    Altitude "un" adjustment

    Ok I have a recipe that was brewed at altitude without any adjustment for altitude. Since then I adjust my hops addition for altitude. I've made an equipment profile for that includes altitude adjustment. For this one recipe I need to make it without altitude adjustment (it was really good...

    Hops addition

    Hey, apologies if this has already been discussed/covered. I'm fairly new to home brewing and working my way up from home brew kits. Have decided to take on the Grimenberg Double recipe a go for my first brew but one of the steps asks for hops to be added at -90 mins which has confused me...

    Home Brewing 36 Years and Still Counting

    Greetings to all brewers worldwide. I started home brewing thirty six years ago on a whim with my first batch of extract. I liked brewing so much but did not care for the extract kits of those early years and very quickly made the investment to go all-grain. Since then never had a bad batch and...

    Hop information

    I would love to have a good hop guide integrated on brewersfriend: a dedicated page/tool on the site where I can search for hops and find their infos (aroma notes, characteristics, hop analysis, general information, maybe their spectrum on an aroma wheel) integration into the recipe view, if I...

    Good hops for Stout

    What hops are good for Stouts. I have heard that not a lot of hops is recommended? But others are saying a few are good. What do you say?

    list of current hops with acids analysis

    I'm sort of newly back to home brewing. It's been a few years, but I spent many, many (25?) years making partial mash beers. Now after a hiatus I'm back and ready to go all grain. I can't believe all the new hops! In the old days, FH Steinbart always made up a list of the current hop crop and...

    Adding hops before fermentation

    Hello, I've tried to brew an IPA recipe and kinda messed up with some of the hops, instead of doing "flame out" and adding them during cooldown, I only added the hops when the temperature was ready for yeast, just few minutes before pouring the yeast into the container. I think the crucial piece...

    Question on an experimental recipe

    I've decided to concentrate more this year on lagers. I usually only brew a couple of them a year, but I want to expand the recipe file a little bit. I've got an IPL working right now, but a friend of mine asked about making an IPP - which translates to an India Pale Pilsner. So the grain bill...

    Critique this Recipe...

    Dry Hopping in Fermentor

    I have been brewing quite a while, but I have decided to start experimenting with dry hopping. For my current batch, I am making 2.5 gallons of a basic IPA. After the beer had dropped to a SG of about 1.020, I added 1/2 ounce of pellet hops to the fermenter, contained in a stainless mesh hop...

    High Temperature Dry Hopping Question

    Hey everyone, I’m using a Kveik strain of yeast which is currently fermenting at around 90 degrees and wondering if that would be too warm to dry hop. Will I get off aromas? Thanks!
