Got a DNE error, is this the correct link? Or perhaps you must be logged in somehow?

Re: All grain troubleshoot

These are all great comments, I really appreciate them. Several points: yes, I did mean 20 QTS. I read around and did eventually boil up 1 lb of DME into a qt of water, cooled it, and tossed it in for some extra sugars for the yeast. It added a few points to the OG but it would be nice to just do it...

All grain troubleshoot

Hopheads, I completed my second all-grain batch this weekend but I ended up with a severely low OG and would like some help troubleshooting what I potentially did wrong. I was attempting a NB all-grain kit with 13.25 lbs of milled grain. With a W/G ratio of 1.5, I added my ~20 gal of hot water to at...

I more 'rinsed it out and left it with my copper wort chiller and about a foot of standing water in it' overnight. Now when I pull the chiller out and go...

January Meeting

Hello,

I missed yesterday's meeting and I'm concerned that was the only meeting of the year to officially 'join' the club by paying my dues. I was told back in Nov that it's only done once a year? I hope I didn't miss it!

Re: Iodine Test – Avoiding a False Positive

Query: Can this test be done with iodiDE? Is there a major chemical difference? And do I have to dilute the iodine to enable better results?
