Has someone actually brewed this recipe? What were the results? Also, I was thinking of brewing this recipe with the Vermont ale yeast from The Yeast Bay and letting the beer sit on 10lb of mangoes for 14 days along with the dry hopping hops. The sugars from the mangoes should restart...

Anyone? This post is two months old and no one has any advice??

By the way. This recipe is following Jamil's Flanders brown extract recipe which calls for about a week on a dry yeast, then 6 months in a secondary on a souring culture.

I'm about to brew two 5 gallon batches of oud bruin to which I'm gonna add 10 lbs of cherries to one, and 10 lbs of raspberries to the other 3 months into the secondary fermentaion in a standard 5 gallon fermentation bucket. I'm really concerned if the extra space in the 5 gallon bucket will be...

Hey guys. Just an update. I ended up brewing this beer as described, along with Festivals New England Pilsner and Belgian Pale Ale kits. Ended up with an OG of 1.080 instead of the 1.086 my brew calculator said I would. Probably because I spilled some of the malt extract all over my counter...

Another question totally unrelated to the previous one. The 15 gallons of beer I have fermenting is in 3 separate buckets. When it's done fermenting, I plan on using Harris Beer Brite to clear them. Does anyone have any experience using this stuff? One source is saying to add it to the...

Hey guy's. Quick question. I have about 15 gallons of beer that I will need to bottle in a couple of weeks. I bought some PET bottles that I used for my previous brew that I have washed, partially filled with no rinse saniclean sterilizer, and recapped for storage. I figured this would keep the...

Well. The IBU is not really the issues. I'm just concerned about sweetness.

Thanks for the replies guys. For this brew, I'm using a vial of what I believe is concentrated hop oil. This is added at the beginning of fermentation and is suppose to bring my brew to an IBU of 30. I also have 85g of assorted hops in tea bags. This will be added to a little boiling water, and...

I don't know where those asterisk came from. Lol! I just noticed them.

So here's the deal. I'm trying to brew a Delirium*Tremens*clone and I'm worried if it will come out too sweet with the ingredients I'm using. I've put the ingredients in Brewer's Friend and it's telling me my*OG*will be 1.086 and my*FG*will be 1.019 giving me a beer with nearly 9%*ABV. I'm...
