    Heady Topper- Can you clone it?

    Brewed this last weekend. Upped the grain bill a bit because I typically get 65% mash efficiency. I also used a new burner and brew pot and didn't realize how much boil off I would have. Ended up with a little less than 5 gal and a 1.09 OG. Also forgot that I had used all of my simcoe on another...

    Best of Vermont's Breweries?

    Pretty rare, actually. I haven't seen it in months. I think he released some in warren, last week. Hopefully it makes it up to Burlington this week

    Lawsons Double Sunshine is top notch. Most of his other stuff is just good. Fiddlehead doesn't bottle, only growlers at the brewery. They have been serving a tasty dipa. Only available at the farmhouse, now, I think.

    Heady Topper- Can you clone it?

    Drink that Heady fresh! HT is a different beer a week or two after canning.

    Heady Topper- Can you clone it?

    Interesting. I guess I'll just pitch the whole thing.

    Heady Topper- Can you clone it?

    Hey guys. Hopefully this isn't too off topic. I made a pale ale from some Conan that I harvested, and I am currently rinsing the yeast to pitch in a headyish clone attempt. However, I'm kind of stumped. The lightest layer (which looks like the yeast) is at the bottom and there is a darker...

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    My third batch: a dipa from northern brewer. My first full boil and first time using my new burner. Hopefully it's not -20F out like it has been the last week or so.

    Best of Vermont's Breweries?

    My favorites: Lawson's: Double Sunshine, Hopzilla, Triple Play, jade, Chinooker'd. Unfortunately, you'll only have 3 or 4 choices available (fingers crossed for double sunshine). Hill Farmstead: I'm not a big fan of Saisons, but if you are, pick up a bunch of his bottles (Arthur, Anna...

    Heady Topper

    I second Little River, especially since the bars in Waterbury have great tap lists and some decent food (especially at the Prohibition Pig). If you are looking for something a little closer to Hill Farmstead, check out Lake Elmore. It's way more "out there", but it's a beautiful spot.

    Preboil top off water (UV water system)

    It's sterilized upon entering the home, but it does travel through copper pipes before it gets to the faucet. Thanks for the advice!

    Preboil top off water (UV water system)

    Hey all! First time brewer, first time poster. I get the water for my home from a spring. The water is filtered and run through a UV system which removes 99.9% of bacteria. Do you think I need to boil my top off water or the water I use to rinse sanitized equipment? Could I get away with...
