Yeah thanks guys. Yep a year is along time. Wife and I had medical issues come happen. I always have a hard time waiting. Over a year ago i did a oak age imperial stout and was suppose to wait to pop its top yeah three months after i kegged i decided to try and really liked it. It was gone...

Good day all. Well Kegged up the RIS. It was a Larry's Russian Imperial Stout from Homebrewing.org that is a take on the Bell's Expeditioin Stout. I have never tried that beer and was wondering if any of you have. I see I did a typo. The sg was actually 1.104 and fg was at 1.017. I put it...

Well last weakended since a did up a brew. I decided to do up a RIS. SG was at 1004 which is about where i wanted it and got a reading of gravity that would give a 13.6 percent alcohol. It still has to sit in fermenter another couple of weeks and then transfer to a keg and some bottles and...

Thanks guys for the info. Luckily I rent a house and not an apartment so my circuit breaker box has 20 amp where I would want to set up. Yeah I have read info on grainfather and others but don't want to spend that much money and was wondering if I could do cheaper. Thanks again for some info.

Good morning all. I have been thinking of switching to electric and my question is this. I have a 10 gallon pot that is 19 inch diameter. cannot remember the height right now. Would the Blichmann boil coil that is 120v work to bring to a boil. My beers I put into fermenter average around 5.5...

Will check with the two prepubs i have here

My camera lens is cracked on phone

Got a good crush did by hand diffently jook up my drill next time. Crush from did not look like my crush

Well, got the cereal killer mill in yesterday and the grains. Set the gap of the mill at .035 and will mill the grains this morning and redo the beer. I put the handle on the mill and will mill that way first time. :)

Good video scotti. I have been wanting to get the grainfather but this looks like it might do. I live in Oregon so winter temp would be a problem but can brew in garage. Question, is what was the batch size you did. How were your numbers for your preboil gravith, starting gravity did where...

Wife went ahead and bought me the cereal killer this morning. I told her I would get it next month and she decided and went and ordered this morning for me. Love my wife

Yeah, that store only being an hour away and other stores being 3 to 4 hours away time to get my own mil and by the grains online and. The place bought out the store I used to go to because he retired and he was really good at what he did (knowledge, inventory, and such). I have seen him a...

The store issue has been a problem for awhile. I have buddies that have had problems and not happy with them. They are the only one that close an hour drive away. They are really not knowledgeable and have the brewing side as part of another business. Wife said for me to go ahead and by a...

I have been doing AG for over a year and never had a problem like this before. My temps were spot on my thermometer is spot on so I know that was not the problem. Yeah should have some dme around I agree. When I dough in I pour in slowly and stir like crazy. (The grains looked like they...

Yeah I took the reading with the refractometer first and saw it was low so checked with my hydrometer and both readings were low. I think not enough crush was the problem.

Good day all. :mad:Well yesterday I did up a beer that I have done twice before with know problems. Yesterday after I did the mash and got it into the pot I had checked to see what my pre-boil gravity was and yep it was reading only 1.016 (It should of been at 1.043). This tells me that I...

Good morning all. Well checked the gravity and it is sitting at 1.005 which according to beersmith it is at a 12.3% This is higher than the last time I made it. The last time I made this I had to split into two mash batches cause my mash tun was not big enough but this time my mash tun was...

Yeah I will do what Harbortown said. I am going to leave until next Friday. Check gravity if not done. wait another week then put in secondary with oak chips then let age and sit. omg ghb that is way to cool and funny
