Yeah thats basically what I'm asking. I've never read anything regarding this issue because its an uncommon technique.

I'm pretty sure I know most of the basics of mash temps, but I've decided to try a Ky Common and after a little research around here it looked like a few brewing it were doing 100% sour mash. So what I'm wondering is if you mash at 152 and leave it for a day and a half before sparge, will it...

12/2008 BYO has recipes for most of their stuff. I think they're straight from the gargoyles mouth.

I had the same problem using an old tank. I probably had a cm of soot on the bottom of my boiler. I would assume that propane goes bad with age just like petrol.

When making banana bread you should let the bananas go black....

90 is closer to an amber than a typical scottish ale imo. Its going to need a lot more hops to fit the american palette than normal shilling types. I remember finding a recipe here once that I thought looked pretty accurate. It was supposed to be from somebody who used to be in the brewery or...

I think I set the cycling for like 10 mins. I don't know what a stock fridge is set for.

I've got a sanyo fridge that I use for fermenting. I've got an APA bubbling right now and was wondering if I should/shouldn't just crank the temp down to like 35-40 a day or two before bottling. I was thinking maybe its a strain on the compressor, but maybe I'm just confusing that with...

Relax, Don't Worry, Have a Homebrew.

+15 Since mid July Saison Wit Extra Stout 18370

From my experience, any beers 1.060 or bigger with beano tabs REQUIRE a blowoff. I've done a lot of brews with beano and it makes the ferments very aggressive.

Thanks for the help, I ended up doing a google image search trying to find a diagram(who knew you could image search for things not related to porn?) Anyway I found what I was looking for at another forum. Heres the link. I just left the jumper on the default position and I didn't get a clamp...

I'd love a little help on this. I've got a 14# extension cord to use for the splicing to my digital a419 controller. The controller has an input side 240 | com | 120. And the output side NC | C | NO. The diagram looks like hmm... Tough to say. Live line to the 120 then the 120 bridges...

I'm gonna do the one called Reindeer Fuel from this forum. Its a stout, so all my friends will like it and none of my family will.

Boiling it works alright.

I went like 10 days primary. 2-68 3-70 and the rest as hot as I could find. It dried out to 08 no probs using 3726. Edit: Forgot to answer OP q. I did 1 pack with a starter that I only ran like 12-15hrs. Saisons are supposed to be one of the few you should under pitch so the yeast can do...

Brew some this winter, it should get rid of a lot of that.

Put the fermenter in a bucket of water, put a t-shirt on the fermenter like its wearing it. Run a normal fan on the fermenter. You should get 7 deg out of it. I was basically in the same boat and turned 75 to 67-68. The shirt wicks the water and the fan cools the shirt.

BYO had a chile beer recipe recently and they were saying to toss them in the boil at 10 mins. Last night there was some left over chiles from a can after cooking. I took tsp worth and tossed it in my bitter. It was pretty good.

I brewed a wit last weekend with about 40% flaked wheat using a similar setup. It ran a little slow, but thats the worst I've had.
