loss over six months? Does anyone out there use these guidelines to directly re-proportion their bitter hop bill? IE doubling down for the above example?... Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Dude, you got like 40 questions here. I say commit to the 10 gallon setup you were sold. Continue reading, mash, sparge, chill, aerate, and pitch a good crop. Then decide how you want to rack, condition and dispense and great beer awaits.

Thats cool!

Well I'm stoked. Finally threw together again 6 gallons of Treetop and 2 lbs dextrose for OG 1.060. Good aeration with the jugs, no Oxygen. Double pitched.

Cool so if 2bs dextrose in 6 gal gave you .052, that'd be about 6.8 ABV finished at 1.0. Does anyone oxygenate the straight juice and or dextrose mixture?

Hey y'all about to throw together my second batch, pr 6 gallons. What's the opinions on ABV and dextrose qauntities? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Tied at 12 for most winter games medals of all time. And just the first event! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Thanks for posting these photos. Like others here I was pretty pumped to see the conical bucket. However (and I'm sure the plastics haters will go off here :-)) but being that the buckets are not available and I like plastic cause its lighter and easier to move and clean in my less than ideal...

Wow, the men's Biathlon 10k opener goes to the 40 year old master for his 12th medal. So badass! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
