Ran some numbers this morning. My plan is to use 5.5oz extra light DME, a total of 0.15oz of hops (0.05oz @ 60, 20 & 5 mins). I figure, don't make it more complicated then it needs to be. According to the calculator I used I need 10 billion cells. So I'm going to sanitize a glass cup, tare it...

Sorry, been a little busy with various projects lately and this got put on the back burner. Though I do have plenty of DME and a couple packets of US-05 sitting around. Already need to run by my LHBS one day this week, so I'll pick up some Cascade and a few stoppers/airlocks for my 64oz...

I'm not necessarily trying to replicate a particular brew. That being said, Victory Hop Devil, Dogfish Head 90 min and Sierra Nevada Torpedo are some of my favorites. I'm more looking to keep some of their qualities in mind and brew something a little different. I like the idea of the spice of...

Folks, I'm hoping I might be able to get some advice from you more experienced brewers. I'm preparing to do my first all grain and want to do an IIPA. Here is what I have worked out so far in BrewToad. What are your thoughts on the recipe? I thought adding a little rye flakes might make an...
