My wife has cranked the old school youth crew hardcore. Have Heart on right now. Why must I love straight edge hardcore so much? Makes me want to dance. While I drink a beer. Pale Mild.
 
Seriously. I thought the same thing. Are you watching both rollers turn?



Take the whole thing apart, and clean it. I was about to smash mine, had the EXACT same problem. And then after thorough cleaning it worked fine again, and has since. I'm not sure how many batches you've put through yours or how you clean it in between, but it's probably on par with how many I put through mine, and while I didn't fully break it down every time, I always brushed out dust really well followed by compressed air. Eventually it wasn't enough.


Hmm ill have to try that in the morning. Still need to crush the other half of the grain for saturday. I dont ever clean the mill, maybe a good compressed air spray down once a year, thats about it. Thanks for the advice, Sherlock Bromles.
 
Pretty sure I called CAD Brosephine like six hours ago. Just to save you some time.

I don't get it. Sorry Bro's.

BTW. Here's a band @Qhrumphf probably liked back in the days.

So, last week when I was brewing a hoppy cascade/citra pale ale, I started cooling to 170-180ish for my hop stand/whirlpool. Went to make my first non-liquid meal of the day (was like 3 pm already...), came back in what I thought was a few mins later to find the thermometer reading 80...not 180. Considered heating back up and just said flocc it, and threw in 2.5 oz cascade. Not too worried about it, dry hopping in another week or two with 2 oz citra and 2 oz cascade - but just wondering if that 80 degree "whirlpool" addition will contribute anything at all? Pre-fermentation dry hop?

Probably not a whole lot... But 2.5 oz Cascade is a drop in the bucket. Still fairly cheap, So no big loss there.

I'm sure you got something out of it, but it was probably minimal. What's the OG on that?

A 4 oz dry hop will add plenty of aroma punch, if you're really worried, add another 2 oz of cascade or citra or both to the dry hop. Aroma = flavor for as long as the strong aroma lasts.

Yeah, cheap enough, not worried about that.

Was 1.062. Hopefully not a complete waste. Only bittered to about 50 IBU. 9 oz hops total, most in late additions. Slightly high OG for a pale, low IBU for an IPA... WLP007 to chew through it all pretty well.

May just ride this one out. Don't have extra on hand and don't feel like driving 30 mins out of my way or paying shipping for a few oz extra hops. Damn you, day drinking/brewing!!!
