    Looking for easy drinking Pale Ale DME recipe

    Just looking for a decently mild Pale Ale recipe. I've always used LME but want to try DME this time to see if I can get rid of that underlying flavor. I'm an IPA guy but the lady of the house has been begging for me to make a beer she can drink. I'll be making a 10 gallon batch, Thanks guys!

    Pitching at 80 F then cooling down after fermentation starts bad for beer??

    Thanks for the advise everyone. Next time I will cover the fermenter airlock stopper with foil and chill the wort down to proper pitching temperature. Or would it be better to use a solid stopper so no air can be sucked into the fermenter during this cool down period?

    Pitching at 80 F then cooling down after fermentation starts bad for beer??

    I have been making 10 gallon batches and am only able to chill down to around 80 F with my chiller since the water isn't that cold around here. So I pitch at 80 F and then once fermentation starts I start chilling the beer, if I try to chill earlier then I get suck back in the fermenter. Most...

    Anyone ever individual bottle prime?

    Today I bottled up my blind pig beer and I wasn't exactly sure how much beer I had in the fermenter. So I bottle primed each 12 oz bottle with 1/2 tsp of corn sugar. Now do I need to swirl each bottle to mix the sugar up or will the yeast eat it just fine while it is piled up on the bottom of...

    Blind Pig extract kit ferentation temps

    Last week I brewed up a batch of blind pig using Morebeers extract kit. The paper said to ferment at 68 degrees but for the past week it has been fermenting at 66 degrees. Should I let it finish up at 68 degrees? Will it help it get to a lower final gravity by raising the temp 2 degrees? I'm...

    Fridges for Blichmann 14.5 gal Ferminator

    I'm looking to buy a new fridge or cooler for my Blichmann 14.5 gal conical. What brands/ model do you know that will fit this thing? It measures 18.5" across and 31" high. I would like to get one of those glass door ones like the GDM-12 but they are pretty expensive. Also I'm just worried if I...

    Ferm. Chamber for an SSBrewtech 14 gallon Conical

    What model Trues are those? I have a 14.5 gal Ferminator that needs a good chamber. I already have the flashed stc-1000. I really like the look of those, can you lager with them too?

    My first wheat beer tomorrow.

    My hefe's would be done from boil to pouring in a glass in 10 days, 3 in the fermenator at 72ish then bottle for 1 week. I usually don't get bombs but on some brews 1 or 2 would break. Great summer beer!

    MoreBeer Pliny vs. Northern Brew Plinian

    Thanks, I have a MB Pliny batch dry hopping at the moment. It's around 8.9% but super smooth, a lot better than some of the $8 bottles I buy.

    Does my brew plan sound about right?

    Ok so now It's at 1.022 gravity 72% attenuation. Should I ramp up the temp to 70 f over a day or two or just set the thermostat to 70 and let it do it's thing? Does it even matter raising the temp over time?

    Where do you buy LME ?

    I think the cheapest prices on LME I have found are at williams brewing. They have a bulk deal where you buy 32lbs (4-8lb packs) for between $54-$65 before shipping. They are in california so the closer you are the cheaper shipping is. I bought there wheat LME and made some great Hefe's!
