A friendly place for friends who drink

[Psylocide]

Pulling a psy and testing my ipa five days in. Sitting it 1.017 so i ramped the temp and gave it a little nudge. Pretty happy if it doesnt drop any more though, easily one of my best beers yet if i dont funk it up.

Nice hop combo there, one of my favorites.

Rye come through much?

Pretty sure he just puts Rye in everything.

There is a nice subtle spicy aspect to it. Not terribly sweet considering how high the gravity still is though so I think the rye is helping to counter that. I cant wait to dryhop and bottle this bad boy! :rockin:

Just when you think that you have people on the right track, they prove you wrong. I think I see a graduate student losing their financial support soon.

The post doc(Chem E., and that's not his name) that is also working on the project is great, but the other guys just isn't getting it.

If you can get Schlafly Grapefruit IPA, try it. I think it is just as good as GF Sculpin.

I've only done a few beers with a fair amount of rye in them before. Any other allegations you wanna throw at me, big man?

I'll go. You're like 12, and you're producing alcoholic beverages illegally.

I think you need more artwork on your walls if you're not going to construct a more open-space floor plan, other than that.. no. Just trying to be part of the conversation.

Not guilty!

We do have an open space floor plan.

Had a meeting the other day and they were talking about vacuum dehydrators and how to decrease the water content in air systems and produce drier air to the tools.

Asked if they had tried mashing lower.

No one laughed.

Someone did in Dallas.

Eifel Tower!

Pretty sure it's cause his name is Rye-n. Water and soup. Thinking seriously about a beer for conference call at 1 ...

That big blue wall says otherwise Rye-guy. Can I call you Rye-guy?

So, just had chicken and waffles for the first time. I will be eating this every day until the day I die. Topped with house made slaw and bourbon pickled jalapenos drizzled with honey. Dessert was a nutella and marscapone whipped cream topped Belgian waffle. Jesus Howard Christ, best lunch in a long, long time.

Back on topic... hey guys, I brewed my smoked porter and pitched last Sunday, but the airlock isn't bubbling?

I looked through the hole and saw krausen, but I'm just worried that it isn't fermenting.

Thoughts?

Thought about using gorilla glue to attach the lid and make it air-tight, would that be feasible?

TIG weld would be better. Plus you're using an inert gas, so you won't risk the problem of oxidizing your beer like if you used oxyacetylene. Plus you get the benefit of the smoke that's bound to ensue. HTH. HAND.

I suspect that's to lend itself to clever names moreso than anything flavor related.

• Rye Not Porter with Vanilla
• Why the Rye smile
• Rye Smile IPA
• Rye PA
• I Rye I Rye Man (Jamaican Lager, infected obviously)
• Rye Rye Rye Delilah (Something with cherries in it)

Anyway. Rye

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

I checked on the beer that I brewed a few weeks back last night. It looks like it has a thin layer of krausen still.

Anyone experienced this before? I have never had an infected batch, but from the pictures I have seen it does not look to be infection. It will be three (3) weeks in the fermenter this Sunday. I think I'll grab a gravity reading and rack over to secondary and let it ride a week or two.

Can't you see that sparkly thing on the right. Guessing it's a fancy mirror frame?

Guessing the fiance picked it out.

Sometimes. I've had a couple of batches where it never all flocced out, even once fermentation was done.

HAha I would first just like to thank 77 for making this thread. What a ride it has been so far! (insert joke about Wes's mom)

Pretty sure it's cause his name is Rye-n.

Awfully clever :rockin:

O, you meant my house. The office is open floor plan, the house is 92 years old, so not so open floor plan. The living room and dining (pictured) flow pretty well though! I'm just too damn big for that house which was built for short people.

Can't you see that sparkly thing on the right. Guessing it's a fancy mirror frame?

I like this guy right here, he gets it.

Rye'd or Die (Rye malt liquor)

Dude, I'm stealing those. I do still have a bunch of rye leftover from the rye saison I was gong to put in the barrel before I decided to do another stout. Got a good 6 lbs laying around for that Free Rye'd.

Why would I care if your office was open floor plan? I'm just going off information you've given us. Nobody cares about a stinkin' office.

edit: your mom is 92 years old.. damnit, I missed that one.
