My kids (6, 5, 2.5) help me out a lot on brew day. If I tried to brew when my kids weren't around I would hardly ever get to brew. Kids want to be around their parents and I think it's good for kids to see their parents doing something they enjoy. Hopefully we're just creating another generation...

Anybody else having issues with the Mr. Malty website today?

Clothing Optional is great, I think the White Noise Hefe is Uber Brew's out of Billings though. Also a great beer! Can't wait to stop in Butte and try some of your offerings.

What is your pre-boil volume going to be? I usually shoot for a 7.25-7.4 gal pre-boil volume when I brew beer like this if I want to end up with 5 gallons.

More than likely for a double IPA. Or make a yeast starter. Depending on what you OG is and how old the smack packs are you could probably just pitch two packs. Happy Brewing!

Took the survey, brisket going on the smoker at midnight tonight. Pale ale, IPA, Irish Red, and Brown Ale on tap to get me through that chore :mug:.

Nice, thanks!

I have a pound of Brewers Gold I'm trying to get rid of, pellets though, if you want to swap.

Came into a pound of Brewers Gold from a friend. Would like to trade for a pound of something else. These blend nicely with Centennial and Cascade but I don't need 2 pounds.

If you are interested in joining a homebrew club in Miles City, MT or you are from the surrounding area send me a PM and I will send you the details. We are meeting Friday, Feb. 28. 2014.

Very nice experience dealing with GTG. Brad seems very motivated to provide superb customer service. He sent me an e-mail confirming that my order to make sure that I hadn't double ordered some malt. I had double ordered on purpose but a lot stores would not have checked and taken the money. GTG...

I use pellets to dry hop and normally only leave the beer on the hops until the pellets dissolve. The best hop aroma I have achieved was when I dry hopped for only 24 hours. Usually for an IPA I'm dry hopping with 4 oz. and it has never taken more than 3 days for the hops to dissolve.

From one of my trusted sources (BYO, Zymurgy, Brewing Network) I recall hearing that doubling the amount of dry hops that go into an American IPA gives fantastic aroma characteristics. Just a thought since you have 15 oz. of Simcoe nectar.

How many oz. do you have? You could split it into 2 batches depending on how many oz you have. As far as contact time, I usually rack the beer to a secondary vessel at day 14 or whenever the yeast has finished its work and then add the dry hops on top of the beer and wait for the hops to...

You likely got plenty of bittering from the ounce of 7Cs at 75 minutes, but this beer will probably have restrained aroma and hop flavor with 1, one ounce addition at 10 minutes. Hop flavor and aroma seems to be best achieved by adding hops 20 minutes or later in the boil You could try dry...

Took the first draw off of a Caliente/Columbus hopbursted IPA last night. Very nice aroma, reminiscent of Citra. Not as tropical as Citra, leans more to the stonefruit side. Lemon and lime aftertaste, blends nicely with the pine and citrus of the Columbus hops. Get a slight sulfur note in the...

I have 2 tickets to the Spring BrewersFest in Billings, MT this Friday, May 31 2013. I will let them go for $15.00.

You may already be planning to do this, but when I brew a milk stout I add the lactose @15 minutes. Recipe looks good, happy brewing.
