I feed mine to my chickens

Thanks for the feedback. Despite high hopes to brew on Christmas day, I ended up losing the kitchen stove top to Christmas dinner related activities so I will be waiting until I can buy sea salt. Taking you twos advice, I will go ahead and halve the amount I was going to put in then add...

Tomorrow, I am hoping to brew a gose. I am just realizing that I do not have sea salt. My choices are iodized table salt or epsom salt. Does anyone have any advice on which would be better to use? This is my recipe

Really?! How disappointing. I'm going to have to buy a few bottles

Does anyone know where I can buy a bottle of Krieky Bones around the San Francisco Bay Area? Sounds great. http://www.firestonebeer.com/beers/products/krieky-bones

Assuming all the ingredients were correct, that was the only thing I could come up with too (and for the same reason). It is the most logical reason, which makes me think it's likely the correct conclusion. I brewed this one at a friend's house on his cement porch, and my primary was a glass...

Thanks for this, I will definitely give that a try and see what my results are. Like you said, figuring out what the target should be is going to be the hard part.

I am on my second time brewing a Scottish strong ale and each time my OG has been much lower than I expected. I am hoping someone can give me a little advice on what may be going wrong. Here is my recipe: https://www.brewtoad.com/recipes/scottish-ale-97ed79 First round was a 1 gallon...

I brewed this one two weeks ago and was surprised when my OG was lower than anticipated at 1.050 I brewed 1 gallon of this that I plan to age in a small oak barrel, and another 5 to blend it with. I think I'll brew the 5 gallon batch this weekend so I'll report back what this ones OG is...
