    Brewing 3 gallons vs 5?

    I am on this boat as well. I have been doing 2.5-3 gallons now for 6 months and it works out much better for us guys that enjoy having decent selection.

    Blueberry Brew

    Try a protein rest at 122-125 for head retention, it is debated whether or not this actually works to aid in head retention. As far as chocolate and honey goes, use some chocolate malt and a small amount of honey malt as well. For coloring add 5-10% of a medium range caramel/crystal malt to get...

    How thick to mash this grain?

    Mash at a low temp for light mouth feel, maybe 148-152. +1 for suggesting beersmith it will make your brew days much easier. Also, I do 1.66 qt per lb of grain. Once you get everything dialed in you will figure out what your set up dictates or what you feel comfortable with.

    Best grains for a fruit beer.

    A lot of it depends on what you like to drink. You can fruit just about any style of beer you want and there is some beauty behind that. I have never had access to Soft Parade but have heard of it. Start with a style you really enjoy and do some research on recipes then go from there. I...

    White floaties

    Thank you very much, I had an inkling from looking around on here but couldn't find any picture for real evidence.

    White floaties

    I have seen a few threads posted on here but nothing too in depth on it. This is my second AG batch and I have had this IPA sitting on the secondary for about 2 weeks now. I noticed today when I checked everything before going to work these little guys were floating around the hop bag. Is it...
