    Late DME/LME addition on an IPA

    Ok, I ended up biting the bullet and getting a 5 gal stainless pot. The 10 gal I have barely fits on my stove... Brew day went well with the new pot and I did it completely inside. Only downside is that my 6gal glass carboy cracked in the cleaning process, which I guess is better than it...

    Late DME/LME addition on an IPA

    I'm in Boston. And not in a suburb as most people who live in a 40 mi radius of Boston claim to live in "Boston". I live on the third floor of a triple decker, so outdoor space is limited and cleanup is a PITA... Basically no access to water as it's shut off, and when I clean carboys I make a...

    Late DME/LME addition on an IPA

    So the intent was to top off the wort once added to the carboy to get to 5 gallons. The boil-off is a good point and I hadn't taken that into consideration. What if I add water throughout? I'd like to stick to a 3 gallon pot if possible... RE Bittering: What if I added that addition at 30...

    Late DME/LME addition on an IPA

    Hi Folks, I've tried searching a bunch, but nothing is really answering my exact situation. Here's the story. I'm brewing a 5gal batch of IPA with 4 different (boiling) hop additions. The main bittering hop is Chinook. I'm now constrained to my kitchen, which is small and I don't...
