extract

Hey y'all. This isn't exactly a clone, since I haven't had the beer in question. If you're unfamiliar, here are some examples of what it looks like: https://www.instagram.com/p/BfOzQeBFniB/?taken-by=brueryterreux https://www.instagram.com/p/BetT0GUFycW/?hl=en&taken-by=brueryterreux...

I am new to brewing and I am interested in brewing a hoppy IPA. I have two brews under my belt that turned out well. I really want to experiment with dry hopping. I am not sure if I should just buy a normal kit and make modifications like using citra hops/buy more hops for dry hopping? Or...

I'm brewing my first custom recipe next week. My plan is to do a basic extract IPA recipe but to use a blend of CItra ,Summit, and Galaxy hops. Any experiences in blending those hops? Or suggestions?

Hey guys, after about 10 ales under my belt, I want to give a lager a go in time for the spring. I have a dedicated mini fridge that fits my bucket and carboy, so should have temperature control figured out. I need a little help on the process, as I have seen multiple bits of advice on...

Hello All, I have received 6.6 pounds of Briess CBW Porter extract. I am looking for a very simple recipe to make a Porter with this extract. Does anyone have a simple porter (extract\partial extract) that I can use to make a quick batch with 6.6 pounds of this extract? Thanks

Since flaked corn is not an steepable grain that I can use in an extract recipe. What can I use to replace it? And what would replace flaked barley?

I brewed my own recipe that started with Northern Brewers Dragon's Silk extract kit as the base recipe. (See recipe here: https://www.northernbrewer.com/documentation/beerkits/DragonsSilk.pdf) My intention was to add lactose, bourbon soaked vanilla beans cocoa nibs and medium toast oak cubes to...

What have you guys found as the best method for steeping grains? Most recipes just say "until it hits 170 degrees" but I feel like that has to be a sloppy way of doing it.

Great segment on how to home brew a Hefeweizen from an extract. It provides a step-by-step approach to brewing from the initial boil to bottling and capping. For beginner home brewers, this is an EXCELLENT segment to watch as JC provides a great deal of expertise and delivers the...

In cleaning out my late father's house, we came across a GW Kent Personal Brewery, still in the box, with a can of Mahogany Coast Canadian Ale extract. I wonder if I could make a batch for homebrew for dear old Dad, but would not want to call it Botulism Bitter. 1. I cannot find any date on...

I'm a looking to try a wheat recipe. Some recipes I've looked at use all wheat extract while others use 50/50 wheat/barley. What's the effect on the taste between the two?

Hi all A couple of basic extract questions: 1. What is the difference between boiling the extract for 60 and 90 minutes? 2. Some recipes call for addition of part of the extract midway through the boil. I have been adding everything at the beginning and boiling for 60 minutes. How does the...

Hi all, Ok, so I'm a big fan of Abita's Purple Haze, so of course it was only a matter of time before I went for a raspberry wheat kit. (I'm still new at this.) I should have come on here sooner to read up on what all of you have to say, but... I didn't. So, here I am asking this: I'm a...

Hey Guys, I hope to do my first beer as soon as my primary clears up. I really want to do an Irish Stout because I love Guinness but would rather stay all extract if possible because this is my first beer. I see that a lot of the recipes call for oats and other grains that need mashing, is...

I have been hearing on here that I should add malt extract at the end of the boil (at around 15 min to sterilize). I am confused by this as most videos and information I have read have always said to add the malt extract right at the beginning of the boil (right after steeping any specialty...

Alright folks, I decided to take the plunge and get into the home brewing hobby. I decided to start simple so I bought a Munton's IPA Bitter extract kit, followed the directions, and today cracked the first one open and gave it a taste. I think it came out alright.... it's the right color...
