    Am I doing this wrong?

    Don't add all your LME at the start of the boil. You risk caramelization. Add half with the first hop addition, and the rest 5 minutes before flameout. (qouted Kombat) If you do add extract late. The addititon of the extract cools the temp of you wort and if you bring it back to a boil you...

    Has anyone tried growing their own barley?

    I do not think frost will kill the plant unless it was very young. Maybe give it some time, it is a grass. Mine is under half a foot of snow & ice and I expect it to come back and to harvest in June.

    Adding honey to primary

    The question that comes to my mind is what do you feel the difference is between adding after flameout and adding into the primary. It seem easier to add after flameout before chilling. I would heat the honey by placing the container into a pot of hot water then add.

    Causes of low attenuation

    There should be sweetness. taste it if you like it drink and share If too sweet bleed the pressure off let the keg warm to room temp. bleed often, several days the idea is the yeast may comsume some of the sweetness.
