it finished at 1.018 and it was supposed to be around 1.010 .. tasted good going into the bottle .. I'm going to do it again and leave it out in some covers overnight instead of in my oven. All in all it was nice splitting that day. Cheers !

well I did it. I had tested my oven to make sure the temp didnt go up on about a half gallon of water in a pan. The oven has a 150 setting so I used that. The water actually leveled off at 142 after a few hours. However, my mash last night started at 153 and rose to 159 by this morning. It was...

It’s a cream ale so not really going for a big mouthfeel. I’m going to give it a shot. In the exbeeriment he let his go twice as long as I am going to and I’m not going to let my temp drop 80 plus degrees! Im sure i can hold my mash temp all night actually. I think my beer probably will have a...

Never done it before. Just thought someone might have some thoughts on doing it with a good amount of flaked corn. Of all the things I’ve read about it, no one has really elaborated on any potential pitfalls with certain recipes. Just thought I’d ask around here. Haven’t even been on this site...

That’s all you wrote when I responded ... I read it all. If the rest of it had been there I wouldn’t have ask you anymore questions. Did you edit it?

Any thoughts on flaked corn and mashing overnight?

How could it not be? You make beer for something other than drinking ? And if you are trying to be funny an LOL would have been in order. You actually wanted to talk about your thoughts on overnight mashing in general and not as it relates to flaked corn. So you weren’t trying to help. You...

BTW why the “if you’re making beer to drink” snottiness?

Not a good idea because of the corn or just not a good idea in general? I know many brewers mash overnight without issues. I was just wondering if it mattered that the recipe had flaked corn in it.

I was going to sneek in a brew this week by using the overnight mesh method. I will be using 20% faked corn in my recipe. Does that matter when using that method? Does the recipe matter all, or can any recipe be mashed overnight? I'm looking at mashing in my kettle and I have a very low setting...

if i were going to bottle from a fermenter with a spigot I'd just add the sugar to the bottles so i didn't have to stir my beer

cool thanks for the info ... I have a ton of head space so I don't think I'll need a blow off but man that airlock is going nuts ... its 4 gallons in a 7.9 gallon bucket fermenter ... cheers

I just started brewing again after taking a year and a half off .... I wanted to try and simplify my process a little so I thought I'd give pitching onto a yeast cake a shot .... I do 4 gallon bathes BIAB style everything is going fine except I pitched a 1.046 wheat beer onto a cake from a...

on a similar list about music the same people had Miley Cirus beating out the Beatles for the 10th spot ... lol
