Just tapped a keg of this exact recipe yesterday. No need to change anything if your efficiency is decent. Have made it multiple times. Nottingham is awesome for this.

I went down to Veil and got a 4 pack of the Oreo Hornswoggler. It's quite good and you definitely taste the Oreos in there.

I brewed this one today with the exact recipe posted. My OG is 1.055 so looks like I'm point with the recipe. I've not used the Nottingham yeast before. Looking forward to a good fall brown ale! This was done in my Grainfather.

My latest batch of this recipe used whole leaf hops and Omega Labs DIPA Ale yeast which is supposed to be a clone of the Heady Topper yeast, Conan. I really like this batch but so far am unsure if the leaf hops or the yeast is what I'm digging. It's really hard to mess this beer up! I've...

Have you tried this yet?

I brewed this one today in my Grainfather. I used white wheat and WLP001. I also moved all the late edition hops to a whirlpool/hop stand for 30 minutes. OG is 1.054.

I've been reading up on the subject as of late especially after tasting what this process does to a beer from Veil Brewing in Richmond,VA. I have always whirlpooled at flameout but haven't done much hop additions followed by hopstands at lower temps. My question is how do you take a recipe like...

1st try at this turned out really good. I'll definitely make it again, maybe with the wyeast instead of SafAle. Great recipe! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Mine went into the kegorator yesterday with CO2. Definitely gonna try some today even though it'll be somewhat flat. It's right at 4 weeks since brew day for me. The last sample I tasted was great even though warm and flat.

I just tapped a keg of this clone last week and brewed another batch yesterday. Yesterday's batch I used DIPA Ale Yeast from Omega Labs just for the heck of it. I also used all leaf hops in yesterday's batch. Will be interested to see how it compares to the pellet hops and SafAle yeast. DIPA is...

I'm saving 2 for when my clone is ready. It took me 3 years but finally got hold of some fresh bottles. Clone will be ready in 2 weeks.

Picked up the ingredients to make an all grain batch of this today. It's going to be the 2nd brew in my new grainfather. I didn't get the wood chunks mainly because I forgot but had been contemplating not using them. Will be my 1st brew using Simcoe and Amarillo. The house is going to smell so good!

I brewed this yesterday in my new grainfather. My numbers came out pretty well. It's been a while since I've done this recipe and used SafAle S-04 for the first time. Pitched at 4pm and woke up this morning to vigorous fermentation and mess around the airlock. I abandoned the airlock and used a...
