Sorry for the five hundred replies. App is acting weird and I thought it wasn't letting me post.

You stir the bejeezus out of the kettle while you're chilling. The whirlpool action makes all of the trub settle into a cone in the bottom and you can siphon out crystal clear wort like in your image.

No problem. But to clarify:

Homebrewed Pumpkin Ale: http://youtu.be/-skr1iKjiKc

Hi guys. My video for this brew has been uploaded to youtube. The channel is quite empty but hope to have bbq and homebrew vids added over time. Thanks!

 

[Bono09]

Just watched your video. Thank you so much. Awesome setup you have and very informative on the video

 

[DrunkleJon]

I absolutely love the color of pumpkin beers. Hope that when I brew this one this week it turns out well and as purdy.

 

[StoutNoDoubt]

I am glad the video went well. I have a nice krausen goin on it right now.

 

[StoutNoDoubt]

Happy yeasties!

My picture won't upload, but I just took an OG of 1.084. I hope this bad boy doesn't dry out too much. Great tasting wort. Pitching two packets of 04 at 70 F. Blowoff tube forsure on this one.

Not the appropriate thread but since we're on the subject, how do you make a high ABV beer without "drying it out"?

 

[HumulusHead]

Mash it at a temp closer to 158 should help keep it from drying out. Also using some unfermentable sugars will help combat dryness.

Yep, higher mash temp and a 90 minute boil.

Here's a fermentation time lapse of my Pumpkin Ale. I screwed up my calculations for volumes doing BIAB and came up about a gallon short!! Still smells yummy out of the airlock! The two packs of Proofed US-05 took off nicely.

4JBrew: that was very cool!

 

[boicutt]

I love seeing the color change!

 

[StoutNoDoubt]

Looks like my brew video link was removed. Was that a violation of forum rules?

I've been looking forward to brewing this for a while now and I think I can get it done this weekend. My pumpkin ale didn't turn out so hot last year, hopefully this will remedy that
Quick question though, I'm going to bottle a blonde ale with Nottingham this weekend. The blonde used yeast cake from a DFH 60 minute IPA, so it's been used to ferment two batches.
First off, is Nottingham an acceptable substitute, and secondly does using a yeast cake for a third time sound like a good idea?
I've got US-05, so I guess I could harvest the nottingham and pitch us-05.
