    blackberry wit... what to add??

    Be interesting, Wheat beer should be at least 40% malted barley, what is the Alpha on the hops 2 Oz is a lot for a wheat beer, your IBU should be under 20 if you want the fruit flavor to be the star. 2Lbs of fresh or frozen berries in the secondary for 2 weeks will give you the flavor (unless...

    Wasp in my wort

    Should be fine, the thing about infections is which bacteria gets a foothold. most home brews are "infected" to some degree, but the yeast (which is bacteria) wins the fight for food and kills off the invaders with alcohol. Remember you are pitching billions of cells, there are likely hundreds...

    How long is your brew day?

    Finding time is my issue, So trying to get the time down. For me it is a matter of crush while mash water is heating, get everything ready during mash and sparge, clean up mash stuff while wort is heating, then fast clean after draining (I use a therminator, and our ground water is nice and...

    What is that syrupy feeling after the finish?

    Help me come up with a brew!

    What kind of beer do you want to brew? I can think of 5 different styles off the top of my head with the Hops you have. Even not knowing the Alpha and being unfamiliar with a couple. My "Signature" brew uses an ounce of Sorachi Ace.

    Vendors.

    AIH does not appear to be, but that is good to know, because that explains why the AHB site isn't as good as it used to be in selection.

    Anyone else annoyed with newer breweries using cans?

    Funny question, any brewer that knows what they are doing knows cans are a much better medium for storing and transporting beer. Modern cans impart no flavor, and provide full light protection. People have for decades commented beer is best from kegs..guess what modern cans are same. No skunking...
