Thanks! It's in the fermenter now, so I really hope it'll be good 😊

So I am about to brew this, just got the cereal mash going for the cornmeal... and now I just realized I have a big bag of Vienna not 2-row. I actually have no 2-row. Would this still turn out ok using mainly Vienna and maybe a bit of pilsner??? Help lol!

Grain to glass, not a word of a lie, exactly 2 weeks. And it's excellent. Bottled. It is properly carbed at 3 days in the bottle. I told my husband we have to drink all of it this weekend in case I messed up somehow priming it... Don't want bottle bombs... He took a sip, hid a smile, and obeyed...

This stuff is possibly my best brew yet. Thanks for the recipe !!

1/3 all grain wort + 1/3 Apple cider + 1/3 Apple juice = @$)?!:%#* DELICIOUS. thanks for the recipe!

Pic of part of the damage. May seem like a small spill to some, but when I only get one case per batch, it becomes a higher percentage of waste...

So I bottles my 2.5 gal batch of ode to Arthur stout today. The one that I've been stealing extra hydro samples from cuz it's just so freaking delicious. Then I knocked over 8 full bottles on their way to my capping station. I think I've gone through all the stages of grief now and am at full...

Update: my toddler found my fermenter in the cold pantry... And well, anyone with kids knows how that can go. It developed some king of infection. I'm dissappointed, I was looking forward to learning from this one, even if it didn't quite work out too tasty.

I've learned to trust only the hydro readings. I'm surprised by mine... I posted earlier that I was worried because the cider I used has k-sorbate in it, and there was little sign of fermentation. I over pitched the yeast by a lot even. But hydro readings are telling me that it's fermenting...

Brewing up a 2.5 gal BIAB batch tomorrow morning. Looking forward to it!!

Ok, total newb question here... I've done a bunch of all grain beers, but never a cider before. I made this with 1 gal cider, 1gal Apple juice, 1 gal ag wort. The only thing is that I didnt realize I had to be careful with the cider, and after a slow start fermenting, I found out it has...

So how did it turn out? I wanted to do an all grain of this too...

Yeah, I read that website, as well as a few other sources. Ultimately, I went with my John Palmer book because it seemed easiest, but shorter times because I'm impatient and I'm a rebel :rockin:. I realize I'm not getting crystal malt out of it, but I don't care :drunk:

Planning to brew a small 2.5 gallon of this on Friday. Don't have any c10 on hand, so I'm soaking some 2-row for 30 minutes, roasting @ 350F for 30 minutes. Doing that right now so it can sit for a couple days before mashing. I know most people advocate letting it sit for at least a week, but I...

Yea, sorry. My post was a bit sloppy... I just copy pasted my original post and didn't adjust the percentages, just weights. It should be correct in beersmith :) :mug: Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Ok, here's what I did: - scaled back C20 - increased Vienna - copied hops schedule from Yooper's BLHA - lowered mash temp Batch Size (fermenter): 2.25 gal Estimated OG: 1.054 SG Estimated FG: 1.012 SG Estimated Color: 11.0 SRM Estimated IBU: 37.6 IBUs Boil Time: 75 Minutes Ingredients...

Awesome, thanks so much! I'll post back my recipe after I play with it a bit...:mug:

Oh boy, perhaps I'm in over my head... Thanks for helping me out, I appreciate it! I'm still a noob but I always want to try my own way, for better or worse. I'll have a look at your recipe again, Yooper, for some hopping inspiration - I am still restricted by what malts I have in the house at...

Thanks for your input... What I'm trying to do is have a balance between the malt and hop... I know it can be done so that the sweetness isn't overpowering... Yooper's broken leg house amber does this, and though I haven't made it myself, it sounds like a great beer. Sent from my iPhone using...
