    I need help understanding this recipe...

    Hi Guys, This may be a noob question. I've been brewing for a couple of years and I's got the basics down. However, I am confused by this format for a recipe on Brewersfriend.com... What are these amounts supposed to be? Gallons? Note the first row description says strike at 181 but the...

    Preparing Spent Grains for Chickens

    In regards to compost, are the grains considered Carbon or Nitrogen? (Brown or Green?)

    Question for you All In One users...

    Do you end up with grain remnants in your boil? Does it cause a foam? (similar to when you add hops) Do you see stuff floating around during the boil? I tried using a grain basket in my boil kettle instead of a mash tun and I am really disappointed with how much "stuff" got through despite...

    I lost a gallon?

    I think I'm gonna add a gallon of water and hope for the best. If I just use a gallon of distilled water, right out of the bottle, I should be fine from a sanitation perspective, right?

    I lost a gallon?

    It's all grain. The recipe called for a pre-boil volume of 6 gallons which I was on target with. So, I must have boiled off too much. The last time I looked at the volume was with 15 minutes left and I was flirting with the 5 gallon mark. I do find it plausible that I over boiled because I...

    I lost a gallon?

    Anyone ever follow a 5 gallon recipe but then end up with only 4 gallons in the fermenter? I'm not sure what I did wrong unless I magically boiled off an extra gallon in the last 15 minutes of the boil. This recipe calls for an OG of 1.053. I'm at a whopping 1.070! Should I let it ride and...

    Upgrade Mis-hap. What now?

    Hi guys! I'm looking for some advice. Long story short, I bought a grain basket with the intention of using it directly in my boil kettle, combined with a sous vide stick to conduct a more precise and convenient mash. I was so LASER FOCUSED on making sure the dimension were right for my...

    Motorizing a DIY Grain Mill

    Hello, I am thinking about motorizing my DIY grain mill but I have no idea where to start on motor selection. What's a good HP? RPM? What size pullies should I go with? Any advice is appreciated.

    Preparing Spent Grains for Chickens

    My situation is a little different. I'm in a urban setting and noone near us has coops. My buddy is over an hour away so I don't seem him for up to a couple weeks at a time. I read somewhere that "wet" grains should be used within 3 days so I was wondering what I need to do to extend the...
