I love the php flights. I am always inspired to do more flights by your posts. I haven't seen Washington play but man I'm telling you CU is resilient. That's cool we all know he can play. I like to watch the old Shell Wonderful World of Golf matches. Man that Arnold Palmer complete a.s off.
 
I heard it could take 8 hours


It took me about 6.5 including cleanup and my brew day felt like a mess... I missed all my mash temps with the decoctions and had to direct fire my wort (thank jeebus I BIAB), and I have no idea what my conversion was doing because I was sitting at 130 for 45 minutes, then 150 for about an hour and a half, then 165 while my bag drained, all of those temps drifting downward... Definitely would give decoction mashing a "2/10 would not recommend to a friend"

At the end of the day I had to add 1 gallon of top up water (i lost a bunch while boiling the decoctions) but my OG was spot on and it smelled great... So we'll see how the beer turns out.

I'm going to try it again when a make a dopplebock here in a month or so though, just to make sure I really don't like it.
 
Sounds awesome to me. I don't think I've ever heard a brewer say that they really look forward to doing it, but I've also never heard one say they weren't glad they did.
 
Is it just me or are the amounts of contradictory misinformation, and the number of dubious "I changed 5 variables and PROVED my point!" experiments growing exponentially on this site?

I'll read this more after I take my steak out of the cupboard & then flash-sear it.
 
It seems this Arctic storm that just came through here is going to head your guys way out east and hammer you.
 
Just have a splash of the upslope left. I am hoping the negative weather last night didn't freeze it. I think I've only had a keg freeze once. We had a snap of cold weather last year i think, it was in the negatives for a couple weeks. It gets in the negatives here but it also is 50 the next day.
 
When I drove to work today it was 5. 5 damn degrees Fahrenheit. I get the lucky experience of traveling to Colorado for work through the week this winter. I'm from San Diego...anything below 60 is Armageddon. I'm doomed
 
Where the hell are you ^^^^. Btw 5 Fahrenheit is -15 C so we're not too far off. But that -30C is crazy. What a swing. The coldest I've seen here is -19C
