The chocolate maple porter. Sat on trub for 21 days, bottled with 2.5 TBLSP of honey, bottle conditioned for 14 days, with 2 days in the fridge...amazing brew. Doing a big batch of this sometime soon. Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

Did a 2.5 gallon batch on Sunday. I did a full volume mash, but the temp was way too high at 160-162 F. To make up for my low OG post-boil (1.043), I dissolved a pound of table sugar in bringing my OG up to 1.052 in the fermenter. Additionally, I had a half ounze of Hallertau in the fridge and...

Yeah, just convert down by a fifth. Your water ratios will remain the same and your boil off wont change. Use a 1.25 to 1 lb ratio on gour mash and youll be fine. Also I recommend BIAB for those small batches...too easy Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

Interesting responses. Was just curious what people would come up with. I dont use personally, but I was thinking how to brew with it. Might be a mild surprise as far as aroma and flavors. Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

You using a turkey frier? Mine has a timer on the burner, I just reset it every 10 mins or so Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

Interesting...a green grist. Would the oil survive the boil? How about "dry hopping" a couple of buds? Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

New brewer stepping up to 2.5 gallon batches. Looking for a club or like-minded brewers near my area. Any leads in Pueblo or Pueblo West? Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

I live in Colorado and now that MJ is legal for recreational use, is there any application in homebrewz? Be careful you dont tell on yourself..:) Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

+1 Once you hand out a couple bottles, have a couple friends over and they try it, then sit down to enjoy...your last bottle. :( I just dropped $150 2x for buckets, 2x better bottles, an autosiphon, and grain for a 2.5 gallon Edworts Haus Ale . Dont get me wrong, I started on 1 gallons and...

Agreed, but the bigger your trub, the more volume you will lose. Probably not a big deal on 5 gal batches, but its huge on mini batches... Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

Oh man! New brewer here, Im in!

Does the immersion chiller save that much time from an ice bath? Took about 45 min to get 2.5 gal from boiling to pitch temp. How much more time saving is a chiller? My LHBS has a small coil for 45$. Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

Works great when used properly, but dont let it hit the floor; brittle as glass almost. Buying 2 more. Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

Starsan...no rinse...rack right on the foam...food grade..I had to manually siphon this morning..swished it from a fresh batch and went to siphoning...worth every penny Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

Poor man's brewing setup....$40 turkey frier kit from Walmart. Comes with a simple burner and a 30 qt. Aluminum pot. Havn't done a 5 yet, but did a 2.5 gal on Friday...easy peasy. Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

Yeah, not very durable. Just as I was drying getting ready to bottle a choc. Porter, mine fell out of the damn washboard onto the floor and broke the bottom piece off the transfer tube. Had to manually siphon...thank God you can swish with Starsan. Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

Apologize for not getting back to your question faster. I added a pic of what I made. As far as the question about honey for bottling, yes, my 1st experience with the 3 TBP of honey, I had gushers. It could have been imcomplete fermentation because the beer was really sweet, but since I have...

Sure will! Just moved it to a warmer room to finish up the ferment. Im curious to taste how it comes out. Sent from my SGH-T699 using Home Brew mobile app

I dried out a grapefruit peel for the Grapefruit Honey Ale and at the same time, scraped and dried out the peels for 4 large oranges. Anyway, I threw those (all the orange peels) in at the end of the boil for a BBS Summer Wheat I did a week later. They boiled for 9 minutes. Anybody can tell me...
