I am about to take my new eBIAB setup for a spin this weekend. I am planning on a stout that will serve as a starter for an RIS. I love really chewy stouts, not thin and highly carbonated stouts. Although I'm not shooting for some super high ABV beer, I want a similar appearance and mouthfeel of...

I'm currently brewing a smores stout which I came up with by tweaking a chocolate stout extract recipe. Added Graham crackers to mash which is the only change from original recipe so far. Just transferred to secondary last week and have noticed a white film settling on top of the beer. I'm...

We all know that beer in cheese can be some of the best parents out there. Doing some research I have not found and Chyna find anything I’m brewing beers that have a cheese flavor. Like a blue cheese barley wine for instance. Does anybody know if such thing is possible? Or does anybody have...

Hi all, After figuring out our preferred honey mixture (2/3 random dark honey, 1/3 buckwheat honey) I resolved to make three gallons. Whenever I up a recipe, I worry that I'm going to forget to multiply one of the ingredients properly. This is Bray's 3-day mead I'm talking about. When I...

So I have been brewing for about a year now, using basic recipe kits from Northern Brewer. Now that I am more comfortable with the process, I am thinking of trying to change up the recipes and expand my game. For example, I love coconut beers, so I was thinking of brewing Northern Brewer's nut...

Hi all, Can anyone tell me when I should dry hop and bottle? Im unsure from what I have read? https://learn.kegerator.com/recipe-cascade-smash-pale-ale/ Should I drop hop now (9 days in FV)? Is it a total of 14 days in the FV? Thank you! :)

I spent a good deal of time yesterday reading the entirety of pappy's epic recipe thread. I was left wondering how close Pappy's recipe was to undiluted FCAJ concentrate, sugar wise. I spent some time this morning cranking out the numbers. It appears that pappy's recipe is roughly 36% sugar for...

Hi Folks, I’m planning my next few brews. While sipping on some Bale Breaker Top Cutter I decided to search for its recipe. Thanks to BYO there’s a recipe. (Let me know If the link doesn’t work) It would be fun to have others join in recreating this. OR have folks chime in if you have made...

I've been writing blog posts about the different homebrews I've made so far and it's actually become quite the list! If you're interested please do take a look. I include the recipes as well so maybe you'll find something that sounds good to you too! :) Homebrewing a Belgian Table Beer...

Looking for any feedback from anyone who may have done this or something similar. I will be making a sour soon with some pumpkin and placing this into a 50lb pumpkin I just picked up. I plan to prep the brewed pumpkin by roasting in over and adding at the end of the boil. The vessel pumpkin...

I’m new here so I hope this is in the right forum; let me know if it should be moved. Working on a recipe to brew in ~November 2018 for Fall/Winter 2019. I’m shooting towards a high gravity beer that falls alongside either Belgian Quad or Old Ale. This time last year, I brewed an old ale with...

I am going to brew this recipe https://beerandbrewing.com/thresher-coffee-saison-recipe/ (also here https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/680127/thresher-coffee-saison ) but it is quite vague, on sparging especially with the second link not mentioning it at all. can anyone help me...

Pictures here: This is an experimental recipe I tried out last month. I'm still pretty new to meadmaking so feel free to give me any advice on how to improve this recipe. I must say, out of the few recipes I've made so far, this is my favorite. I made a mistake while bottling so there is a...

Hey guys. I just threw this recipe together in order to use up some bits and pieces I have lying around. Any thoughts? I have extra amounts of each grain which could be added if they will improve the recipe: Style: American Pale Ale (extract) OG: 1.046 FG: 1.010 IBUs: 43 SRM: 6 ABV: 5%...

After tasting two different Bruts that some breweries are doing up in WA, I am going to go for my first attempt at this style. Going to brew on 8/26 and looking for any feedback or tips to get this dry style of IPA. 6 gallon batch (30 minute boil) Grains: Marris Otter 1823 - 8# 2-Row - 4#...

Brewers often use the weight of malt and hops when writing recipes, but this sometimes makes for confusion due to varying brewhouse efficiencies, batch sizes, and even units of measurement. I propose a different way to write recipes so that they may be universally understood and utilized...

I wanted to do a Pumpkin Ale using my Pico but they don't offer any such packs. Whats a good base beer (style) for a Pumpkin Ale that I can just add the flavorings to the keg?

I've been experimenting with using kits to make tasty and fun ciders with consistent results (as the concentrates are rather consistent in flavour). I've mainly been using Mangrove Jacks Craft Series Apple Cider and Mangrove Jacks Craft Series Pear Cider. As far as I can see, these can be bought...
