    Safbre T-58

    Anyone ever use it in a tripel? How was the final product?

    Imperial Stout Advice

    Yeah I'll probably stick with the oats but I'm still a bit torn on the yeast. I may just use US-05 to cut back on the price, but the WLP013 does sounds mighty fine. Anyone else have some input?

    Imperial Stout Advice

    I've never really made a big beer before... successfully... so I was hoping to get some advice on this imperial stout recipe. Ideally I want it to be thick, creamy, and have caramel/malty/roasty flavors. Here's the recipe I'm playing around with: 3 Gallons, shooting for about 9 to 9.5ABV 80%...

    Wyeast 3944 Uses

    I've never done it myself, but a tripel seems like it would be pretty great. It would probably be a tripel/wit hybrid.

    Do you ever drink BMC?

    Awww man, Franzikaner is InBev?!?! That's a shame. It's not my favorite weiss, but this bothers me still.

    Is anyone shipping rhizomes yet?

    I'm looking to plant a rhizome or three (hopefully Chinook...maybe Columbus) sometime in the next two weeks. Does anyone know of any vendors shipping this early?

    50/50 Munich/Wheat Hefe - Delicious!

    I'm going to try my first hefe soon and am playing around with a few grain bills. I originally was thinking 50:50 wheat to pils, but now I'm considering 50:25:25 wheat, pils, munich. Do you think it would be pointless to go 25% with those two? Or should I go all out with 1 of them?

    Critique My American Stout Recipe

    That would be an interesting read, but no worries if it will take a while. Is there enough roasted barley and chocolate malt? I'm not too sure what the percentages generally should be with a stout of this stature.

    Yeah, that may be true. Anyone else have some input?

    Critique My American Stout Recipe

    The wheat is there to give a little more complexity to the malt character as well as help head retention. I've heard of it being used in a few commercial stouts that are great.

    Critique My American Stout Recipe

    I want to brew a big, hoppy American stout before winter is over. I've never made a stout before so I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice regarding this recipe. Ideally it should be rich, hearty, malty, and roasty but balanced by a healthy hopping. So far I have: 4 gallon batch...

    Suggestions for an English Ale

    Yeah dry yeast is indeed much more convenient. Looks like I'm going with S04 for now. I think I'm going to pick up some English crystal/caramel for the batch too. A pound will probably suffice.

    Suggestions for an English Ale

    Doesn't look like I'll be able to get a hold of those yeasts before friday brewday. Does anyone dig WLP002 or S04 (which I'll most likely go with) in an English IPA or strong ESB?

    Suggestions for an English Ale

    Sometime this week, I should be in possession of 10 pounds of Maris Otter and 4oz of EKG. I'm looking for some ideas on what to do with it. A few that I've been toying with are: 3 gallon EKG/MO SMaSH barley wine (SG 1.090) 4 gallon EKG/MO IPA (SG 1.068) I can only do 4 gallon maximum...

    Celebration Ale - 2011

    Fantastic brew. I've never really gotten into it before, so I'm glad I finally did. It really is the quintessential IPA to me. Strange, I don't perceive the soapiness at all; not in Celebration at least. It's overwhelming in their pale ale though. However, it's still good, but that...

    Chinook IPA

    Perfect! This is exactly what I'm going for. I might make it a typical copper/golden/orange colored IPA, but it is tempting to try and impart that beautiful ruby color that some beers have.

    Chinook IPA

    Anyone else have some input? Also, I may potentially throw a little chocolate malt in there to darken it.

    Chinook IPA

    So, sometime in the near future I'd like to make an intensely piney, somewhat brutal IPA for winter time. Will Chinook give me the pine I want? Here's my prospective recipe. 4 gallon batch 74% 7 0 American Two-row Pale 21% 2 0 Munich Malt 5% 0 8 American Crystal 60L boil 60 mins 0.75...
