Subscribed. Love this beer. Let us know if u get any closer with this recipe! This ones been added to my brew list.

I'd be interested in hearing how this turns out! PM me if you'd like. Really curious about red x.

5.5 gallons Meyer lemon witbier brewed with golden naked oats and white labs 410 platinum wit strain. 5 gallons mosaic-heavy APA based on hophands clone (80/20 MO/flaked oats) with a few minor adjustments.

Funny, I'm having the same exact issue with my Belgian wit. I pitched wlp410 on the 14th (9 days ago), and my mash temp was about 147 when I was shooting for 152. I've been slowly ramping up from 68, just hit 72, and the krausen persists. I haven't taken a hydrometer reading yet though. Trying...

Good luck with your brew on Sunday! This is an excellent recipe. When I brewed this last year, I did a decoction mash, and the results were very good. Brewers will argue that adding some melanoiden malt will produce a similar effect, and there have been blind tastings where people have been...

I'm just curious what your thoughts on this might be, folks. I'm thinking a Marzen with bavarian lager yeast, 65-70% Red X, Vienna, some caramunich and maybe a bit o' special roast to round 'er out. Noble hops, of course. Opinions?

Let us know how it turns out! I'm interested in changing up the hops in a future brew and mosaic/cites sound like really good choices. Funny you should mention a higher mash temp, I brewed a ten gallon batch of this beer yesterday and I did just that-- while my first batch tasted delicious it...

Hello everybody, quick question: Can I use a connection stem to chain together my secondary regulator and my gas manifold? Like this one: http://www.midwestsupplies.com/regulator-connection-stem-left-hand-thread.html Thanks for the help, -c Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I did not use a muslin, it was a nylon bag that came with my brewing kit.. I compared it to some of the other hop bags I had lying around (that I have never used in any way) and the mesh is definitely not as fine. Could've been a grain steeping bag or something (idk, I jumped right into all...

Got it, gelatin it is. Thanks for the help, folks. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Great tutorial! Do you gelatin dry hopped beers? I read that it could strip aroma/oils.. This pale ale had a massive 6 oz dry hop. I suppose if I don't put gelatin in it I could run the risk of getting a grassy flavor from all the particulate. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Thanks for the response, will that still work with beer being already carbonated? I've never used gelatin before. I did find a guide online. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Hello all, I'm looking for some advice to fix my beer. I dry hopped in a keg for the first time about a week ago, and apparently the mesh bag I used wasn't fine enough for pellet hops, as I now have hop particulate in every pour. My first four pints were practically sludge, and even after...

First of all, this beer tastes delicious! I ran into a problem Im hoping one of you can help me with: this was my first time dry hopping in a keg-- I sanitized a nylon hop bag I had lying around and a shot glass to weigh it down. Added the hop blend, suspended it to the keg, and racked my beer...

I really appreciate you taking the time to reply. The grist bill is as follows: 13.5 lbs Maris otter (3l) 1lb 6 oz flaked oats (2l) 4 oz red wheat 8 oz crystal 40 8 oz special b (180 l) .21 lbs chocolate malt (350 l) I suppose it's time for me to get a proper ph meter and stop the...

Hi all, So, I'm brewing a Winter Warmer tomorrow and I'm chiefly concerned with getting my mash PH in the optimal range, as I normally brew lighter colored beers and simply use a little acid malt with my flavoring/profile additions. Using EZWater XLS spreadsheet and inputting my grain bill...

Thanks everyone, I think that I am just going to make like an 800 ml starter of low gravity wort and then see where that takes me... so long as i open the jar and everything smells OK.

Hi all, So I'm trying to use yeast that I washed way back on Dec. 12 of 2013. According to Mr. Malty, my yeast is only 10% viable. I have only 14 ML of yeast in the pint jar. SO here's my question: how big should my starter be for 1 gallon of 1.077 wort? Process: intermittent...

We use a fair amount of wooden utensils in my household for cooking and etc.. they are usually sealed with food-grade mineral oil. This is what crafters usually use in place of more common wood sealants when they make wooden spoons and such. So, that seems like a pretty safe option to me if you...
