I'm in the process of creating a Coffee Vanilla Porter. I've brewed this once before and all went well except a little low on the OG. This time I was a bit closer on OG 1.09 instead of 1.094. Target mash temp was 154 degrees. Started a little high at 158-159. By the end of mash it was at 154...

February 2013. I was 49.

I don't know where I got the OG of 1.065 and the FG of 1.016 in my recipe post. My software shows 1.059 and 1.015.

We used 1 lb of white wheat instead of .5 lb and added .5 of Cluster at flame out.

Yes we did end up brewing this. Turned out really nice. We got a little more efficiency than expected. OG ended up at 1.062 and FG finished at 1.016.

Thanks for the thoughts. I'll revisit my recipe and let you know how it turns out.

Thanks for the input. I have used Vienna before in my Nugget Nectar clone which calls for 80% Vienna. Turned out very good. Thanks again

The Sweet Potato OG ended up at 1.038 after boil Barleywine OG was 1.10

I brewed a version of this on Saturday (21st). About 24 hours later fermentation was going mad. Fermenter was plastic bucket so I didn't have a blow off tube. Had to babysit it for several hours. Burped the lid an put some weights on it so it wouldn't blow. Pulled the airlock several times...

How did this turn out?

I've brewed this twice already using BeantownRs recipe. First time was straight up and the second I added grapefruit zest. Both turn out excellent. Can't decide which one I like best. I just stepped up and bought equipment to do 10 gallons, so I will split it in 2 and give myself the best of...

Just emailed in for (1) more sack.

Thanks. Didn't even think to check the Saranac site. More info than Lake Placid site.

Or yeast. I'd assume an English ale yeast.

Has anyone tried to brew this beer? Would love some suggestions. Website says 38 IBU's, 7% ABV and 43 SRM. Has nothing regarding hops or grains used. Thanks

Just emailed my order for (5) sacks. John, thanks again. As I stated in my email, this order alone will pay for my mill.

Has anyone tried making this yet? I look forward to grabbing a 6er or 2 every summer and now would like to try a brew this myself. The website specs 2-row and wheat malt, Sterling hops, chamomile and Belgian Wit yeast. The big question is, how much chamomile?
