I'm looking to try the Hopburst technique on a Citra and Nelson Sauvin Extra Pale Ale. I'm not a fan of heavy crystal malted pale ales, so I was hoping to avoid a ton of crystal, but used the MO & C10 to get some background & color. Wheat is for head retention. Anyone have any thoughts on...

Hey All, I brewed a Delerium Tremens clone and am looking to bottle it to 3.5 to 4.0 vol of CO2. I definitely don't want bottle bombs and don't have a corking setup to do Belgian Style bottles. I found these flip-top style on Amazon. Would these hold 3.5-4.0 vols of CO2...

Hey All, Doing an AG Belgian Blond... have time to mash tonight, then hold the wort over night (not mash overnight) and boil & brew in the morning. I've searched and have seen that several people do this without problems. Question is, should I put the wort into the fridge overnight or...

Hey All, Brewing a partial mash belgian blonde. I'll have 3.5 lbs of Belgian Pilsner malt as well as 3.3 lbs Pilsner LME in the grain bill, among some small amounts of Aromatic and Munich. My question is, I've always done 90 min mashes & 90 min boils with Pilsner malt due to DMS...

Hey All, Quick question. Just made a stupid mistake. Was steeping grains and was checking the temp. Thought to give them a stir (moving the grain bag around a bit) and being lazy used the floating thermometer instead of grabbing a stir paddle/spoon. Well it cracked (not the actual...

Hey all, I'm confused by the disconnects out there. Can someone provide me a link for a disconnect to use with the Blichmann Boilermaker? I'm looking to just gravity drain to my fermenter with either 3/8" or 1/2" ID tubing. Thanks, Tim

Hey All, Going to do a first partial mash. I've searched and seen results all over the board. What's the best way to mash Oats (with some 2 row, crystal, chocolate and munich malts)? Single step mash at ~153 for 60 minutes? or Two step mash at ~133 for 30 and ~153 for 60? The...

Hey all, Doing a Pale ale and was steeping grains (1 lb 2 row and 1 lb crystal 40) around 150-155 for around 40 minutes. The temp drifted to 140 so I decided to add some heat. Door bell rang... lo and behold when I return the pot is boiling. I quickly removed the grain bag. I'm already...

Hey all, Brewing a belgian wit (4th batch and starting to get the hang of it). It's the first time I'm trying to control temperatures with a swamp cooler. It works well actually. My question is... with a Belgian yeast everyone says warmer temperatures are okay. What is a good range of...
