    Confidence brewing

    I believe the dme needs to be boiled for at least a short time. So adding it now is not a good idea.

    The Home Made Pizza Thread

    Dali pizza! Yukon gold potatoes, red onion, black beans and Pf Changs Dali sauce (where I work) instead of pizza sauce. Sprinkled with toasted cumin seeds. Spicy and very tasty!

    Blonde Ale Centennial Blonde (Simple 4% All Grain, 5 & 10 Gall)

    My imperial version of this awesome recipe. 11 gallon batch. Added 5# of honey and an ounce of Columbus (just because I had it). 6.8% abv! It's still light and crisp. Which is exact what I wanted. Easy drinker but ya better be careful! She'll bite ya! I love playing with this recipe...

    Blonde Ale Centennial Blonde (Simple 4% All Grain, 5 & 10 Gall)

    Sorry, I forgot to say that I did an 11 gallon batch. Even so, without the honey the OG of this recipe is usually around 1.040 or slightly lower depending on your efficiency. This boosted mine to around 1.062. It fermented down to 1.010 so it worked out to 6.8%. I added an ounce of Columbus...

    Blonde Ale Centennial Blonde (Simple 4% All Grain, 5 & 10 Gall)

    I added 5# of honey to this. I did it simply raise the abv and to dry it out. I knew that I would not be getting any honey flavor out of it. It boosts the abv to 6.8 :rockin:

    My Ugly Junk- Corona Mill Station...

    Built mine this evening! Stole the idea right off this thread. Thank you for the ideas. No real improvements to add. Not yet at least. A friend is building a hopper for me to attach to the existing one. I can't wait to try it out!

    What I did for beer today

    Checked the gravity on the imperial centennial blonde I brewed a week ago. It's BM's recipe that I added honey and some Columbus to. Finished at 1.010 so it's about 6.8%.

    Blonde Ale Centennial Blonde (Simple 4% All Grain, 5 & 10 Gall)

    Made an 11 gallon batch of this last Tuesday. It is the 4 or 5th time I've made this beer. I changed it up this time. I added 5# of honey to it(mostly because I had it sitting around) and an ounce of Columbus just because I had that too. Pitched some rehydrated Notty on it and within three...

    2013's How many gal of homebrew in 2013

    28578.5 + 11= 28589.5 Just made an imperial version of BM's Centennial Blonde. Added about 5# of honey to it and upped the hops a little to compensate for the extra gravity points. I'd call it more of an APA now but we'll see how it tastes.

    Repeat brews?

    I rarely make the same beer exactly the same way twice. Just did a porter a second time but adjusted the grain bill to boost what I liked about the first one. I also make BM's Centennial Blonde 3-4 times a year but it always has some sort of modification. It is a great beer to play with...

    My Ugly Junk- Corona Mill Station...

    I got a victoria mill for christmas and I am just now starting to tinker with it. I have it all put together but the crank is VERY difficult to turn. It is set pretty loose so that can't be the problem. The plates are not touching. I'm thinking it could be a slightly off casting and something...

    Best Brew for 1st All-Grain Batch?

    Third vote for BM's Centennial Blonde. It's a fantastic beer, cheap to make and an all around good beer. I recommend this recipe to all my brewing friends who are just starting all grain. I do ten gallon batches several times a year with excellent results every time.
