Yeah ive got the tutorial to beer smith but will probably buy it soon i might check out some of the free ones soon, took me a while to figure out how to order the grains and im still worried if I ordered the right ones haha but its ok nothing can stop me :ban::ban::ban:

I was telling this story to a buddy of mine and he used a fully auto Air soft gun on some cats wandering into his yard and after a few times never came back...

Ive got my HLT MLT and Brew kettle ready to be used setup everthing and looks like its gonna work, so I went ahead and ordered the grains to make EdWorts Haus Ale cause it seems pretty simple, Ready to do all grain! :ban: Ill post pictures of my first experience cheers :mug:

Ya that really sucks my grandpa used to have a live cat trap that he setup in his garden cause he was tired of cats ruining his crop so he would catch cats and drive about 5 miles and drop them off in a park or something, Sardines and Tuna work to catch them.

have some in my fridge but havent really had any before so I its a first impression for me but it tastes pretty good once you have enough of it :tank:

So went to the Local Brew Shop and they said that you can automatically tell that the brewer used a aluminum kettle... But I trust you guys more than them so I went ahead and bought a kettle 60 qt kettle at a restaurant supply for 89 bucks with lid so I'm pretty happy and almost ready for ALL...

Math and what not aside that settled ALOT of questions I had im going to order the supplies and set up my All Grain equipment soon Thanks Buddy

OK Guys so I now have a 15 gallon rectangular igloo cooler to work with here i know it will help some way im just REALLY new to the all grain world so would this be good for a MLT or a HLT i could use another pot for an HLT cause all an HLT is for hot water correct?

Ok thank you for clearing that up haha So, if I find a 10 gallon pot(to have plenty of room) and This cooler you speak of im ready to do all grain?

Ok then ive just got a bunch of all grain lingo mixed up and my ideas mixed up haha, well to throw the 5 gallon cooler out of the mix I am setup for basic extract brewing, ive got a 5 gallon pot a regular turkey cooker burner and thats about it... What would i need to start all grain? I know i...

Will a round 5 gallon igloo cooler be big enough for a Hot liquor tank or Malt liqour tank?:confused:

You better give me one just in case he doesnt have a sense for good beer haha :ban:

Ya what I came up with is a VERY small rasberry flavor I'd suggest stirring alot and if more flavor is desired add 100% juice

Brewing up a easy hefe today hopefully it wont be to cold outside, learned some new brewing tricks that i want to try out, ill be enjoying my other two brews while brewing a third :ban:

So i Made a Hefe with the intentions of putting in rasberry extract from midwest supplies.com BUT I put it in at the recomended time(kegging) and now my beer has no rasberry flavor at all... not even a hint of rasberry. So I was thinking of going and getting some puree and adding it any thoughts?

Ya thats the whole thing i dont have the recipe sheet anymore, it probably would have had the FG on there, I take readings just like you do and i dont think there is anything wrong with my hydrometer I took another one today and it dropped ever so slightly, so i just said screw it and racked it...

It was Called hefe 1 or something of that sort from a local store, maybe i can call the store and ask them what its supposed to be im still fairly new into the testing my beer thing you guys have any tips on testing?

I was told by another local homebrewer that you should turn it up to 25-30 psi to seal the lid like the previous post said then leave it at 25-30 for a couple of days until it becomes carbd then bring it down to serving psi 5-12 psi either will work:mug:

I have just topped the three week point on my hefe, I lost the original recipe with the FG on it does 1.002 sound right? thanks in advance :tank:
