    Future of the blog

    I am all in on getting the membership involved, perhaps even rotating posts! I have no desire to be the sole voice/writer - just have the time and desire (several ideas) to get things jumpstarted.

    Question about chillers

    Another vote for the plate chiller! I have a Blichmann and it was the first item I knew I was going to buy when I had to setup my own system. I either put mine in the oven as stated above or every so often I do a boil it. I do mainly use whole leaf hops and have had no real issues. Just give it...

    Messed up a good brew

    Solid recipe and I like Amarillo, but have never actually used or remember using the other 2 types of hops you mentioned. My go to hops (being from Oregon) are Cascade, Willamette and Mt. Hood. :D Be sure to let us know how they turn out!

    Messed up a good brew

    I agree, I would dry hop and age them out. Treat it like a barley wine. They likely won't be ready soon. I would also take1 of the 3 and cold condition it, if you have the space and see if the cooler temp helps that batch. Then you can make a call on the others. I hate to throw beer away!

    Greeting from Pittsburgh! I have been a member of Brewer's Friend for a few months, but am just now finally converting completely from BeerSmith. Since I relocated from Portland, Oregon in July I have been building, tweaking, tweaking again and again to get into my brewing solo groove. In...
