Thank you for the suggestion. If I add some Vienna/Munich, how much should I go with? Would 1 lb be enough?

Just looking for some feedback on this recipe I am going to brew this weekend. My first single hop brew. TIA 12 lb 2-row 1 lb caramel 40 1.75 oz Amarillo 60min 1.25 oz Amarillo 5 min 1 oz Amarillo Dry hop 5-7 days 1 oz SafeAle 05

That's what I needed to know. Much thanks!

I purchased a small container of StarSan about a year ago. I haven't brewed in a while and was wondering how long it will keep unmixed. Thanks!

This is intriguing. Thank you for the reply. I didn't know reboil was an option. So I guess I should treat it like prehopped liquid malt?

I am participating in a local brewery's first "Wort Transformation" where they provide the wort and we take it home and add what we want. I was thinking of just some dry hopping to try and make a tasty IPA, but I would also like to know what some you might add to make it more interesting. That...

For those of you that use the Campden tablets. At what point during brewing do you add them? Thanks!

Any tips on how to keep the siphon and bottling wand from getting clogged the next time I try this recipe?

Then I shall not worry about it. Thanks all!

So, I bottled my Blue Moon clone last night and I hope I did not screw it up too bad. The orange peel kept clogging up the siphon and the bottling wand causing bubbles in the hose and I am afraid that I got too much sediment in to the bottling bucket (I accidentally let the siphon hit the trub...

Thanks all for the replies! It looks like I will be bottling in the next couple of days.

I brewed up a clone of Blue Moon a little over two weeks ago (with orange peel and coriander). I did not filter out the peel or the coriander, it all went straight into the fermenting bucket. I have tested the FG and it has been stable for the last 3 days. Should I leave it in the bucket for...

Could one use orange zest instead of peel? What difference would that make if any?

I ended up leaving out the carapils and doing the Centennial at 60 and the Amarillo and Cascade at 10, 5, and flameout. It is currently still in the primary. I will probably bottle it up this weekend. I hope it's tasty!

I have a similar question. What if I dry hopped in the primary (10 days) but then moved the batch to a secondary container where it has been for a couple weeks? I was not ready to bottle at the time but I needed the bucket so I just transfered it. Will this have the same "grassy" taste or, since...

I just need to know how adding DME late in a boil effects the hop utilization. Do I need to add more hops or less? Thanks!

Yes, this will be a 5Gal. batch after I top off. Relying again on hopville's beer calculus site it has my ABV @ 4.8%. Is there another site that I can go to that will help me with the calculations? (I don't have beersmith yet).

Sorry guys. I suppose asking about the hop schedule without providing the rest of the recipe is being kind of vague. This is my first attempt a "creating" my own recipe and I wanted to shoot for an APA with slightly less bitterness than normal. Below is the recipe I will be going with. It is an...

What if I were to boil .75 oz of centennial for 60 min then boil 1oz Amarillo with 1oz Cascade starting at 10 min and just adding at little at time until flame-out?

Hello all. My question about hops usage is this; can Amarillo be used as a bittering hop? I am creating a Pale Ale and I don't want it too hoppy. So, my schedule is as follows: 1oz. Amarillo 60min .5oz cascade 10min .5oz cascade 5min I also have 1oz of centennial but again I don't want...
