Akbrew, I love that clear box, where did you get it?

Marty, I completely understand. After attending a few meetings Brew bros is best used as an in road for bjcp certification and competitions. What do you mean by mass brew?

Knkbrand: brew bros has a "beer friday" scheduled for this Fri night at fossil brewing. Starts at 4:30 and goes until whenever. Aug members meeting was last week. No sep members meeting scheduled yet.

Last night my s-04 was raging and had 1" of Krausen on top. Tonight it barely has any action and 1-1.5" of cake at the bottom. Should I be concerned? I haven't used s-04 before. Ferm temp is 68F +/- .5 in a refrigerator controlled by an sts-1000.

Cool. My mash averaged 156-158 so I'm looking forward to a slightly heavier body as well.

Got a batch of this in the fermenter right now. Wort tasted great!

I talk about brewing incessantly whilet at work.

I invite non-brewer friends to my brew days.

I talked with my local jimmy johns a few days ago. They are going to call me when they get their next bucket in. After thinking about it though, I'm going to get a better bottle for my primary bc i like seeing if my yeast is doing well or if my beer is contaminated before it's time to rack /...

roastglint- That is an awesome contact! Thanks! My carboy broke and spilled 3+hrs of hard work all over my garage on Sunday...

Is the mash out water addition just to raise the temp or does the extra volume of water have additional purposes? I am going to do this BIAB and i was just goint to turn on my burner for a few minutes to get the heat unless the extra water adds something to the process. Cheers! DP

The sugar is only to give the yeast something to snack on as they reanimate so its literally about a teaspoon. You could also use some dme if you were really worried about it. I've had good success from both.

I ended up deciding to hold off on the brew until after i moved and then forgot about it... haha I'll see if i can't spin up a 3gal batch in the next few weeks and let you know how it goes.

Troutbum, give it a few days and you'll be approved to the bree bros meetup by their guy. they have a beer night at a local brewery every last friday of the month. Next one is on 27feb. Location is not set yet.

Howdy! I'm cleaning out the brewing cabinet before a move across the country so we'll see how this turns out. It isn't too crazy but I haven't found any ESB or APA type of brews with this hop combo. -Grain Bill- 6 lb Light DME 1lb Crystal Malt 60L -Hops- Palisade 1.5 oz 6.7% for...
