    American Pale Ale Cascades / Orange Pale Ale

    Just brewed this one for the 1st time today. Everything went smoothly except for one big Oops - No coriander. How important is the coriander to the flavor profile? Most discussion appears to center on the orange and hops additions. Am I OK leaving the coriander out or does it really add to...

    High FG - Did Fermentation Finish / Options?

    Thanks for the responses. Oh well, I'll just have to write this up under lessons learned. Before jumping into the bottling process, take a series of gravity readings. I think I've read that about a thousand times in various posts on this forum. You'd think it would sink in. I was so...
