Re: Earle's Stone & Wood recipe

Apologies for the delay gents I know you have all been dying of suspense. This turned out to be a great drop, nice colour excellent flavour, good hoppy aroma. Very close to the real deal, maybe the closest of the clones Ive attempted so far. Despite my concerns it did have a decent kick to it aswell ...

Re: Earle's Stone & Wood recipe

Put this brew on last Saturday, its been in the fermentor for over a week now. Looks good, smells great, lots of nice passion fruit but just one thing bothering me. When I took my OG reading it was noticeably lower that the 1038 - 1048 most people on here are reporting. I had 1030, its now sitting ...

Re: Boonies LCPA

One more noobie question around the cold conditioning process, is it suitable to do this even if your not bulk priming? What I mean is, if I cold condition wont I be taking out some/most of the residual yeast thats necessary for priming at bottling stage, or is there enough yeast left over to ensure ...

Re: Boonies LCPA

I didnt rack it, I just dry hopped at 72 hours when I removed my krausen collar. Dont have a second fermentor yet as opinions on its usefulness vs risk seem to vary

Re: Boonies LCPA

I added 15g of Chinook at 72 hours of a 22l batch. Its only been in the fermentor for a week so Im guessing there is no need to panic yet. Im surprised by the lack of hoppy aroma though. I think I might add a bit more to be on the safe side, I love a strong hoppy smelling ale so if it goes over a ...

I followed the instructions to the letter with the brew, and dry hopped after 72 hours however today when I took ...

Re: Boonies LCPA

Hi guys I'm attempting this classic recipe for the first time this weekend and just wanted to ask 2 questions that I hadnt seen covered in any of the other threads

1. There is no mention of any carbing process here, does the recipe contain enough sugars so that is not needed or is there a standard ...
