Lagunitas 'Lucky 13' & Port Brewering's 'Mongo IIPA' Anyone know any close recipes of either of these two wonderfully crafted beers? I have been looking around for a couple months now and I can't seem to find anything even close. Thank you!

I have 20' of 3/8" copper tubing i've been using as an immersion chiller for my 5 gallon batches. However, since i started brewing 10 gallon batches, i need a more effective way of cooling my wort. I decided i wanted to turn my IMC into a counterflow chiller utilizing the copper piping i have...

I have been successfully brewing 5 gallons with a single batch sparge, but now i'm moving up to a 10 gallon batch. I can't do a single batch sparge for this size because of the size of my MLT is only 48qt, so i must convert to a double batch sparge. I'm wondering if i'm on the right track...

I purchased a Bayou 82 qt pot the other week and it came via ups just a few hours ago. It's a beautiful pot I have some plans for, but first i have to decide to keep it :( It came with some decent-sized scratches on the inside of the pot, perfectly perpendicular to each-other. They span about...

I have been using a 7.5 stainless steel pot for a couple years now to brew 5 gallon batches. However, since then I've got myself into all-grain brewing, and I'm having a blast. Actually, I've been enjoying it so much I decided to buy a new gas burner and a new pot to brew 10/15 gallon batches...

Hey guys, Just finished a 5 gallon batch of IPA last night. After I finished cooling the wort I waited a while (45 min) to top it off with an extra half gallon or so of water, then used a wyeast activator pack. I threw it in my closet last night and woke to find the temperature had droped...

This is my first post but have been lingering through the forums for some time now. I brewed a batch of high gravity IPA, but only ended up with 3.3 or so gallons by the end of everything. During transferring the beer between fermenters I got a chance to sample it, and found it to be excessively...
