    Monster Mill Crush Help

    Ok fellas - I'm still having trouble dialing in my Monster Mill 2-2.0. What do you guys think of this crush? The grain bill is Denny's Rye IPA (11 # two row, 3# rye, #.5 wheat, #.5 carapils, 1.25 # C-60). I conditioned the malt with 2% water from a spray bottle. The gap is set such that...

    Blichmann Boilermaker - 10 vs 20 Gallon ??

    I have a question regarding sizing for a new Boilermaker I plan to purchase this week. I am currently doing 5 gallon all grain packages. I would like to upgrade to 10 gallon batches in the near future but don't have any additional equipment to support 10 gallon batches right now. Are there...

    Gelatin Problem

    I've used the same gelatin process with sucess for several batches. My standard process is to let one packet of gelatin bloom for an hour in a cup of room temp water. From there, I would heat to 180 and then cool to about 80. Three days later the keg was as clear as could be. Since I had to...

    Beersmith 2.1 - How to Add Grain To Account for Lower Efficiency?

    I'm averaging around 65% brewhouse efficiency. I want to brew the Lake Walk Pale Ale soon, but want to increase my grain bill due to my low efficiency. To do this, do I enter the recipe exactly as described, then select "my equipment" (which is set up for my gear), and then adjust the original...

    First All Grain Complete - Need Help Understanding Efficiency

    I know this is a common question, but I couldn’t find a thread that helped me understand my situation any better. I brewed Edwort’s Haus Pale Ale as my first all grain attempt last weekend. The vitals are as follows: - 8 lb 2 row - 2 lb Vienna - 0.5 lb Crystal 10 - 5.5 Gallon batch...

    Fermentation - Is This A Problem?

    I brewed my seventh brew (AHS ESB mini-mash) on Monday morning. I chilled the wort to about 70 degrees and then added about 2.5 gallons of very cold water to get to 5.25 gallons. After adding the cold water, the wort was at about 58 degrees. I pitched a one liter starter that had been on a...

    Calculating OG with AHS Alcohol Boost?????

    Hey guys, I tried searching and couldn't find what I was looking for this time. I just finished brewing the extract version of the AHS Greenbelt Pale Ale. This is my second time to brew this beer, but I added the 1% alcohol boost this time. Without the alcohol boost, the OG should be...

    First Keg - Racked Too Much Trub

    I tried to search for this first, but can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I had a pale ale in the primary for four weeks. This was the first brew where I used whirlfloc. It was also my first time kegging. While racking to the keg, I totally under estimated the thickness of the trub...

    My Clearing Effort Didn't Seem To Help

    I brewed the AHS Greenbelt Pale Ale (mini mash) a little over a month ago. I really wanted to improve the clarity on this batch. I’m seeking feedback a little early as I have another batch that will be ready to keg this weekend. I was hoping for some pointers before kegging the next one...

    Infection or Paranoia?

    Hopefully this is a dumb question, but here is the back story: I brewed my second ever batch two Saturdays ago. It's the AHS Greenbelt Pale Ale (mini-mash). At the recommendation from most here, I decided to do four weeks in the primary in lieu of racking to secondary. I had to sneak a...
