Thanks for the reply! That's a lot of info! lol. I'll break it down: -That was indeed my first decoction mash. But I've done already 7 batches without any conversion problems. -What do you mean by "he has excess, decocted mash left"? I used the Vdec = Vmash(Ttarget-Tstart)/(Tboil-Tstart)...

I watched that video too. That's why it's so awkward to me why it didn`t work.

Yes. Forgot to say that. I only took the thick part of the mash in both decoctions. Can't say for sure the ratio, but it was preaty close to what you can see at 1:30 of this video:

Correction: I did steps 1 to 11 perfectly. And the mash didn't convert in step 11.

I've tryed my first triple decoction mash this saturday. I used 9 lbs/4,1kg of pilsner malt and 0,74lbs/0,34kg of cara-pils I used 16,4 qts/15,54l of water hitting a ratio of 1,68 qts/lbs and 3,5 l/kg My steps were: 1- Dough in at 95F/35C and rest for 20mins 2- Take first decoction...

I've seen some guys asking but I couldn't find the answer. Is the flaked corn in the recipe the same as Kellog's Corn Flakes or is that another kind of flaked corn?

Did it right now! Let's see what happens! Thanks for the help and I'll let you know how it worked

The gravity has estabilished and I used a 8 gal bucket, so I didnt need a blow off tube, but it was intense. My question is beacause I used dry yeast and only pitched one pct. I had a stuck fermentation once with a Saison. I stired it up and it dropped 0.005. I was wondering if something like...

I overboiled the wort and ended up with a OG of 1.085. It's been 10 days in the primary and it down to 1.024. The ABV is close to the one at the recipe, but since I had a biger OG, should it have fermented more? Should I shake it a little to see it it ferments a little more or is that ready to...

I'll use just one and add another if needed. Gonna brew this sunday, let's see what happens! I'll post the results

I'll try the Safbrew T-58. Let's see what happens...

I'm gonna try this recipe! I just have two doubts: -Why is that a 90min boil if you just boil the hops for 60mins? -When should I add the candi sugar? 15mins before end the boil? Hope this works well and I have the same result as you guys. Cheers!

I'm going to use the Carabohemian to replace the c80 as well. But I couldn't get the Caramunich III, so Im gonna use the Chatêu Crystal(cara 150). Let's see how it works. Thank you all for the help!

I've done this a lot already I got that the Carared would be ok for the 20L and that the Châteu Crystal could be for the 80L. But dind't get any responde about the diference in flavours and characteristics. I am hoping that anyone could help me with these informations and experiences

I've been seen a lot of recipes with the Caramel/Crystal 20L,40L,60L,80L malts but I can't get it here in Brazil. All I can get are malts from Castle Malting (http://www.castlemalting.com/CastleMaltingMalts.asp) and Weyermann (http://www.weyermann.de/). Do you guys know what would be great...

what would be a bry yeast substitute for the WLP 530? Can't get any liquid yeast where I live and I'd love to try this recipe!

I meant just add the one I bought. Thanks!

Thank you all!!!

Hey, guys I have some doubts about an aluminium kettle I user to heat sparge watter. I've used it for a couple of times without having any problem. I just brew with bottled watter. Last week, I boiled some tap water and the kettle developped a black layer where the water was. It hasn't...

Hey guys. I want to make a Saison with crystallized ginger but I have some doubts. How long should I boil it for? Should I transfer it to the fermenter? Thanks
