I totally agree; I used wildflower honey, and I definitely got a floral essence in the background which was very pleasant. Otherwise, you won't notice it.

Yes, and they are still awesome.

Enjoy! English ales are so damn good at least in my opinion. There is some good info in this thread if you haven't had a chance to look over it all. Also Ron Pattinsons site is a gold mine for good english ales. The link to his site should bring up a bunch of bodds recipes.

That's a great point.

That sounds like the perfect project for the innovators out there.

Yeah, but I'm guessing that's because there is no infrastructure and California is always expensive as hell anyways.

I saw Toyota has a great hydrogen engine design and you don't need a battery. To little to late possibly? Electric has started to take hold. Tech News World link

You buy the fridge first then convert to kegerator. Covert ops.

Sorry to hear that. I wouldn't pay that exorbitant fee either. Almost sounds like they made it up. At least you have supplies to brew with still. Happy brewing despite the slight setback! :bigmug:

Yes, mash pH changes throughout the mashing process, but most of the conversion is done in the first ~20 minutes or so. John Palmer in HTB 4e suggests taking a sample of mash pH 5-10 minutes into the mash (pg. 341) as we generally care about mash pH during conversion. It's better to check pH...

Maybe you are lucky that you can't necessarily tell. I can definitely tell the difference when different hops are used. I'm very sensitive to different hops, and some I absolutely do not like.

But but we have beer... 😀😀

Sounds like you have quite a few brews in your future! Brew on lol. I am also subject to this phenomenon when I've had a few too many adult beverages. :bigmug:

I haven't brewed for 8 or 9 months. I don't plan on leaving the hobby it's just that going back for a second degree is keeping me a bit busy these days. I will come back with a vengeance when the time is right though!

Nothing new regarding blending. Isn't the original New Castle Brown Ale the result of blending two different beers?

Monster Energy acquired them not to awful long ago, I believe last year. Still though looks like the market is retracting.

Welcome, this is a great community of brewers! Lots of good information here.

Yeah, they love it still. They stream movies and all kinds of stuff. The receiver has a warming feature that keeps snow melted off of the unit also. For an area without access to comcast cable or something similar it's the next best thing in my opinion. They haven't had any problems with it...

I had this exchange a while back and thought I'd share. Bracc was cracking a joke about my tilt hydrometer fermentation curve being jenky lol. He will be missed.

He will be missed. He always kept conversations lively on the forum. RIP :( Cheers :bigmug: friend!
