    Gas Burners with Love TS and Pilot Light Demo

    At those prices, I would go electric ignition. You can put together each burner for under 100 bucks. Much cheaper if you can get scrapped valves and igniters. I'm getting ready to build my second Brutus and will repeat this component. Considering high pressure as opposed to low this time.

    Best Oktoberfest reciple?

    No, problem. Let me just make sure my brew partner doesn't mind sinceit's essentially his recipe. Also FYI, we did pull a decoction. KD

    Best Oktoberfest reciple?

    For whatever it's worth: I co-brewed a Marzen with a friend; he used 2206 and I used 2124. The 2206 batch placed first in the SW Regionals, mine was an also ran with mediocre scores and no flaws. The 2206 beer had more character and the malt came through nicely. The 2124 was pretty neutral...

    I'm Thinking... 09/09/09 Barleywine

    Ok, I'm guilty this swap. I will get mine out soon, I promise. I have to say, they are more DIPA in character than BW, so drink em up if you want. I'll toss in something good for your patience. KD

    American Pale Ale Lake Walk Pale Ale

    I brewed this as an IPA with no grain modifications other than using Maris Otter. Turned out great, but I don't use US-05 as I think it dries out the beer. The key is Dude's hop schedule. I like to use the old recipe with Centennial, though I cut back the dry hop quantity. The extra floral...

    Belgian Tripel Belgian Tripel

    I'm shooting for a St. Bernardus Tripel with some honey and citrus notes. Would you say you got those in this recipe? I know WY3787 throws off some honey. How did the bitter orange peel come through? How long until it was ready to drink? Thanks!

    Generally about 1 1/2 inches in a plastic cup, enough to produce a head. The problem with visual is that aroma is the first field filled out on the scoresheet, with appearance second. It's only worth 3 points though.

    Dry Hopping/Secondary/Cold crashing question

    I know bottlers who cold crash. I believe there is enough yeast left in suspension to do the job.

    First All Grain Try

    That's called a mash-out infusion. It's an optional step designed to stop conversion and aid in run-off efficiency. I use one, but many very fine brewers do not.

    First All Grain Try

    you will typically get about 9 points added to your 5 gallons of wort per pound of DME. I strongly urge AG brewers to use Pro-Mash or similar. It makes these kinds of corrections very easy.

    First All Grain Try

    Making on-the spot corrections like you did is going to become second nature soon. I like having a refractometer for this reason. I would switch to 90 minute boils if you can. This allows you to stabilize your boil and check evaporation rate before your first hop addition (except FWH). It...
