Sounds like a good idea, I'm not in on this round, but I'd gladly lend you guys a hand for the brew day.

I'd say 1 to 1.5 months from when we filled it, yet to be finalized. Get brewing at any rate, RIS keeps for years.

That will put our fill date at the begining of september sometime. The exact date will have to be worked out later.

I can bring mine over to Halifax in mid-August so that's in readily available.

In my mind, that puts you in for a third of whatever Graham and I take home.

Not going to argue with that.

I'm still learning this beersmith thingy... the recipes use percentages, but my beersmith is setup for lbs

Does anyone have a beersmith file for this recipe or know where I can get one?

Post by **mr x** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 10:38 am

You will see percentages in the main window. There is also a grain percent button just to the right of that window at the bottom.

I'd be interested in a group-brew!! I can gather ingredients together prior to make sure I have everything to keep consistent. Let me know

My plans have changed so I won't be able to do the group brew thing this time around.

Agreed.

How has the brewing been going, guys? We ran into trouble with the first barrel with many beers not finishing low enough, so they needed an extra few days with another pitch of yeast. I believe the transfer date is still going to be in the first week or two of September, so this week is the time to get to it.
Anyone missing any ingredients, looking for hints/tips, please post up so we can help!

I'm hoping to get this on this weekend but I am short on a couple items. Until the grain order comes in I only have about 8# of premium pale malt which I was planning to cut with some munich which I have a bunch of. Can I take out a loan on some MO or 2-row with someone? I'm also in need of roasted barley and horizon/magnum hops if anyone can spare? My plan is to check NG but I may as well check here first

A friend and I brewed our batch yesterday. OG was 1.097. It's bubbling away...FermCap was definitely needed on this one.

Brewing this weekend . Will have to buy MO from noble grape or substitute.

I wouldn't hesitate to sub 2row into this recipe. Throw in a few percent of Munich or Vienna if you're super paranoid.

Post by **RubberToe** » Mon Aug 13, 2012 10:36 am

Cool, I have all of those. Thanks.

bluenose · Post by **bluenose** » Mon Aug 13, 2012 10:37 am

I think I have enough ingredients, but NG didn't have magnum and recommended Zeus instead... Will this work?

I'm having a tough time with beersmith... It says it's way off the imperial stout profile, but there's no ris profile

Post by **mr x** » Mon Aug 13, 2012 10:41 am

Zeus is fine. Not sure what the bm issue is with that amount of info....

My profile shows everything is ok except for the color which is way above what they have. What is off in yours?

Mine said:

Style Colour: 30-40 SRM
Estimated Colour: 71.7 SRM

I'm just a bit off

I'll grab a screen shot when I get home

bluenose · Post by **bluenose** » Mon Aug 13, 2012 9:08 pm

here's what I got into beersmith

when I enter the percentages that people had in the recipe, the sliders at the bottom are way off, but this is what I get when I move the sliders to the appropriate spot... so I'm not sure what's right

my problem might be in the equipment section which I got from the webbernet for keggle biab

I've attached both in the hopes someone might see what's throwing my chit off
