I have always got more fruitiness using S-23 than I wanted. Your fermenting schedule is the same as mine and I too get good results with that.

I agree. Opening up a store would be the last thing I would be doing right now.

I see the tip right there when I pay with a credit card. Annoying. Same thing at a ball game.

Brewing a West Coast IPA tomorrow. Using Quebec grown Cascade hops for the first time. US-05, Rahr 2 row.

Me too. Brewing since 1979 so I would say yes, I have brewed more than 500. I did lose a few years of brew notes when my computer crashed a few years ago and lost everything. I now post online my brew notes so will never lose anything again. Munich Helles is the only lager I brew when I do brew...

Yup, send it back. If you have the packaging, send it back exactly as you got it and demand a refund.

Yea, I still use it. No reason not to. Yup, I am also a dinosaur.

Has Escarpment Labs yeast made it down to Texas yet? Made in Guelph, Ontario.

I just don't brew as often as I used to. I have all of these empty kegs in my basement and I would love to fill them all, but not anymore. I am close to 70 now, and just can't drink as much as I used to. Since I live in Canada, buying beer is expensive and I try not to do that a lot.

I have a beer blog which dates back to 2008. I used Hallertau with an AA of 8.7%. The good old days.

Utilities and taxes are high here in Canada and that all has to go into the price of ingredients. They said they...

My god!! Convert those prices to Canadian dollars and see what you get. What's going on? Unbelievable.

One of the biggest homebrew stores in Canada went out of business in Toronto. This one has raised their prices at least 4 times in the last few months. I guess they are taking advantage of supply and demand.

Shipping is making German malts too expensive. I am back to buying Canadian malts now.

I am more comfortable making starters. Once I figure out how much slurry I really have ( always a guess ) and just go ahead and make a starter with an over build. Most of the time the starter isn't that big depending on how much slurry I have.

I am finding that an over build is the way to go.

Don't forget a diacetyl rest.

Brewing a Cream Ale today. Hoping the 15 IBU isn't going to make this taste too sweet. 7% corn sugar will dry it out I guess. Horton Ridge Organic Pale Ale Malt 1 lb. Corn Sugar the last 10 min. of the boil. Hallertauer hops. US-05
