    PLEASE let the Northern Brewer buy-out be a hoax!

    I think InBev will get a lot of insight into trends in the marketplace through this acquisition. The market has been fragmenting big time with most growth in craft - to stay relevant Inbev is going to have to chase those fragments.

    Maine Beer Company Dinner Clone

    Honestly, I think MBC just used obscene amounts of Mosaic in the dry hop. Just had some Mosaic IPA at Prohibition Pig in Waterbury VT and it reminded me a lot of the fragrance of Dinner. I have 4 oz Mosaic plus 6 oz of citra on standby for my next batches' dry hop. Can't wait!

    Maine Beer Company Dinner Clone

    To be honest I wouldn't know if it is Chico. I had harvested Conan before and it had a distinctive peach aroma - definitely not that. I was curious if Dinner's yeast imparted flavor characteristics so I harvested it. The smell off the carboy is harder pin down and does not seem to lend a...

    Fermentation Theory: Oxygenate the starter, not the wort

    I was asking myself the same question and ran into this old thread. http://maltosefalcons.com/tech/yeast-propagation-and-maintenance-principles-and-practices talks a lot about yeast propagation. Even with a small amount of yeast, it appears that you could get about half the needed population in...

    Extract w/ Specialty vs. Partial-Mash

    I've got ingredients on route to start a partial mash like you. Like you I've been doing extract+specialty grain until now. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f39/easy-partial-mash-brewing-pics-75231/ is a great article that shows how cheap and easy it can be and is how I plan on doing it. I'd invest...
