    Anyone brewed a 65+ % rye beer?

    I did a 100% rye malt beer and the viscosity was just too much. I suspect the 65%-75% range will produce similar results. Very snot-like. It was then I realized I'm not a fan of rye, except for chocolate rye. I strongly advise against brewing a large batch, as most will probably find it...

    Invert Sugar Oven Technique - Lid Or no lid?

    Nice work z-bob, I enjoyed your thread. I may have to try your method as well. Sounds like it's pretty hard to fail at this, as long as you don't overshoot the temps.

    What is your preferred acid for making invert sugar?

    For all y'all inverters out there, do you prefer lactic acid or cream of tartar when making the sizzurp? I'm getting amped to do some Ron Pattinson historical recipes and I thought I'd reach out to see what others have had the best success with. I've been reading up on these sources and I'm...
