    If first 15 minutes of mash was over 160 is it ruined?

    True, but it works for the typical cooler type mash tun.

    Brewersfriend will calculate your strike water temp and volume for the perfect mash temp every single time. The most I was off was maybe 2 degrees from target rest! It's awesome.

    Too much sediment in beer - can I re bottle?

    Short times too- 10 days from primary to bottle is a little quick. Patience! For me personally, primary is 2 weeks, and secondary is two weeks minimum. If you get multiple fermentation buckets (or Big Mouth Bubblers), and brew assembly-line fashion, you'll have a continuous supply of beer, so...

    Dry Hopping Reference

    Does anyone know of a chart or list of the typical hops and what characteristics they impart to the beer during dry hopping? Usually I will dry hop post-fermentation in a spider in the keg for 3-7 days. I've done a few searches but maybe my Google-Fu is failing me. Anyone have or know of such a...

    Help?!?! And not sure where I should post this. Wee HEAVY very Heavy

    Oh, I thought it was a pint or nothing... J/k, i've been mixing it with some other beers, and it's nice because I can adjust it. It's like having a beer concentrate on tap. If I want it light, I just tap a little into plain old sparkling water.

    Yeah, I like that idea. Also I'll try a weeheavy icecream float. Why not?

    Lockdown Beer recipe Naming

    So on a pepper IPA, do you boil the peppers in the wort? Or is it added after? If after, how do you sterilize the pepper component?

    Help?!?! And not sure where I should post this. Wee HEAVY very Heavy

    Just a little heavier than I got from this recipe the last time I made it. It was only like 8.5% - I must have gotten a lot better conversion in mash this time. It is a little burny, almost like straight bourbon. As far as off flavors, a touch astringent. Fermentation was very fast. Maybe a...

    What did not come in the mail today?

    I guess I'm lucky. Our LHBS is taking phone/email orders for pickup 2x per week. They are usually very well stocked with malts, yeast and hops. However, the batch I most recently ordered that I made on Friday, they were out of Marris Otter, they said I'd have to wait till Monday :confused:. Then...

    I'm going to let it age for a bit, as is, and see if it mellows out some. But yeah, in the meantime, I could pour half glass of lighter beer and put the wee heavy on top. Or better a weeheavy ice cream float? LOL kidding!

    It's currently in keg. I could boil water and carbonate it separately in another keg and then combine them. That would eliminate the oxygen problem right?

    OK, so I know there's probably a better place for me to post this. Maybe a remediation section? Let me know after reading if there would be a more appropriate section. What I have is a situation of too much alcohol. I know, seriously? I brewed a Wee Heavy Scottish Ale, and it turned out to be...
