On Bittering Hops Let me do the easy one first. Boiling longer than 75 minutes will only do harm. Got that readers? Make sure you do ;). If you have got that, then we can move on a bit... Let's have a look at a high Alpha Acid Australian hop called Galaxy. Here's what I think (but don't know for su...

I use a priming calculator like http://www.tastybrew.com/calculators/priming.html or one of the others from post #4 to determine what level of CO2 volumes by style.

rvoith. I have been thinking about your brewing basket. Have you found a solution yet? Lifting the basket with the smallest amount of displacement is ideal. Can you get longer stainless legs welded to the basket? Putting a bag in the basket and draping over the kettle sides would work, but then why ...

Will holding 1 gallon back effect efficiency or hop utilization? Would it be beneficial to heat the additional water to mashout temperature and rinse the grains into another vessel? Chris Interesting question. I have a 42 qt (39.75 L) kettle. My latest BIAB Mash Volume was almost to the brim for a ...

rvoith - I have seen stainless Brewing Baskets online. Some come with feet welded to the bottom to raise the basket off the kettle bottom and bring it close to the brim. Sounds like your idea will work. How did you lift the basket to drain into the kettle? Was the wort clear?

Cheers. Any thoughts about the other bits? Chris I'm not an expert but I will give it a go: Questions so far: 1) The kettle says it is a 30L capacity, but the measurements in the spreadsheet work it out to approx 33L. Is this normal? - Does your kettle have straight sides or does it taper towards t...

cfmcintosh - I have filled out a BIABacus for you based on a Wadworth 6X recipe. I am not sure if there would be copyright problems (unless you have already got the book) but it is from a well known English Author and is linked to CAMRA. ;) I think it is very similar to what you already have, and I...

Wadworth 6X Clone

Yes! ;) http://www.britishbrewer.com/tag/wadworth-6x-clone/ Also read "Brewing Beers Like Those You Buy" by Dave Line (1982, Great Brtain). He uses Flaked Maize and Invert Sugar as aduncts. The measurements are in British and Metric in his book. The BIABacus makes it easy since I don't have to conve...

I plan to make a clone of Wadworth 6X next. I don't have a recipe per se but a profile. I entered info in...
