The following is similar to a couple of other Blind Pig clone recipes you could find online, but I'm adding the water chemistry instructions which I believe are important. This is very close to Russian River's fine brew! Cheers!! Type: All Grain Batch Size: 5.40 gal Boil Size: 7.15 gal Boil...

I entered my Ward water report into Bru'n Water and I typically use 80% RO for my IPAs for the mash and adjust with minerals and lactic acid. Should I also use 80% RO water for the sparge, or is it OK to reduce that to 50%? Is it generally better to use at least 80% (or even 100%) RO water in...

The instructions of my Blichmann Fermenator says: "...the CO2 gas from fermentation should be vented through the door or wall of the [temperature controlled chest freezer]". Is the prevention of CO2 buildup for safety reasons or because it can affect the flavor of the beer? Do I really need...

I have the Blichmann conical fermenter (Fermenator), which I love. Should I remove the fermenter from my temperature controlled chest freezer after dry hopping and before cold crashing and dump the trub through the sump valve? I haven't been doing this, but now I'm wondering if maybe I should...

I decided to take the plunge and adjust my tap water and check my mash with a pH meter. I input my Ward Labs water report into Bru'n Water and I can't manipulate the dilution with distilled water and the water additions to hit all 3 targets of sodium, bicarbonate and (perhaps most importantly?)...
