What does the original post mean by clearing stage?
Secondary fermenter (see original post). I'll probably just end up adding the pumpkin pie spice during weeks 2 and 3 of the primary. Either that, or in the keg.
Cheers

^^^^^^^^^^^^
It's been a while since I extract brewed but I'm pretty sure that I added the pumpkin straight to the boil. Are you using canned pumpkin? If so, don't bother with a bag. And yes, you can expect close to a gallon of trub in this one. Oh and I don't add my spices until bottling. I make a spice tea and add rack on it in my bottling bucket.
I'm brewing up my first batch of this for 2017 this weekend even though it's going to be more like summer than fall here in Ohio this weekend?!
Just wanted to say thanks for a fantastic recipe.
I've brewed this at least a dozen times and can say after trying numerous commercial pumpkin beers your recipe is by far the best.
I'm thinking of brewing this recipe in a couple days and I'm confused on how much spice to use and when its best to add it. It seems like some add the spices to taste at the end before kegging....Is that true? This will be my first pumpkin ale ever...and I've been brewing about 25 years!
Also how much rice hulls should I use?
Thanks...Bob
During clearing stage, add a spice tea of 1 tsp "Pumpkin Pie Spice" or Pampered Chef "Cinnamon Plus." Steep spices in 1 cup hot water for 10-15 minutes, cool then add. Consider adding the spice tea a little at a time to achieve the desired flavor profile.
I am wondering the same, let us know!Is the extract recipe on Page 1 still accurate. I've read through some of this thread (THERE IS A LOT!) and it seems to be a lot of different people chiming in doing different things. Is this page 1 recipe still the main way to go?
Thank you
I'm going to brew this recipe this week. Just picked up the ingredients for a 7.5 gallon BIAB brew.
After bringing the ingredients home, I noticed that my LHBS put the flaked wheat in the same bag as the rest of the un-milled grain. Oh well, I guess it will have to go into the mill with the rest of the grain to get crushed.
'Tis the season for a pumpkin beer. I probably should have brewed this a month ago.
Hopefully it'll be ready by November. Or at least by Thanksgiving.
9 lb of 2-row
2.25 lb of Crystal 60
1 lb of Biscuit
.5 lb of flaked wheat
1 oz of East Kent Goldings
1 pkg of S-04
Yet to pick up: 4.8ish lb of canned pumpkin
