I have a nice heady oatmeal stout AG that has had very little carb. the tabs were prolly for the first round, but i have faith if you allow it to sit at warmer temps it will indeed carbonate!
i use melanoidin malt in my signature brew 1.5 lbs in a 12.5 lbs GB. i love it. actually i put trace amounts into all of my beers. does anyone have any more info on this malt? i'd love ot know 'more' about it.
is it ok to shake up your carboy in the secondary? i have an apricot pale ale sitting on apricot puree, is it ok to swirlt this bad boy up once in a while?
thanks

sorry, had to tell someone.....lol
inspired by the other thread floating around here...is it bad to ferment a beer too cold? won't it just take longer? my basement is about 50 degrees right now and i am brewing two beers a week. should i expect these beers to taste badly?
thanks

i racked a pale today over to a secondary loaded with 3.3 lbs fresh apricot puree from trader joes. puree'd it. pastureized it. cooled it. poured it into the carboy. racked the beer ontop. put the airlock in and gave it a few visceral shakes. it should turn out nice...
looking good. i just brewed a belgian wit too. turned out very nicley, not too brewery distinct but highly drinkable. like i accidentally drank 4 in a sitting....oops
