I am familiar with the store you mentioned and it is indeed a sad day. They were a great homebrew shop in an area that has lost quite a few in the last few years. Be sure to check with the other shops in your area, most of the time, full bag prices for the same malts are better than what you can...
Hi. I am a longtime member of HomebrewTalk and the owner of a Micro Homebrew, a local homebrew supply shop north of Seattle. I am running for a spot on the American Homebrewers Association Governing Committee.
Homebrewing and the brewing community has become a big part of my life over the last...
No oak in that one. I suspect it is from the cranberries. I used the Belgian Lambic blend from Wyeast so the brett might be throwing some of those flavors as well. I am glad you like it. I brewed it a long time ago but I was worried it might not have enough time.
Cheers!
According to FedEx all the West groups Cranberry Lambicky should be delivered by today. I have received the Old Ale and the Gingerbread Ale already. Nice job on the packaging @anotherbeerplease and @chrisgood1. When they all arrive we are going to have a tasting with some homebrew friends of...
Most of you in the West group should get the Cranberry Lambicky today. A couple of you that aren't actually in the West will see them next week. I brewed that beer about 9 months ago and used the Wyeast Belgian Lambic Blend. It's ready to drink now but I wouldn't be surprised if it improves some...
Hard to say exactly what you did wrong but it has to do with the measuring. It's not possible that your post boil gravity is lower than you pre-boil. It can't go down when you boil of some water. I would recheck the gravity of the wort in the fermenter and use that as your OG.
Okay, we got word that one of the West group brewers is out. So we will have 11 participants. Everyone has sent me their information and I will send the list out in an email shortly. If you don't get it right away or have trouble with it just let me know.
Can't wait to taste everyone's beer...
I am fine with this too. That makes 4 of us. @jerbrew send me your mailing info, phone number and email address. I will add you to the list. Unless others decide differently I will include you in the mailing.
That just leaves @stansold. When I get his info, I will send out the mailing list to...
I have almost completed the shipping information list for the West group. I still need name, address, phone number and email address from @jerbrew and @stansoid. I have sent each a message too with no response so if you happen to have contact info for them please let them know.
Cheers!
Apparently they could not update the first page because it was too old. All the spots were filled in the West group.
I am collecting the shipping information to send out to everyone. Please check your messages and send me your information.
Can't wait to try your beer!
