Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
That sucks Bob, nothing worst than waiting weeks/months to find out something went wrong. I unfortunately am done brewing for a while, my friend with the space and equipment moved to a new house...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
I haven't done it myself, but I did do some research on it when I was planning an oak brew a few months back and I believe it was something like 2-7 days, and add the cubes as well as the alcohol to...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?

Dry hopped my two hearted clone last weekend, I used a recipe I had used before but swapped in a couple pounds of honey malt, I don't know if it will make much of a...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
The black IPA was ready to try this weekend, I think it's up there with the best I've made, but it was a little too hoppy. The color was as black as it can get, held it up to a light in a clear...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
There's no end to the learning Roger, I'm a relative newbie as well but I've fallen into it pretty hard. Lagers are definitely tricky with the temp control, I haven't ventured down that path yet...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
Interesting, so no traditional priming sugar at all, just the maple syrup?
I just dry hopped the white IPA today, put in 50g of lemon grass and 1g of fresh sage. I'm not sure how the sage will...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
The recipe I used was similar to this. (http://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=315024) The main differences were that I didn't use any sugar in the brewing process (don't know what the purpose...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
Did some beering yesterday. Bottled my Jade IPA (did half in bottles and half in a keg to force carbonate, I'll see how that holds up in a side by side). I also brewed up some White IPA, pretty...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
Hmm.. I've never used priming tabs, I always just make some simple sugar using priming sugar and water then add the whole thing into the batch after fermentation right before bottling. I think the...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
those sound very interesting Bob, I still need to get a good understanding of carbonation. I've been trying out bottling vs. keg but not consistently, this next batch I'm doing half in bottles and...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
Started pouring my attempt at a two hearted clone, filled up a growler going out of town last weekend and it is a little hoppier than the original, I did use a little bit more hops than the recipe I...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?

I did a small (~2gal) batch of a Jade IPA clone when I first started on all-grain in case it got screwed up, came out as one of the best I've made. ...

I was trying to baby step my way into it, learn one thing really well before moving on to the next. I'm still using my friend's setup for the actual brewing, which he has been piecing together. I...
