I think as far as yeast goes he only carries the basic dry stuff like us05.

Yeah he has pretty much anything you need. But you could always call ahead and check with him and he can get stuff in like other yeasts you'd want.

I went to a brew club at the railroaders museum in altoona once about a year ago. They meet once a month but can't remember what day.

Also the color was very closer. The real AB just was clearer, it's on the left

So I finally got to doing a side by side with the real AB and my two batches today. The real AB has more of a lingering bitterness and more aroma than mine. I was surprised mine didn't have more with how I hopped and I didn't use a hop spider because I really wanted to get all I could outta my...

My sample I tested of the original was 1.018. I'm drinking my batch and it is one of the best beers I've ever brewed. I need to go out and get a bottle to so a side by side as well. I'll post my thoughts on it when I do.

Yeah I'd like to hear how you feel about the hop schedule and your amounts, and if you'd do something different next time. Something like this will be my next batch

In mine I brewed yesterday I used 5% sb and 5% crystal 135-165. And 11.4 aa chinook 4 oz at 90 and an ounce each at 20, 15, 10, 5 and 0 for about 105 ibu. I used half 007 and half 002. I will let you all know in about a month how it turns out.

Boiled and cooled water.

Awesome cant wait to hear your results to the side by side. I am brewing my attempt at this right now. Overshot my starting gravity though. I was shooting for 70% efficiency since this is sorta high gravity and an 11 gallon batch but my preboil came in around 1.070 with 14 gallons. I was...

I don't worry about measurements either. I use 8 oz mason jars, and the day before brewing I fill them about halfway with water and put them in the microwave for a couple minutes til they boil. Carefully (with oven mits) put the caps on and tip upside down to sanitize. Then let them cool. When I...

i very much appreciate your input. thank you. im doing an 11 gallon batch of this and cant wait

Stonebrewer, what do you feel was your closest hopping schedule to the real thing in your attempts? I am going to brew this finally this weekend an haven't settled on my hop schedule. I was thinking of doing similar to what the guy in the last post had based off of cybi and shooting for around...

I used copper in my 10 gal igloo cooler and just made a square manifold with 4 rows of piping.

I think he only has a Facebook page, which I don't. But his hours are M,W,F 4-6 and Saturday 12-5.

This sounds like a great recipe. I have some simcoe and citra in the mail and will probable do something like this in the next month or so. I'd like to hear how this one turns out for you.

I've had that happen for two reasons. Either with the auto siphon leaking at the inner tubes seal against the outer tube. sucking it dry and pulling air from above the seal. Which I would just keep dumping water or sanitizer to keep it full. Or you may have 3/8 inch tubing on a 3/8 cane. You...

Well I saved my hydro sample of the commercial AB and now that I'm home from work it is at 1.018, matching what someone else posted earlier in this thread. It must have still had some co2 left in it this morning even though it had sat out for 10 or so hours overnight. So I might shoot for a...

Sorry for the confusion. That sample was from a bottle of Stone's arrogant bastard. I haven't decided on my recipe yet

Now I'm not sure how to approach this. I left this sample of AB sit out overnight and it looks like its around 1.013? Which is 5 points different from the sample FG posted earlier on in this thread.
