So I have been brewing on a brewzilla the past 5-6 years and have been getting 68% brewhouse efficiency. I recently bought a grainfather G40 and am getting 80+% efficiency, which is obviously a good thing. My problem now is converting my 5 gallon recipes like I enjoy in brewfather. In a 5 gal...

Omega yeast is hard to come by locally, but I am going to get my hands on some Lutra along with the propper seltzer nutrient to make a seltzer. Due to the cost of shipping and availability I was wondering if it is possible to wash and reuse Lutra yeast to continue to make seltzers off of a...

I live in Canada and I contacted everyone and no one carries or is going to carry Omegas new Bananza yeast. Companies in the US will not ship it to me either. I am hoping someone on this forum can ship me some in a cold packet and I will cover the cost of shipping and yeast. I realize it's not...

Anyone use this yeast? Experiences/opinions? I have used omega hothead yeast and really enjoyed it. This yeast sounds right up my ally as I don't have great fermentation control

So I have had a few beers now that I have really enjoyed, bit can't seem to build a recipe for. The beers claim themselves as cream ales but are a copper/brown color. The first is Granville Islands Maple Shack Cream Ale: "This malty, smooth maple cream ale has a hint of maple syrup, with a mild...

My question is which one do you prefer (given you tried both)? My LHBS has brewers best lime peel that is dried out and in a bag or zesting your own limes? Thinking of doing a coconut/lime beer

Got a recommendation from brulosophy to mix 50/50 sabro(tropical/coconut) and bru-1(pineapple) in an ipa and was reading into milkshake ipas and oat creams so I mixed it all together and what turned out was my favourite NEIPA I have brewed to date: Mash 60 mins @ 152F 7lbs 2 Row (50%) 4lbs...

I am interested in making a very crisp and dry malt base and looking to get all the wine flavors from these 3 hops: Nelson sauvin Enigma Hallertau blanc All my hops will be late/whirlpooled. Anyone have any experience with these hops and a ratio I should shoot for. I heard nelson is pretty...

I am looking to make a dark saison with this malt bill: 6lb vienna 6lb pilsner 8oz midnight wheat 4oz carafa special ii 4oz chocolate malt Belgian 3724 Was thinking of adding lb of dextrose or candi syrup, still on fence. Do I want a low (149F) mash temp to dry the beer out along with sugar...

Looking to do a pina cola ipa using 50/50 bru-1 (pineapple) and sabro (tropical fruit/coconut) with some lactose. What do you use for a grain bill? Thinking 2 row, white wheat, oats

So I am looking to recreate a local beer. They produce this beer once in awhile but not continuously which doesn't make sense to me because it's delicious and they only sell one beer. Their flagship beer is a belgian pale ale and the golden ale has some similar flavours, but it doesn't seem to...

So I am working on getting the perfect red for my irish red, but I think what's killing me is that the large range of colors with crystal malts such as caraaroma (130-170srm). I realized beersmith had the malt in at 178srm which throw off my color when designing the recipe. Does anyone know if...

I post here today because I got into kegging because I was sick of syphoning beer and love beer on tap. Now getting into kegging is tough because kegerators costs a lot and you have to be somewhat knowledgeable to make your own. Well I went out and bought from costco a single tap danby kegerator...

What do you guys think of using jarrylo (banana, pear, spice) all late hop additions with a banana/clove yeast? Obviously the idea is to have a simple wheat base with lots of banana/clove/spice flavors. Still deciding if I want to dry hop, but probably will not. OG: 1.055 IBU: 13.7 6lbs White...

I am looking to do a saison and would like to use some fruity hops to mix with the yeast rather than the typical saaz or golding. Not really looking for bitterness as much as flavor. Here is my grain bill for my partial/all grain. Trying to get a good mouthfeel with red wheat/oats. Actually had...

I'll start by saying I have never made cider (I make all grain beer) and mead a few times. My local brewery make a very good apple cider that takes like an apple pie shooter (half apple sourpuss/half butter ripple + cinnamon). Their cider is 6%abv and has this description: "A traditional style...
