Re: My First Post! - Post here to become Fully Registered

Greetings, mistercheah88. This site has been somewhat sleepy for a time, but all the valuable BIAB information is available when you dig in. Initially I suggest that you keep it simple with regard to equipment. You can make really good beer without spending and accumulating much. I recently made my ...

Welcome Andy (NantFawrBrews) & DRin (drs) Darin - no chill works well as long as you plan ahead. Know the capacity of your cube, should you use one, and that it can handle the temperatures you will subject it to. An alternative might be to use one of the many Kveik yeasts. They are often pitched at ...

Re: Does this recipe have integrity? Can I copy it?

Thanks, PP, for support. I see more clearly that integrity of a recipe is an all-or-nothing deal. As for the IBU mystery, I haven’t a clue. Even realistic Tinseth IBUs derived from AA% and weights lose any distinction in flavor to me once above 120 - it registers as Bitter and little else. That woul...

Re: Does this recipe have integrity? Can I copy it?

That might just be the greatest difference in your brewing process. Clean-up will take less time and effort than ...

Hello, Sparkle from Northern Ireland. It wasn't sunny during the week I visited Belfast. Was there a break in the clouds? Your experience is not uncommon - a few kits with some ups and downs while learning a process. You have already learned about waiting for a long time to taste the results of a br...

Re: Making sense of BYO recipes

It almost adds integrity to the recipes. Read both the direct answer to the question, ...our recipes call for 5 gallons (19L) into the fermenter and the subsequent example, ...ending the boil with 5.2 gallons (20L) of calm wort will yield 5 gallons (19L) in the fermenter... meaning that KFL=0.2L? It...

Re: My First Post! - Post here to become Fully Registered

Hello, Crunch1224 and welcome. Your enthusiasm comes through loud and clear. Take some time to read about things that can help you make good choices and avoid buying stuff that will go unused. A hoist can be a back-saver, while an Igloo cooler is extra cleaning effort to many of us. Be sure to inclu...
