    Congrats Ross!! Have you guys ever tried cold steeping your roasted grains overnight? It’s suppose to help reduce the harshness and astringency when brewing a stout/porter. Personally, haven’t tried it yet but I’d love too. Went to a brewery near me couple weeks back, had an Imperial Oatmeal Stout. It was super duper harsh and astringent. Almost to the point were it was unpleasant to drink

    • @BenSund
      @BenSund 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have done it several times with some success (grain choice is really important). I do 2 quarts of water per lb of grain. I usually heat to pasteurize, but then you can add it to taste at basically any point.

      @Vykk_Draygo 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well... it's like .79 ounces of sugar per gallon at 70 degrees Fahrenheit for 2.3 volumes of CO2. So, mathematically, you need, approximately, a VOLUME of sugar equal to a dying star to carbonate 3 liters. Mathematically.

    • @jacobhaegele4654
      @jacobhaegele4654 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Lots of variables at play - author's brew method, sparge/no sparge, etc. My initial recommendation would be to start tracking your brew house efficiency, if you're not already. Putting the recipe into a brew calculator (brewer's friend or beersmith, etc) and adjusting to your calculated efficiency really helped me start hitting target ABVs. There are also some ways to improve efficiency in the brew process.

      @ramtharthegreat 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@jacobhaegele4654 thanks a bunch, I will use that calculator. To sparge with a BIAB setup, do I just reduce the volume of water I begin the mash with by, say, a half gallon, then sparge with a half gallon of hot water while the basket drains?
