You guys know better than me the beer converts in the first 15-20 minutes does it not so that temperature determines profile? Not that I think I would be able to taste the difference between 148 and 152.

Mashed in.

Is that the frozen stock in cubes and more pheasant?

Low and slow or you're doing it wrong.

Pheasant stock cubes, ham bones/diced ham.

Doing ham and potato soup since it's colder than something that's really cold out.

The taste difference you will notice will come from the different amount of attenuation. 152 will finish higher (1.012 for example) compared to 148 (1.009 or so). Hope that helps

Whatever idiot decides to open a brewery and go extract needs to be denied by TTB. Just save some time and throw that money in the trash.

Meh. If an extract brewery is going to manipulate water profiles, manage yeast appropriately, control fermentation temperatures, and build solid recipes, they'll do better than many of the all grain breweries that are opening up using tap water, ambient fermentation temps, crappy recipes, and US-05 for e'rything...

Two different roasts, don't know why I got three pics.

34 degrees outside. Seems like a good day to smoke. Having a Rico Sauvin. Half in the glass, half in the chicken's a**. View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1452452220.314178.jpg

Starting boil. Do Cluster hops always smell so pissy? I've never used them before.

12 min to boil same as last time. Who ever suggested carrying the mash in is huge. Carrying 8 gallons with grains outside was definitely physical. Went for the full hour for the mash started stirring it minute 55 stirred for a good five or six minutes carried it outside pulled the bag squeezed every last drop out of it started boiling at 12:05. So I'm looking at two hours and 40 minutes I think pretty bummed really. I'll get close to the two hours this is only my second beer with this rig

Anybody want it?

Empting the barrel and a saison will be fermenting in it

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

2-3lbs DME (aiming 1.045-1.055 depending on how big you want to go)
3lbs 2 row
0.5 lb Caramel 80
5oz Caramel 120
0.5 lb Chocolate Malt
1lb flaked oats
Challenger (enough at 60 to yield ~35-40 IBUs)

1oz Mt Hood
1.5oz Fuggles

Divide those up (probably wouldn't use them all) beteween 15 mins at flameout.

and mash at 150. And then use an English yest (I'm partial to 1469, but Notty, SO4, 1318, 1968/002, 007, whatever, they'll all work).

Just got done brewing this, finally. I hit 1.045 OG. I am going to let it to it's thing and see how it turns out.

Thanks again.

Thanks fins! now one more time in English please.

Thanks fins! now one more time in English please.

Mashing at higher temperatures will yield more unfermentable sugars, so the resulting beer will have a higher final gravity (and consequently more body). Mashing on the lower end leads to a lighter and drier beer because more of the sugars can be consumed during fermentation.

Having the last pour of Walloon Wit that I got from the brewery yesterday.

Bottling my Huna clone. It's really smooth for 14%. I'm picking up some tobacco flavor. Maybe from the peppers?View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1452455426.519579.jpg

I have 2 of them.

I tried it on a Bud Light that was room temp (around 70). It took the beer down to mid-50s if I remember correctly. Only time I ever used it. They sit in the back of the freezer and were forgotten until the ice maker broke about a month ago.
If you are a slow drinker, like my wife, it will keep the beer colder longer, but i don't have that issue.

Maybe you can use it to cool down a yeast starter?

Water. Going to my wife's friends baby baptism. No beer till we get back home this evening. Awesome way to spend my day off.
