Hmmmm, not so sure now … I don't see how I get from AAU to IBU. I know there is a calculation, but I would think the software should do this from within the recipe. p.s. I am also trying this in BeerSmith3

I think I figured it out. I will have to see the AA value on the hop package and plug that into the software and then adjust mass to achieve the AAU value stated in the book.

I am getting back into brewing after many years and striking out to do some brews that didnt come in a box. I just unboxed my new Grainfather after moving interstate (what a pain, but glad to be out of NY) and bought a book with brew recipes (BYO Book of Big Clone Recipes). I am not sure how...

thanks, it was a dry yeast packet. Will give some of your suggestions a try. I am investing in a stir plate setup as we speak!

thanks. Straight up would likely be best, but I was thinking I could save on materials if the bines grew up on angled lines. This would let me use a shorter vertical section. Wood? Steel or PVC piping? I'm thinking wood.

I will be planting with a southern exposure but have a dumb question to ask. Should my rhizomes be planted to the south and the bines grow up a string to the north, or the other way around?

Just got my Magnum rhizomes from Ray - very fast shipping and EXCELLENT rhizomes. Very easy transaction. Hats off to Ray.

How can we do a transaction? I have some Willamette starting and need to get a bittering hop too. Maybe some Magnum? thanks!

This farm is 10 minutes from my house.

I would be very interested in some Saaz, Nugget, and centennial if possible. Thanks for the generous offer. Please PM or respond in thread when you get a chance!
