Sorry to here the news. Hopefully you will be able to use the many gluten free recipes that are already out there.

I will toss out another +1 for How to Brew by Palmer and a +1 for the Brewers Friend Brewing for Beginners.

Close transferred the BF 2022 4th Quarter Downtown Charlie to an empty fermenter and bottled it up. Might actually get to enjoy it this quarter.

Got mine bottled tonight. OG was 1.057 and FG was 1.012. That gives it three weeks and I will actually get to try it this quarter. Lots of fun with this beer. Tastes great uncarbonated so I am excited to see how it comes out.

First tasting of my Oatmeal Stout since bottling

We make labels for most of our beers, no fancy names yet, just the basic type of beer. For quick reference I use different color caps also. My current list...

Getting ready to close transfer my Heady Topper Clone so I can bottle it.

Not a beer night for me, at the VFW drinking Peach Crown and sweet tea. Waiting on the wife, she is getting some color in her hair.

This is actually easier than you would expect. While editing the recipe just change the the measurement type. It if is in lb, just use the drop down and select kg, it will automatically update the the amount.

I scale all the time. While you are editing the recipe you will see Recipe Tools at the top. Click the drop down and select Scale. You can scale by batch size or efficiency.

My understanding is that mashing at a higher temperature range results in sugars that are more complex and harder for yeast to break down. So yes, this should result in a higher FG at the end of fermentation.

Have you checked your tilt in water? I drop mine in distilled water about every other batch to do a quick check. They are normally spot on in water. I did the calibration on one that was reading a little off. I agree with @Minbari , mine have never really been off by more than a few points.

Welcome to the group, lots of great people here, all willing to help out if you have questions.

Bottle supply was getting low, took advantage of Black Friday deals and ordered 20 cases of bottles and UPS driver brought them today. Driver is a craft beer guy and loves getting samples of brews that I make. Would put a picture up but they are just bottles, lots of bottles.

Very Nice

At the Big Timber tap room for the Brew Club meeting tonight. Brought my Oktoberfest for tasting. Always great to sample everyone's home brew at the meetings.

Do you send out invitations? Would be more than happy to bring kegs. Amazing setup

Lots of great input already. The only thing I will add is that mashing at a higher temperature results in a less fermentable wort. All this really means is you have less sugars to ferment. Aside from a bit of dry hopping, just ferment out and taste. Take notes, correct, and do it again. My...

Big Timber Logger Lager

A lot of the beers I brew in the fall are specifically for Christmas gifts, so I try and change it up every year. The OG on this one was a few points lower than expected. Taste amazing.
