    Dramatic loss of flavor and aroma, any thoughts?

    That was my plan, I figured as much, though I just wanted some feedback. Thanks guys, I'll report back with anything when it is carbonated.

    Dramatic loss of flavor and aroma, any thoughts?

    Hey, folks, as the thread describes, I brewed an APA recently and I am experiencing a confusing and depressing thing. Everything in the brew went smooth as any other brew, gravities were on point, temps were good, hops pitched at the right time using only cascade and citra. I fermented with 1056...

    Amarillo hops shortage???

    Interestin Scenario

    You're planning on a 5 gallon batch, yes? You might be able to formulate an interesting Black IPA with those grains. You'd need a base malt, Pale Ale or two row for an IPA would be best. You could probably get away with 10-15% victory and 4-8% chocolate, maybe a little more considering the...

    Messed Up Stout, Now a Porter?

    From what I've read, GAS, I agree with you. That being said, I've seen many stout recipes that negate the use of roast barley. In my stouts, personally, they always have it but your recipe, Seraph, looks like a killer oatmeal brown porter. A little heavy on the oats I would think but I'm sure...

    Hello from Houston!

    Hey guys/gals, I've been lurking here for a while now without an account, so I figured what the heck. I just brewed my eighth batch last night, needless to say I'd been picking up more and more information off the site each brew. Thanks and hello again!
