Just putting the finishing touches on this! Seriously the best money I've ever spent! Loving the drip tray too.

+1 on the flaked barley. Adds a nice silkiness like oats, but not as oily. I use flaked barley in my dry stouts.

A Manhattan a la Old Overholdt

Homebrew dry stout. Very first pour out of the new kegerator!

In short; YES. Kegging. You will understand after you keg your first batch. No mess, less time, fewer F bombs An aside: It doesn't taste different really in the end, but they do carb up faster

I LOVE Brown's! I used to go to the Brewpub in Troy all the time when I was in college at Union!

+1 to Homercidal about sweet/milk stouts. I brewed a milk stout and found it too sweet. the FG was around 1.018 for a 5% beer. Lactose in the beer doesn't completely ferment out. It was a nicely brewed beer but was too cloying.

+1 to OP's problem. I bought this exact product for my rubbermaid. The false bottom doesn't really sit flat on the table when placed there, its warped. I tried using it twice, but each time just either had a stuck mash or had a stream of grain running out of the MLT. I was very unhappy with...

What yeast strains are you using? are you getting very good attenuation? If your beers finish really low and have fewer residual sugars, very dry beers can have a lighter mouthfeel.

i would dilute it in some water and boil lightly for 15 min or so. I don't think much can live in honey though...

No. Boiling uncovered allows volatile flavors and chemicals to boil off. Always leave the cover off!

Homebrew Berliner Weiße and Landlord Clone. Yum

Oh jeez. I can only imagine...

63 gallons thus far this year! 29528+63= 29591

I think that lactose, a sugar, would factor into the actual OG and FG readings, so 1.034 should be accurate. Lactose isn't 100% fermentable, so it could lead to a higher FG, but 1.034 sounds kinda high - even for a big beer like this. It could just a coincidence that you have a stuck...

I've thought about this as well... I think that aeration is needed for yeast growth. Unless you are fermenting a 1.100 beer, I believe the yeast cake has more than enough yeast cells to ferment. Please correct me if this is wrong.
