Yeap, I sprayed one today, that’s what reminded me to post about this topic 😉

I know this is not a homebrewing topic but I just noticed that insects die almost instantly on contact with Star San. I had plenty of Star San in spray bottles that I normally use for brewing and one day by accident (curiosity mostly) sprayed a bunch of spiders in the back patio and they all...

On another topic separate from conversion and enzymes, are there any concerns of excessive extraction of tannins from the grain husks as a result of such extended mash duration?, @odie have you experienced any excessive bitterness or astringency in your brews?, not sure what are the exact...

I will be hooked if it’s themed like The Office but instead of a paper company it is a malt supplier/microbrewery

@MaxStout I’m now wondering if it’s based on Maillard reactions if mash decoctions will also be impacted by this misfortune..

Very limited research online but found a couple pointers, one of them confirming @VikeMan aldehyde’s point. https://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/jf300749r https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0733521022000534

Happy brewing everyone!, my memory is a little bit muddled on the details but a few years back I ran into an online presentation (slides) detailing a mathematical equation (or multiple equations) the folks at Equilibrium Brewing developed for hopping beers efficiently. I roughly recall this...

Everyone, ended up using the incognito - damn that **** is sticky, it’s like your wife asking for your credit card.,, if you don’t like to have a field day when cleaning and have no complete access to all equipment surfaces (i.e you ferment in glass carboys) I will recommend staying away from...

As many have said here, I will recommend against using too much honey malt unless you are brewing a brown ale or something along those lines. I use honey malt mainly for color adjustment with additions around 1-1.5%, as honey malt gives me that orange tone I’m always looking in my NEIPAs. This...

How about Magnesium Chloride?, Nate mentioned it took him years and years to develop “Secret Sauce”, is it possible simple salt additions of gypsum and CaCl take that long to develop?.

@isomerization +1 I remember spending some time looking at the PCRs and absolutely there was no match for 1318. Will be great to refresh the pictures again (thanks!). We’ve seen few times in the past that TH has mentioned part of their process is all about stressing their yeast (one I recall...

Agreed, using the equipment video as reference it seems that anything around 1-3% (i.e Crystal 60 example) is done by hand, anything above that but below 30% is probably supersacks and anything in the 60% and above is based on grain silo. As for the secret sauce it looks like a soup of white...

+100 this video explains it all 😂

Yeah and what does 5% Carafoam does?, nothing.. you got to have 15 if not 20% for it to have some effect, also I’m sure he uses Crystal 60 for Julius as you can see in the old Julius and even in the King and jjJ versions that deep darker reddish color. What about water profile sulfate-chloride...

@Clyde McCoy 100% I agree, I recall tasting the yeast burn typical of LAIII in their ‘Trick’ DIPA which I wasn’t a big fan so I’m sure they’ve been using it sporadically. Same for other ingredients like flaked grains and different hop varieties. But when it comes to the Julius series, the...

@Clyde McCoy seems like “Hoppy Thing” ‘Decoy’ recipe #2… should call their homebrew batch this week ‘Project Find the Decoy’.. LOL This is a good way to distract people from getting deeper into the secrets LOL This will make a solid IPA for sure but not a Julius clone which I’m afraid people...

@Mousetrapbrewery a Brew Magic Video just came out in YouTube, is that what you are referring to?

Thanks @Thorrak !, pretty good answer for something that has no taste and no experience brewing - reminds me of my 16yo teaching me how to be an adult after reading a couple articles.. Another question for the masses, in the equipment video, Nate mentions ‘Maillard’ reactions when talking about...

Has someone tried asking ChatGPT to write a thesis on how to brew a Treehouse clone?
