jasejase Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Coconut is a hard flavor to bring through. In my taste experiences, it's so vague it's almost unnoticeable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaNu1142 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I'm going to dump a 1/2 mesh bag of it in the keg during conditioning. I found the recipe on homebrewtalk.com & the guy said any more than a couple days in the keg brought in too much coconut flavor.

DeltaNu1142 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Yeah, we'll see. I've done everything to screw up this batch short of pissing in it... and not even sure I haven't done that. I had a few too many one night earlier this week. Tits mcgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been going to The Thirsty Brewer, which is a good bit further from my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. They got fucked up real bad. Spent all day yesterday down there gutting the store of everything and inventorying and just busting asses down there. 30+ people showed up, it was pretty amazing.

jasejase Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Yeah, flood insurance isn't always the most comprehensive coverage. However, it's been than nothing! I'm glad they had it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators BarManBean Posted May 5, 2014 Moderators Share Posted May 5, 2014 That flooding situation blows, sorry to hear On another note, we kegged our saison last night and transferred our pliny clone to a secondary. Dry hopped it also and it should be ready to keg in about 2 weeks. I am excite!

lgtftw Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Has anyone had gumball head before? I'm trying to find a good recipe to do this weekend. Also might be trying a SMaSH as well. Anyone got experience with any of these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega Users seabass07 Posted May 5, 2014 Mega Users Share Posted May 5, 2014 Haven't had gumball head, but I've done a couple of smashes. Marris otter or vienna malt for a base malt works great. Still a good idea to add in a bit of flaked barley though. I usually do half a pound to a pound depending on gravity. Vienna and cascade makes a great pale ale. Marris Otter and east kent golding smash makes a great british pale, ipa or barleywine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lgtftw Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Worst brew night ever Saturday night. I dropped my hydrometer and test tube, both broke. Experienced a clogged drain (I will take my time and open it slowly from now on instead of full force). I ran out of propane, that was like 2 minutes of no boil and missed a hope schedule by about 5 minutes…. Hopefully it comes out alright, the activity is rapid, I think since the tube was clogged, there’s more for the yeast to feed on. And that is my sob whining story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
