Re: Mash and Boil for 250.00

Re: Mash and Boil for 250.00
Brian, years ago when I built and raced drag cars, I learned if you change too many things at a time you don't know what helped or hurt.

Re: Mash and Boil for 250.00
I just ordered one from him. I'm debating using it this weekend or waiting until my next brew to isolate what changes make the most difference.

Re: Chocolate Milk Stout
First taste test and it still only half carbed. It's a bit thin which is a shame because it tastes good, but doesn't feel good. I'm hoping the carb helps a bit. I wish there was a way to 'thicken' it a bit but it is what it is, an easy drinking beer and the wife likes it and I'll count that a plus....

Re: Mash and Boil for 250.00
Welcome to the borg. You’ve done some really great mods to the M and B.I’ve done three brews. All were 3 gallon biab. That’s all I plan on doing because I like the simplicity of it.
