Just got back from Russian River with lots of Pliny, bottled on 12/21. Would like to trade for Heady, Sip of Sunshine or other worthy IPA's not available on the west coast. I'm honest and willing to prove it.

Yes, I've heard that. Especially in concert halls and shopping malls.

I pitched the proper amount, using a starter close to 2 liters.

I didn't look at the best by date to be honest. I trust my supplier not to sell old yeast. I use starters rather than pitching multiple vials.

I used to make starters a few days before brew day and cold crash/decant but I read somewhere that having a starter go longer than 24 hours is "beating up your yeast." Also learned that high krausen is the ideal time to pitch the starter. That all made sense to me so now that's what I do.

I'm having an unusual fermentation using WLP001. I've been brewing for for two years and this is batch #30 for me. I've used WLP001 probably 20+ times. I'm brewing an IPA, OG 1.071. I ordered the yeast through More Beer and it shipped via FedEx. I forgot to order an ice pack but the high...

My usual batch yields 24 22oz and 6 12oz. I use the 12's for taste testers and after the first week, I try a 12oz. Most of the time, it's pretty good and an indicator of things to come. All of the time, they get better after each week. I don't get into the 22oz bottles until at least three...

Curious to know if you tried the open fermentation.

Greg, I started brewing about a year and a half ago and I've done close to 30 batches now. So I'm still very new at this but I know a lot more now than I did during my first few attempts. Anyway, I almost always come up with something I think I did "wrong" and in the end it always ends up...

I wish I had a stash. PTE in my area means hitting up the beer guy at Whole Foods which makes me feel like a junkie needing a fix. Earlier in the year I went to Russian River and picked up a case. HT I found on Craiglist and had to overpay for those. Alpine Duet is now more available and can...

I've brewed about 30 batches, mosyly Imperial IPA's and mostly recipes somebody else has created. I've done three "all me" recipes that have tuned out fine. I realize now the commercial Double IPA's I really like are not bitter, but hoppy. My favorites are: Heady Topper, Pliny the Elder and...

Yes and no. I cold crash every time for 3-4 days and almost all my beers are carbed within 2 weeks.

I brewed a big IIPA (10%) in mid-January and it didn't carb until a week ago. Every other beer I've done carbed in two weeks or so and after trying one every other week, I gave up on it. Last week I found it in the garage and I cooled one and opened it up. It tasted like a beer that was...

Yep, OC Fair. Okay then. 623. The whole thing is making me wonder if I should even do it. As a brewer, I simply want to make a great tasting beer not necessarily something that conforms to a particular style. I was hoping for some constructive criticism, being a new brewer, like "you...

I'm actually thinking I'm going to enter it the pale ale category. The spiced category clearly states the spices should be prominent in the aroma and hops should be in the back seat. My beer is not that. It's Casacde heavy and the coriander and orange peel is subtle at best.
