Has anybody made the all grain version of this beer? If so, could you share the recipe? I would like to try it, but don't really want 5 gallons of it. I'd like to scale it down to 2-3 gallons.

I am in the transition phase of going from extract brews to all grain, and probably the BIAB method. Right now I only do 5 gallon batches, but I hope to do 10 in the future on occasion. If I got a 20 gallon kettle now when only doing 5 gallon batches, are there any negatives to having such a...

I am trying to decide if I want to move to all grain using the more traditional method and a 50 quart cooler or all grain as BIAB. I have read that a finer crush is desired for BIAB because of increased efficiency and the smaller crush is still filtered by the bag. I emailed Austin Homebrew to...

I made the extract Falconer's Flight IPA from AHS last year. I just got BeerSmith 2 and did a conversion of that recipe to an AG recipe to see how the grain bill was estimated. The extract recipe I entered I to BeerSmith was pretty accurate as far as the ABV, which was right on or maybe off by...

I bought a Vanilla Porter extract kit and I wanted to make some adjustments to it. First I wanted to add toasted pecans during secondary fermentation (this is the primary modification I want to make). Then I was thinking of adding some bourbon to half the batch. The last thing I was thinking...

I made the AHS Anniversary Blonde extract brew today and it was the first time I used Whirfloc tablets. Is that what it is supposed to look like, or did something go wrong? It just looks like a lot to settle in just the sample I used to take the gravity reading. If this is normal, how much...

I'm planning on brewing the extract AHS Anniversary IPA (AHS Anniversary IPA), but I was thinking about adding/changing the dry hops and maybe the 5 minute flavor/aroma hops. I emailed AHS and they wouldn't tell me amounts of hops, but the Summit hops are added at 60 minutes and the Zythos at...

I made the extract Falconer's Flight IPA from AHS and just before bottling it had a strong grapefruit flavor, stronger than I would have liked. Even though it was strong, the description said it was citrusy and that grapefruit was one of the flavors so I was happy I made it to taste like it was...

I'm brewing the Falconer's Flight extract from AHS. It has been a fairly slow ferment and today is day 15 (brewed 12/8 ). On day 11 my son accidentally knocked off the airlock in the primary fermenter (6.5 gal bucket), so not knowing how much CO2 escaped and how much oxygen got into the...

I plan on brewing Saturday and it will be my first time to dry hop. I bought leaf hops because I misunderstood an email response from AHS that wasn't clear and after receiving my package today, I see they include hops for dry hopping with the kit. However they are in pellet form and not leaf...

I am about to brew my second batch. It will be the Falconer's Flight IPA from Austin Homebrew. They do not include any hops for dry hopping in the kit so I bought some Cascade hops to dry hop. Since the Falconer hops are the only hops used for the boil, will using Cascade hops be okay for dry...
