Awesome. I will leave it be at this point. Thanks everyone!

Hello All, I just had a quick question on kegging/force carbonation. I have a keg of IPA I would like to serve tomorrow night. I chilled the keg overnight on Monday. Tuesday around 1 I set to 30 PSI and left for about 48 hours. Today I just purged the keg and set to 12 PSI. Can anyone...

The temp of the wort for the 1.032 reading was taken at about 75 degrees. The water from the tap I used to test the hydrometer was a little lower, and I got a reading of 0.992. I'm wondering if the OG in that case is actually 8 points higher. Still kinda low, but I could live with it... or...

Thanks for the input. I just tested my Hydrometer, and it seems as though that could be, in part, the culprit. In regular water, I'm getting a reading close to 0.992. In that case, would the OG actually be about 1.040? I could live with that.

Or... I was also thinking of just putting it in the primary. Maybe just a pound.

Hello everyone... Just brewed up a blonde ale yesterday, but it looks as though I got a bad crush with my mill, resulting in a low OG of 1.032. I'm wondering if it would be worth it to add some honey during secondary fermentation and make this a honey blonde. I was aiming for a low alcohol...

What would a good mash temp be for a lighter body?

Yeah, I typically boil for 75-90mins. Unfortunately, I only have access to pilsner malt where I am located.

Just wanted to get another set of eyes on this recipe... I'm also on the fence about the WB-06. My other options would be US-5, Nottingham or US-04. Going for a refreshing, easy drinking brew. Thanks in advance for the help! Recipe Specifications --------------------------...

Unfortunately, the Pilsner malt is my only option. Surprisingly, the IPA's and another standard stout I brewed all came out fine with it.

I'm not certain the purpose of the Crystal malt at the end of boil.. you may want to put this in the mash in case it just adds unneeded haze and little fermentables... boiling malt isn't generally the best way to utilize it, you wanna steep or mash. Just my opinnion I could be wrong. I like...

For yeast I have Nottingham, S-04 and US-05

Looking for some comments on this Chocolate Coffee Stout recipe I threw together. I live overseas, so I'm somewhat limited with grains (I can only get Pilsner malt, anything else I have to import). 9.25 Lbs Pilsner Malt 1.50 Lbs Quick Oats 0.75 Lbs Crystal 60 1.00 Lbs Chocolate Malt...

Would US-05 work okay for this?

Thanks for the help. I live outside the country and I would be shipping the catridges. I currently live in Bolivia and there aren't many options. I have a friend who is a homebrewer here who gets a co2 tank filled at the soda factory... But I can't get a co2 tank here and shipping would be on...

Hello Everyone, I am new to kegging and I had a quick question. Firstly, I am getting a 2.5 gallon setup. I am going to be carbing naturally (not a preference, I just currently live in an area where I can't get co2 easily). What I can get are the 16 gm co2 cartridges. My question is...

Great. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks for your quick response. So basically, I would either boil for the 1st 30 minutes without adding hops? Or, per your recommendation, if I wanted a more bitter beer, add the Columbus at 90 or 75 instead of 60?

Hey Everyone, I was hoping that I could get some advice on my hops schedule. I am going to make an all grain APA from Pilsner Malt (only malt available to me where I am located, in Bolivia), and I have noted that the recommend boil time is 90 minutes to drive off the DMS. I am making a 4.5...
