    Gabf 2013

    I won't complain, have been brewing for many years and although I live in the Denver area I have never been to GABF. Ordered my tickets for members only with my iphone while sitting at a car dealership in Las Cruces NM. and did not have any issues except for the short time that TM holds the...

    When to carb a lager?

    I just moved and filtered a Munich Dunkel that I made 3 weeks ago to a keg and am going to let it lager for awhile. Question is should I put the CO2 on it now or wait awhile? Barry

    Saison How Rye I Am (Rye Saison) - 2011 - 1st Place Best of Show - HBT Comp

    Has been 2 weeks since making my second batch of this recipe. I posted awhile back that it had gotten down to 1.010. I checked it last night and it has gotten down to 1.000. Starting gravity was at 1.076, this will make this one at 10.1% alcohol. It tastes awesome. Barry

    Saison How Rye I Am (Rye Saison) - 2011 - 1st Place Best of Show - HBT Comp

    Yes, I also hit 1.000 on my first batch, new batch is down to 1.010. Don't know if it will go lower, may pitch another pkg of yeast and see what happens. First batch was incredible, my best beer yet. Barry

    Beer naming

    I usually name mine something to do with the music I am listening to at the time. My last one was a Kolsch that came out at 1.045 so I named this one Kolsch 45. Barry:mug:

    brewing at altitude

    I am in Kiowa CO and brew at 6800 ft. I also have read that hop utilization is affected by altitude but I don't know for a fact. I don't brew hop bombs yet so no so worried about it. If this was the case it would be nice if beersmith let you set the altitude and would then convert ibu's for...

    Films You Watch when Drunk?

    Where the Buffalo Roam with Bill Murray, great drunk movie. My buddies and I wore a vhs out in the mid 80's while in the Army watching this movie on Friday and Saturday nights. Barry

    Fermentation is complete, after a 3 day diacetyl rest, final gravity stopped at 1.012. With OG at 1.058 and FG at 1.012 that is 6%A ABV. Now starts to slow drop to lagering temps. Just measured the final reading on the lager I made a few weeks ago, the starting specific gravity started at...

    Munich Dunkel Uncle Crunkel's Munich Dunkel (AG)

    I have a Kal clone electric brewery and get 90-95% efficiency on every brew. I have beersmith set to 90% so it reduces the grain bill by about 2lbs and still hit 1.058. Barry:ban:
