BIG price drop. Looking to move this quickly! Selling a complete all-grain electric brew-in-a-bag system, along with a ton of extras (including an entire extra gas-fired system!). Asking a pittance ($399 OBO). Strong preference to sell EVERYTHING at once. Sadly selling because I've run out of...

With two young girls (3 and 5) it got to the point where I wasn't brewing more than once every six months, which wasn't really enough to be able to learn and get better (or justify using the storage space). And then we learned that one of our girls is celiac, so the idea of emptying a big bag of...

That 30a breaker feeds the subpanel. If I swapped it out with the gfci, where would I run the new wire from? Would I just splice into the line running to the subpanel?

I asked about that. The subpanel serves a furnace which consumes between 7 and 10 amps, but we'll almost never run our furnace and brewery system concurrently. The brewing system will pull about 21 amps. Based on that the electrician seemed to think we could just put the breaker in the subpanel?

I've come into possession of High Gravity's 240v BIAB system, and now need to figure out how to power it. From what I can gather, I will need to add a 30amp GFCI breaker into my panel, run 10/3 wire from the panel to the receptacle, and wire in a 4 prong receptacle. The run from the panel to...

Using a hydrometer.

TL;DR: OG - 1.072, "F"G - 1.030 (after a cold snap and successful attempt to re-pitch new yeast). Tastes delicious and strong preference to get this into bottles. What are my options? Several weeks ago I brewed a winter warmer for my very pregnant wife to enjoy postpartum in February. Brew...

Interesting. I'd purchased the ingredients before your post, but would like to try a similar recipe with the sugar addition you suggest. The biscuit was less than 5% of the total bill, so we'll see how overly heavy/malt-forward this ends up being.

Agreed that the hops combo does seem to clash conceptually. I looked to Jubelale for some inspiration, and Deschutes claims to use Bravo and Cascade to bitter, and EKG, Hallertau and some other lower AA hops for the wintery/spicy flavoring and aroma. I also saw a clone recipe floating around...

Planning a darker winter warmer type brew. Aiming for around 7% and just under 50 IBUs. Thoughts? Feelings? Too much chocolate? Enough hops? Grain Bill 11# -- Maris Otter 1.25# -- C90 1# -- Munich (10L) 1# -- CaraAroma .75# -- Biscuit .5# -- Chocolate 60 min mash @...

Okay good advice. Will do some more tweaking and probably give it a try this weekend. Thanks!

I've never done a mash addition before, but reading up on it a bit more I think you're right that it's wasted hops. I also agree that the 15 minute addition is probably not useful. Why move 60 minute addition to 15 min? One thought I've been having is just move the 60 min to a FWH. Updated...

Agreed as to the 15 minute addition. Was wondering if that might be too late to get much bitterness, too early for flavor/aroma (though I have noticed some Sculpin and Pliny clones use additions at 15 or 20 minutes). And yes - lawyer by day, homebrewer also by day :mug:

Hoping to get a critique of an aroma-forward IPA recipe I've been thinking about. Main question: am I getting too cute with the hop blending? Any other suggestions welcome. Thanks! RES IPSA IPA Boil Time: 60 min Batch Size: 5.5 gallons (fermentor volume) Boil Size: 6.37 gallons Boil...
