    Mince Pie Christmas Ale

    Thanks for the replies! I've made a tincture and put in special B instead of amber. I'm going to condition it until Xmas time but i'll let you know how it goes on brew day/bottling day!

    Mince Pie Christmas Ale

    Hey, Been trying to create a "Mince Pie" flavoured brown ale. This is what I've got so far. Was thinking to dry hop with mixed peel, which is a mix of candied orange and lemon peel.

    Blond, Cali Common and a SMaSH

    Cheers thank you! I've never done a protein rest before. Palmer says between 50-55C (120-130 F) for 20-30 minutes. Does this sound plausible? Would I dough in first at this lower temp, and then raise it up to my mash temp (66 C, 150 F) using boiling water and then proceed as normal from then...

    California Common

    Hey there, This will be my third brew, and I'm planning on doing it twice to get down some sort of brew consistency. It is for a 1 US gallon all-grain brew. https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/976149/california-common How do you guys think it is? I already have the grain so I...
