    Greetings from Aiken, South Carolina

    Recently retired and recently started brewing beer. I wonder if the two are related? I have completed a half dozen 2-gallon extract and/or partial grain brews and moved into 5 gallon all grains. I'm still working on setting up my brew station with a 15 gal. kettle, 10 gallon cooler mash tun...

    Beginner IPA ideas / recipes / best kits

    I've only just completed by first batch of homebrew (an American pale ale) and I was pretty pleased with the results. But now I want to make something stronger and hoppier, so I want to brew a very hoppy IPA. Unfortunately I don't have access to a kettle so I can't boil at this early stage in my...

    Wanted to brew something a bit different...

    Wanted to brew an "off the wall" Belgian Beer with enough hops to call it an IPA and well.... I don't know what to call it and need some help! The hops didn't come through like I had hoped so now if I call it an IPA I feel like I will be hog tied and horse whipped! I was going for a hoppy...

    First custom recipe

    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?

    Centennial/MO SMaSH IPA

    In a recent thread, I got some advice for building a SMaSH MO/Mosaic IPA to reintroduce myself to brewing and to learn my new equipment. However, for a few reasons (one being price point), I've realized I can't go with Mosaic. Instead, Centennial looks to be within budget, and I know I enjoy it...

    Loss of hop aroma before bottling.

    Hey guys, this is my first proper post so I hope it is in the correct area. Please have it moved it if is better suited somewhere else. I recently brewed an imperial IPA (1 gallon) which tasted great when I tried a little before bottling, during the check of the gravity after 2 weeks...

    Feedback on my first recipe: 1 gal red ipa [extract]

    I'm new to these forums and to homebrewing. I got into this because I love red IPAs (Green Flash Hop Head Red IPA is my favorite beer), but I have trouble finding them when I buy beer, so I figured I should try to make some myself. My first two batches have come back okay, but not great, and I...

    An Economical recipe

    I am trying to tailor my first all grain recipe ( in the last 5 years) to work around buying in 50lb bulk bags of grain so I broke the bag into 2 batches each yielding (in theory at least) 12 and a half gallons of beer. I am not sure about the hop quantities though, i am modifying a recipe i...

    Boost Bitterness with Hop Tea?

    I've been browsing the forums a lot, and I noticed a few threads dealing with poor hop utilization in wort with a high starting gravity. I'm did a partial wort boil (boil gravity - 1.152) for an IPA and project my IBU's to be about 35. I'm a hop fiend, so I was going to dry hop when I racked...
