    Peanut Butter & Jelly Beer

    Just ordered some. Since I already have this beer made, I may toy with adding a little and see what happens. If success, next time I attempt this beer, I'll just do both flavorings.

    Peanut Butter & Jelly Beer

    You can buy smaller amounts. My last trip I bought 5 lbs of sunset wheat, 5 lbs of biscuit, 20 lbs of light munich 10 lbs of dark munich, full sack of carolina gold 2-row and pils. It was $1 / lb when I got it last year...but I think the rates went up to $1.25 / lb now? Don't quote me on...

    Peanut Butter & Jelly Beer

    I have bought my last few sacks of grain from Carolina Malt house and the experience has been phenomenal all around. The people running the malt house are super helpful and friendly. The selection is very good and you can get some specialty malts (not all). The quality of the grains is good I...

    Peanut Butter & Jelly Beer

    Actually just brewed this last month and forgot about it in the fermenter cold crashing, mainly because I didn't have an open keg. Well I kegged this on Tuesday so it's not quite carbonated yet. I will say the raspberry hit the mark at 2oz of the flavoring. It's very present without it being...

    Peanut Butter & Jelly Beer

    I'm on a kick lately to try different things and I'm next thinking to make a peanut butter and jelly beer. I've had a couple good ones over the past couple years that I can recall and I think I want to try and mimic this brown ale that a local brewery makes. I don't have their recipe so I can...

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    Here it is in all it's glory. I did a grain to glass video on my YT channel if anyone wanted to check it out. The beer is good. I've never had the Twisted Pretzel from Shocktop for comparison. Tasting notes: I can definitely taste the pretzels though not as strong as I hoped. The salt...

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    Just updating everyone. The batch has hit terminal the other day. I rose the temp at the end to room temp for confirmation as well as some diacetyl rest. I am now cold crashing since Weds night and should be moving to a keg this weekend. I snuck a taste yesterday and while it was warm and...

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    This yeast is going to town! Only 4 hours after brewing, I already noticed activity in the airlock. This morning, I see it's well on it's way. Don't mind the lack of data in the first couple hours. I updated my RPi and forgot to reattach to Brewfather with the new Cloud URL.

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    The brew day went great, and got close to my numbers. I did tweak the recipe based on some feedback so now it's up to the yeast and we'll see what happens! I was able to distinctly smell sweet pretzels in the fermenter so I'm hopeful it's at least in the ballpark of what I'm going for. I'll...

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    The Mash. I took a little over 1 pounds of fresh pretzels from Philly Pretzel Factory and broke them apart/open. Smells amazing!

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    Great suggestions. Unfortunately I only have like 1lb left of MO on hand. I could swap 1# for 1# of the 2-row for Munich and add in the MO I have. Not sure how much that will make an impact with the little bit of MO. I was also trying to be conservative the first go around with the...

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    Well it's been done before and with real pretzels AFAIK. I'm hoping to brew on Sunday if I can swing by and grab the pretzels tomorrow at a nearby Philly Pretzel Factory.

    New Launch - Free Test for Wireless Dual Probe WiFi BBQ Thermometer

    Inkbird is my standard for temp monitoring in the brew house. This looks great! I’d love to give it a try.

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    I've made a Gose beer a few years back and put 3/4 oz in a 5 gallon batch at 10 mins left in the boil. It turned out fantastic. That's what I was basing my measurements on. But I will dial back the sea salt addition, can always add more later.

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    Interesting. I've heard of all kinds of flavoring extracts to beer. I would've never though pretzel to be one of them!

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    I've used this much in a different recipe before and was pleased with the results. You're right though, can always add more should start off a little less.

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    I was thinking to put the pretzels in the mash. Dry hopped sounds interesting too. Maybe if the flavor doesn't come out in the final beer, I could dry hop with some more and see what happens. Thanks for the idea!

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    As do I but figured why not. A friend of mine really liked that beer and wanted me to try and recreate it. I'm up for the challenge.

    Pretzel Wheat Beer

    Cool so maybe I'm close then on the calculations. I was going to add 1 pound of pretzels. Sounds close to your local brewery's recipe. Thanks!
