I use spent grain on food for my family frequently. I typically blend the sg with whatever liquid the recipe calls for, just for a smoother effect. They do co tain some soluble fiber still, a lot of roughage, a fair amount of protein still, and surprisingly, still some carvohydrates. The carbs...

Just finished my keg of Piwo. Red wheat malt cold smoked over maple for 1hr, wetted in a bowl of water for a few seconds ds and then drained. Grain bill was only 6lbs so smoked it all and then let it rest in a paper bag for 2months before brew day. Great beer for standing over the grill cooking...

Yesterday Kegged 10g experimental cream ale, just 2row and Aldi brand corn flake cereal. 1050-1001, US-05. Higher than expected og and lower than expected fg. Also kegged 5 g piwo Amerkanski. Home maple smoked red wheat malt. 1028-1003, US-05.

Food process 1-1.5 c with the milk for my favorite pancake or waffle recipe. Tastes very similar to IHOP harvest grain and nut pancakes, my favorite. The waffle version is similar to the Kodiak power waffles my kids love, though the price tag is steep... Or I just let them cool and rake into the...

sounds interesting, may give it a try myself...

How big of a batch? Maybe double the sugar and hops and then dilute after fermentation. Get the wee beasties motivated more...? If you are looking to fill a 3 gallon keg I'd be inclined to make a 1 gallon batch @ 1.48 right in the water jug and then dilute it in the keg.

I did a RIS/Dry Irish awhile back. Both turned out well. I agree, no more yeast, just time.

Haskap/honeyberries were doing so well I took some cuttings from them yesterday. Took four cuttings each from my two varieties, boreal beauty and boreal beast. I want two of each to take and ill transplant them out this fall or spring. Then I'll have 6 honeyberry plants!

Hb are pretty resilient I hear. Good luck!

Tincture is the flavor agent soaked in a neutral spirit for a day to a month or more. In your case I'd stuff as much mint as possible into a Mason jar, fill w vodka or ever clear and let sit for 3-4wks. Any extra that is not used for the mead can be used as a mint extract in baking etc. When I...

Likewise have raised beds filled w a mix of log chuncks and large branches, soil i dug out from the bottom of the bed before placing the logs in, and topped w bagged soil from HD. As the wood and other filler materials decompose they add nutrients and really hel ppl w water retention. Look up...

Week sounds ok typically but given the hot temperatures and questionable planting time I'm a little surprised anyone is shipping now... Dependent on where you live, of course. May check shipping window, carrier, and refund policy just in case they arrive in lousy condition. I ordered my...

I have 2 varieties, I mistyped. Boreal beauty and Boreal beast. Sorry for the misidentification x2!

How many berries did you use per batch? Tasting video says 1lb 12oz, while the fermentation video says 2lb 12oz Looking forward to trying this...in a couple years. Maybe reduce the #berries per gallon on the borealis to get a more mild flavor? Mine are all borealis beauty and beast from Jung...

I planted honeyberries/haskap this spring for the same thoughts. As well as bee balm, lemon verbena and excess basil for herb wine/mead. Made a really nice lemon lime basil wine a couple years ago.

I also do BIAB and overnight mash. I'll mash out in the morning w boiling water to get the wort runny again. If not overnight, I'll let the mash do its thing while I run errands or do yard work or something. Not real picky on the timing. Likewise once the boil is rolling and stable I'll stay...

Dangit, did the abbreviation wrong, even though I know better! Joe's Ancient Orange Mead. I rack the clear mead straight into bottles, careful not to disturb any sediment. I always put the last cloudy sludge in a separate mason jar in the fridge to let it settle again. And then have my first...

Sounds like JOAM, my first mead as well. Let it ride, it'll be fine.

hb mild aged w a chip of boubon soaked oak in a 500ml bottle. Bottled oct2018 a bit sour, thoroughly over carbed. Followed by a "cask" mild from a polypin in my basement. Happy mild may!

HB Vienna (ale) and evening dishes. Had one w supper too, pulled pork tacos. Seemed appropriate.
