ohiobrewtus, that's one awesome pub/basement. Hands down one of the best I've seen. And as said, that entrance is very nice. That stone really completes it. Makes me really wish I had a basement.

Yeah, as wilserbrewer said. That's an impressive feat for your first all grain. I've been brewing all grain for about 4 years and the largest I've ever made was a 10 gallon, but that's also due to my equipment.

Wow olllllo, that is very cool. Congratulations. I'd be smiling the whole time too if I had a chance to brew 7bbl. I thought the possibility of brewing 1 bbl would be quite an adventure, especially using non-commercial equipment.

MikeFlynn74, after reading your recipe I decided to finally make a rye beer myself. Especially after how good you said yours turned out. I did a slightly different batch, 7lb 2 row 1.5lb rye 1lb naked oats .5lb flaked oats It isn't very red, but it sure does have that rye bite, but is matched...

Greetings from a Yooper with a passion for brewing.

Hello and welcome from the UP

I ordered 2 rhizomes this spring. Only one has grown above the surface so far after 2 months. Very nice sunny location for them. Cascade took off, still waiting on the Centennial. I have other hops that are unknown years old that I haven't ID'ed completely yet, (might be cascade, they...

WM, I used this method to propagate one bine last fall right after I harvested. There's a small bine that's growing a few inches. I had left about 1-2 ft of the bine exposed from the crown and buried a length of about a foot underground, and cut off the remaining part of the bine.

I like your method of measuring the hops, Seabee. And a little bit of encouragement for the hops too, eh? Showing them where they will be lucky enough to end up in once they're big and strong enough and bearing cones?

I still can't do anything with the hops I'm growing. I'm growing them on some land 2 hours north of where I am, and there's still snow up there, (got to love Lake Superior). Once gone (in hopefully a week), I plan to take the hop bines I put underground last fall and create a few extra...

Greetings from the UP. I just joined yesterday, but have been reading the forums off and on since August. Been brewing all grain for years and ventured into hop growing and the forums have a wealth of information that was very useful. Had to finally get on board.
