This is the 5th or 6th time I've brewed this beer. It is one of my house beer's and a crowd favorite. I have had some trouble on the last few batches though. I can never get the beer to come out as crystal clear as everyone has pictured. It always ends up very cloudy, mainly after dry hopping. I have even left it cold crashing for a month after dry hopping and there still is haze to it. Do you all just throw the pellets directly in or do you keep them in a bag?
...Sorry all on the thread hijack. Just trouble shootin my cloudy Fire Rock clone here!
I'm going to give that a shot next. How long does it usually take to clear?
Posted a page back, and got lost.
Have a whole sack of 2.0L Pale Ale Malt to burn through.
Is there a simple conversion I can add to the recipe to use the Pale Ale Malt instead of the Marris Otter and still get approximately the same beer? Perhaps add 1/2 lb of Biscuit or something?
The difference would be negligeable if used as is...but two things you may do:
1) Toast 2 pounds of the base malt at 350 for 30 minutes.
2) Raise your mash temp by 3-4 degrees.
Thanks! I'll try the toasting this time to see what I get.
Would you recommend toasting milled or unmilled?

It may have been my palate a little off, due to the fact I came from a buddy's house drinking some IPA's and just had some spicy gumbo for dinner, but it didn't have the hoppiness flavor and aroma it usually has. It was all bitterness.
I brewed this beer 2 weeks ago and instead of boiling for 90 minutes, I boiled for 60 minutes. The beer is drastically lighter in color, but still tastes pretty good. It was my first all grain, so I was wondering if it was lighter in color because of the of the shorter boil? The O.G was 1.047 and according to the recipe it was supposed to be 1.054.
Any ideas?
I made this Saturday as well. I used S05. Has anyone else brewed this using S05 if so how did it come out?
