Ya It wont be 100 % corn, I know that going in.

They are all in Berry form so i malt them myself, which I strangely enjoy. The wheat really malts well almost 90-100 percent, the Barly is so so when I can get it. I havent tried their oats yet.

This has opened up a whole new world for me, I feel like a Disney Princess.. I have a cream ale and Ipa in progress and only have 3 taps and have kegs in in all 3 right now so I need to get drinking to free up some room. But my spring runs are going to be some wheat and oat beers, using all...

Now i have another question, Rice Hulls? Not the rice grains for brewing? Where does someone get them, my local brew shop?

What if you cant get Barley or its in real short supply. Also isn't the Ukraine and Russia the big exporters. I have been hearing rumors of a shortage coming.

I guess I thought it had something to do with enzymes and you had to have barley for conversion..... this is interesting because I like to experimenting and want to try an all oat an all wheat beers. Didn't the Egyptians make beer?

can you make a beer with no barley, using wheat and oats?

I may be late to this Conversation but I just started all Grain and have some Barley in bulk I want to store. I can get 5 Gallon buckets, food grade form my local Fareway Grocery store (they have them in the the front of the store for sale 3-4 bucket, then will get some Gamm lids. I think the...

That was going to be my next question on how to store the grains so you don't get bugs or mold. Just started searching the forum. Thx.

Cost is only a factor if I consider my Time, my wife surely doesn't, kidding :p. When I do Maple sap boils I do it outside over a fire and finish inside, so the cost because i would already be set up to do a maple syrup run (if I do it this time of year) its the time to boil down. Just say 10...

When I boil Maple water- Sap, I boil sometimes hours to reduce it down, then at the end to a temp to 119 to ensure no water is left (cant get to that temp until all water is gone), then I jar it. I also do Pressure canning of things because of Botulism like soups with meats. The jars seal, So...

If I have extra grains and i would like to convert them to Syrup- extract for later use? Its that time of year where I'm cooking maple syrup and thought i wonder if the same process for reducing Maple sap to syrop would work for grains that I have malted and mashed? I am concerned about storing...

I found it online and tweaked to my liking Double choc stout Amount Fermentable Cost PPG °L Bill % 10 lb United Kingdom - Maris Otter Pale 38 3.75 69% 1 lb...

Here's how good my double chocolate stout is, 2 glasses already, hasn't been in the keg for a hour Even with no carbonation it's fabulous by far the best beer I've ever made.

Kinda like “the Worlds end movie”

More of test to see if I can save yeast, incase things get real bad and I cant find any. Then i have some in a pinch, and at that point if the world is falling down around me , having any old ale will be OK .:bigmug:

I added my air dried ale yeast to a sampling stout wort I just made and its bubbling away. That was all I had of my test yeast, but at least its a viable option if all else is gone. Im gonna save my yeast from the Full batch of stout when i rack the 1st time and save that. THen I will try the...

I dried some saved Ale yeast. I will try a small jar using beer on my next batch in a couple of weeks to see if it works. Just a proof of concept

I'm going to try a English ale yeast in a couple of weeks. Yes I can buy yeast and its pretty cheap and I prefer to support my local brew shop. That said i still want to try it. I personally fall somewhere between prepper and Homesteader. If things go real bad in the world and the home side of...
