Have you brewed it before?

Anyone brewed the recipe from Can You Brew It? If so how did it turn out. I'm thinking about brewing for my next batch.

Any suggestions on additions for my darker beers?

No it's free from the water purveyor

I got a water report from my water purveyor. I know very little about water chemistry. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how it looks for brewing? Ca+2 =19 Mg+2 =1 Alkalinity =17 (CaCO3) That all the info in the report. Thanks

I just ordered a pump. I will be setting it up next week. The mush tun has a false bottom that is about 2 inches above the bottom of the tun with a drain about 1 inch up from the bottom. I plan on notching the cover and running the hose in the top with a manifold sitting on top of the wort. I am...

I just got a 16 gallon ss mash tun that I plan on using as direct fire mash tun. I thinking about adding a pump to recirculate the mash. Is it worth it?

So I brewed and kegged this batch. It came out great! It got some similarities to the beer I was trying to clone but not as close as I was hoping for. But I like it more than the beer I was trying to clone.

I'm not expecting to make the exact beer. Like you said it fun trying to get it close. I hoping to make a good beer close to the one that I enjoy. I tend to brew the same beer a few times making changes till I get it the way I want it. The recipe could go in a total different direction the the...

I have and that's recipe is what I've come up with for a recipe. I haven't tried to clone a recipe before. I am going to brew it soon and do a side by side.

I did email the brewer. He said he is willing to send it. But haven't heard back after sending him a 2nd email. He is really busy expanding and I don't want to be a pain in his a**.

I agree with you on the special b. I might back off on the chocolate malt.

A local brewer make an Imperial brown ale that I really enjoy. I would like to try and make something close. The only thing I could find to describe the bear is this.rich warm malt notes to awaken the senses. Dried plum, toasted malts and dark caramel tones finish with a spicy herbal hop flavor...

Has anyone brewed this recipe from the book Modern Homebrew Recipes? If so how did it turn out. I was thinking about brewing 10 gallons and pitching a Belgian yeast in half.

That's what I was going for, a nice brown ale. I going to EKG @60 and some Willamette near the end of the boil. I'm still a little worried about the coffee malt. I was expecting the 70L brown malt.
