Mine is estimated to start at 1.063 and end at 1.010, so it should be pretty dry.

I guess a good question when talking about mouthfeel and sweetness is what are some of your favorite (readily available) reference ipas?

Yep, beer smith.

I don't have a pump, would the same thing be achieved if I just turn the chiller off, let the hops soak for 20-30 minutes and then start chilling again?

Gonna try 001 I think... Also, with a hop stand, what do you guys do? Do you cool under 170ish and then put them in? I was listening to BS podcast and they mentioned a hop stand above 170 will still get some isomerization, so adds bitterness. Thought about chilling till under 170 and then...

True. That was what I was using before I revamped it to be dryer. Maybe just American ale or us-05?

Just curious on how to brew this one, how long to let it sit, etc... This style seems like there's less information out there... Going for a honey, strawberry, wine like braggot... 50-60% honey base. Mash 4 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) US 2 lbs Vienna Malt (Briess) 1 lbs Caramel/Crystal Malt -...

Bam! I hope you're right because that would put me close to the target OG. Thanks for your help and time!!!

In my recent batch, a honey wheat, I missed my OG by .019. My OG was 1.03, which I thought was too low for what I wanted, so I steeped .5lbs of caramel 10l in .5 gallons, then boiled and added 2lbs of DME... Added that to fermenter (within 24hrs of fermentation) and it went nuts, but it's quited...

Thanks for the replies! I steeped .5lbs of caramel 10l in .5 gallons, then boiled and added 2lbs of DME... Added that to fermenter and it went nuts, but it's quited down now. Took a reading and am at 1.008. Going to give it a few more days. My new question is: How the heck to I calculate OG...

Got some DME and going to add to primary. Thanks guys! Since I over pitched and it's already fermenting, I think this will work for the most part.

It's AG. The beer itself looked good, I'm just worried that the ABV will be way to low, like below 2%.

Ok, I made a honey wheat last night and my OG was off. Here's what I did wrong: I forgot to add .5lbs of 10l, which I had to buy separate, so just forgot. Found that out and added .5lbs of dark brown sugar to the boil to make up for ABV lose. OG came in around 1.03, when it should have...
