    New to All Grain

    Two handfuls is plenty, although if you do a slow lauter you should be fine regardless of rice hulls. More can't hurt, go for it. Throw in bottom of your mash tun and grain on top. Try to avoid stirring hulls upwards. As for recipe it looks good. Looks like EdWorts.

    Hopstand, no dry hop

    I do hopstands because it gives me longer to drink beer with beer and keeps me away from my pregnant wife :)

    How would you refurbish this kegerator?

    Perhaps just a spray foam insulate with another board/plexi on the open end?

    Weissbier Bee Cave Brewery Bavarian Hefeweizen

    Brewed this, kegged after 9 days, drank after 3 days carbonating (12 days total...) Wow. Just wow. This keg will be gone after my party this coming evening. And, I used 3056 (Bavarian wheat blend) opposed to the 3068 (weihenstephan) due to availability. Zero regrets.

    Need input --- '94 chest freezer worth it?

    Alright. I'm looking for a chest freezer to designate as a fermentation chamber and have stumbled upon a 22cu ft Kenmore chest freezer on craigs for $200. It sounds awesome (I could fit what, 6-7 fermentors in it?) and for $200 who could complain. Its model number says it's from 1994 but the...

    dissapointed in cane sugar for candi sugar

    I believe people say the outcome should be the same because the acidity of the wort should invert the table sugar giving essentially what you would have if you made candi. Maybe your ph was off possibly skewing your results? Either case I make my own candi, its another process I enjoy...

    Weissbier Bee Cave Brewery Bavarian Hefeweizen

    Hit 1.052 on the nose. Went to work, came home, wort was 80F. Pitched and opened a homebrew. Life is good.

    To those of you who brew outdoors

    I brew 5 gallon all-grain and store everything neatly and efficiently in my basement using 1 set of shelving. It's 6 feet with 4 shelves. In front of it I store the larger items, such as my mash tun and grain bins. (This includes my kettles, 7 glass carboys, and all your other paraphernalia to...

    It's Easy to Make a Killer IPA

    "Nutty honey flavor. For brown ales, Belgian wheats, bocks and many other styles." Ew.

    Imperial Stout Russian Imperial Stout (2011 HBT Competition Category Winner)

    Just brewed this, hit 1.100 O.G. And did a 2.5 gallon partigyle with Crystal hops with 1.050 O.G. Pretty damn excited!

    Is the crush my problem w efficiency? (PICS)

    Double milling at my lhbs used to work for me as well, hitting near 70% efficiency. But not for nothing, as I said earlier in a post, my $20-30 corona mill works just fine (as it does for Charlie Papazian too). I didn't feel like gushing money for a mill either and I'm more than satisfied. Plus...

    Please delete.

    I feel...funny...maybe it's the beer...maybe it's the day...but all I know it...I'd make sweet, sweet love to yeast, and let it ferment me all the way down to 0.999 baby

    Help me make a 1 gallon extract IPA recipe!

    A whirlpool is a bit different but yes basically a hopstand. Perhaps you could steep some specialty grain that would complement your hops? After using melanoiden in a Zombie Dust clone I always go back to it. Not sure what would pair with perle/cascade but perhaps looking into it. You could...

    Is the crush my problem w efficiency? (PICS)

    As the other poster stated, I found a bolt at Lowe's with the same threads (you can Google it I honestly forget) and removed the handle on the mill and screwed the bolt in. I didn't cut the head off the bolt, I just use an attachment that fits the bolt head perfectly. I can look tomorrow if this...
