So should be ready to rack this to secondary in a day or two. I noticed that in your all-grain recipe you prescribe 4 cups of espresso beans and in the extract you prescribe 4 cups of brewed espresso. Which one do you recommend I go with?

Day 10 of fermenting an extract NEIPA and I'm long overdue for my dryhopping schedule. After three days of straight-up dumping goop out of the blow off tube, it has a krausen that just wont quit. I added some fruit at day 7, but I'm wondering what the consensus is here as far as how long to wait...

Finally got trough all the posts on this thread. I finished my kegerator last week and it's awesome! I scored an awesome retro fridge on CL for $125 and a few weeks (and beers) later, behold! http://imgur.com/a/pduIQ Now to get rid of the excessive head it likes to dispense. Can't for the...
