Kegged this today after 3.5 weeks in primary. The hydro sample was great. Thanks for the recipe.
Two quick questions:
1) What difference is there between using the flaked barley for head/body vs. using carapils/dextrine?
2) when I enter this into beersmith I get much higher IBUs than you enter here, I get 84.4 using Tinseth method, any idea where the discrepancy could be?
Thanks
Anyone dry hop this one? Sounds like it doesnt need it but was wondering if anyone had success...
Leave it sit for 3-4weeks then check gravity and package it. Should be done by then. Contrary to what many kit instructions tell you, one week is not long enough for the yeast to finish their work.
I brewed this awhile back, had it in the primary for 3 weeks and in the secondary for another 2 weeks. After fermentation I kegged it and it's been there for close to a week and a half at 11psi. When I sample it now there's a great malty flavor but absolutely no hop flavor what so ever. Did I wait too long to drink this? Any thoughts?

and the head, its too good to be true. .
Oh, and I think I'm done w/ Carapills now, only flaked barley from here on out
