Great time to try Barke Pilsner Malt…. Save on Recently Released Barke Malt All Grain Pilsner Kit from William’s Brewing

Barke® Pilsner Mashing Kit

Barke® Pilsner Mashing Kit

Made with premium Weyerman® Barke® Pilsner malt, this pale pilsner mashing kit features a rich continental malt flavor, balanced with German Hallertau hops.

Includes 13 pounds of Barke Pilsner Malt, 2 Hallertau hop additions, and priming sugar. Makes 5 gallons with a starting gravity of 1.065. Needed yeast not included, order separately above.

Note: The malt for this kit is unmilled to preserve freshness. If you do not have a grain mill, please pick a milling option. Fine milling is best for brew in bag and traditionial three tier mashing systems, while we recommend coarse milling if you have an electric system like a Mash & Boil, Brewzilla, Grainfather, or Anvil Foundry.

Choosing a Yeast

Interesting yeast choices with this one. Pick LalBrew NovaLager if you want an easy to use yeast that is forgiving of temperature variations. Pick Wyeast 2206 Bavarian Lager if don’t mind a yeast that is more fussy temperature wise, but will deliver a very clean lager if you keep it between 65 and 68 degrees F. Pick Fermentis SafBrew LD-20 (yeast with enzymes for the lowest final gravity) if you want a very dry and crisp lager with the maximum alcohol content. Keep in mind LD-20 will ferment the beer down to 1.000 or less, and it will be harder to naturally carbonate if you use sugar to carbonate, due to the higher alcohol content. This is not a consideration, of course, if you keg your beer and force carbonate.

“Ever since the first alt bier hit my lips I’ve been hooked on this style! Germany has alot more to offer than just their lagers and this is a great example!” Ryan recommends a step mash. He likes to dough-in at 130F for a 15 minute Protein Rest, and then raise to sacharification rest of 154F for 60 minutes before mashing out at 168F. He likes a 45-60 minute sparge with 170F liquor. Ryan also recommends a 90 minute boil for this style, so hold off on those hops until you are 30 minutes into boil. You may need to collect more wort than you normally would to compensate for the additional boil-off. Ferment at 62-64 for 2 weeks in primary, and lager or 4-8 weeks at 40F if you can keep your hands off it for that long. Prost!

Kits have been discontinued, but we have the recipes for w00tstout & VandalEyes PA

Back around 2014. Wil Wheaton of Star Trek The Next Generation fame got into homebrewing. At that time he partnered with Northern Brewer to release two recipe kits VandalEyes PA and w00tstout. Since Wil has apparently stopped homebrewing as his homebrew website is currently closed. Northern Brewer has also dropped his kits from their lineup. I have both the all grain and extract versions of w00tstout that I can share with you.

w00tstout was a collaboration between Wil and Stone Brewing that was also released commercially in 2016.

More About the commercial release of w00tstout from Stone Brewing:

Drew Curtis / Wil Wheaton / Greg Koch Stone Farking Wheaton w00tstout
This barrel-aged palate-saver has been a favorite among our fans—and us—since its inception in 2013. Pecans, wheat, flaked rye and bourbon-soaked barrels provide this whopping, complex superhero version of an imperial stout with a profound complexity that makes it ideal for cellaring—if you can wait that long. Now, we can’t say this beer bestows jedi powers, exactly, but your taste buds may just be fooled into believing as much. A special thanks to Amanda Conner, who illustrated this year’s label to support The Hero Initiative.

More About w00tstout from Northern Brewer:

One part über gravity, three parts über geek, this one-of-a-kind imperial stout from masterminds Wil Wheaton, Greg Koch (Stone Brewing) and Drew Curtis (founder, Fark.com) has been likened to drinking the booze-soaked contents of an old-fashioned candy store.
Deep and complex, w00tstout pours pitch black with a clingy cappuccino head erupting in an oaky, nutty bouquet of caramel and vanilla, roasty dark malt and a hint of bourbon.The curious creation of liquor-laced goodness packs in a whopping 13% ABV, igniting a boozy dance of rich flavors; roast and chocolate, vanilla, dark fruits, subdued molasses, oak and warming alcohol are followed by a tinge of spicy rye in the finish. Velvety carbonation softens the creamy, lingering body to balance a brew as complex as it is creative.

Recipe for Northern Brewer 115th Dream Hopbursted Imperial IPA

115th Dream Hopbursted Imperial IPA was a kit that at one time was offered by Northern Brewer. It’s no longer available so here’s the recipe.

I brewed this back in October of 2011 and it was the most hop forward beer I’ve ever brewed and maybe the most hop forward beer I’ve ever had. There are loads of hops in this beer! In fact… 1 lb of hops in a 6 gallon beer. Although nearly all NB kits are 5 gallons, this one was scaled to 6 gallons to compensate for the volume lost to the massive amount of hops.

The recipe relies on a Hopburst Blend that is no longer available. There’s a forum discussion of this back in 2011 and someone sites the Promash analysis that was published listing equal parts Cascade, Crystal, East Kent Goldings and Warrior.

More About 115th Dream Hopbursted IPA:

One pound of hops (yeah, a pound of hops), 9.2% abv, IBUs in the neighborhood of 120, BU:GU ratio of 1.2:1. Hopbursting is a technique that contributes a significant percentage of a beer’s total bitterness through late additions, which as a byproduct creates a psychedelic amount of hop aroma and flavor. This kit uses enough ingredients to brew at least four session beers. If you serve this beer to a Michelob Ultra drinker, he or she will cry. If life were a 1950s horror flick, this I2PA would climb out of the fermenter and turn on its master. Your dentist does not want you to brew or drink this beer. Sorry in advance about your tooth enamel.

Cali Mountain Flash Brewing Kit
Inspired by one of the most iconic craft beers of all time, Sierra Nevada’s Pale Ale features a delicious malt balanced by a firm bitterness, with Cascade hops providing zesty citrus flavors. This perfect blend creates a complex yet easy-to-drink Pale Ale.

Flash Brewing™ Kits
Introducing MoreBeer!’s Flash Brewing™ Kits! Designed for both novice and seasoned homebrewers, these innovative recipe kits allow you to simply mix the ingredients with water and add yeast for fermentation. This streamlined process not only saves you valuable time but also simplifies brewing without sacrificing flavor. Say hello to a faster, easier way to craft exceptional beer at home.

Typically, brewing requires you to boil your malt and hops for one hour, followed by another hour for cooling. Flash Brewing™ eliminates the need to boil. Our Flash Brewing™ malt recipes have been boiled and whirlpooled before they are dried. We then use a HopBite™ shot for bitterness combined with a mix of traditional hop pellets for flavor. Flash Yeast™ starts quickly and consistently produces clean beer that lets the malt and hops shine. The result is a high-quality beer that will absolutely surprise you.

If you want to read more about the development of Flash Brewing at MoreBeer! or have more questions please read our Frequently Asked Questions.

Equipment Required for Flash Brewing™
Flash Brews can be fermented in any wide mouth 6 or 7-gallon fermenter you already own. We suggest a wide mouth fermenter so you can easily pour in the ingredients. The 7-gallon Fermonster fermenter is a perfect choice. If you are new to brewing and need a fermentation kit, click here.

Adding Fruit to Your Homebrew Using Amoretti Fruit Purees and Artisan Natural Flavorings – 40% Off DEAL + Recipe for Wildberry Rye Ale!

This review is by Homebrew Finds Contributor Brad Probert.  Brad is an engineer, expert homebrewer and experienced reviewer.  Grab a link to Brad’s website at the end of this review.

Using Amoretti Fruit Puree in Homebrew

I’ll be upfront and admit I’m not a fruit beer brewer. I do enjoy a few commercially available fruit beers, but it’s more as an occasional change of pace than something I regularly seek out or buy on a regular basis. And it hasn’t been until recently that I’ve actually brewed a fruit beer myself. A friend wanted me to make a Peach Pale Ale, and that was my first foray into brewing one. I didn’t use Amoretti products on that beer, but it’s worth a brief explanation of my experience there, in order to contrast it to my experience with the Amoretti products.

Brewing the peach beer, I didn’t have the option of fresh, delicious tasting peaches to make a beer using fresh fruit. Conceptually, this seems like the ultimate solution, but this can limit your creativity to either time of year, or quality of product substantially. My first experimental batch was using a canned puree product. Thick and “sludgy”, this gave a great mouthfeel and cloudiness, but it had a distinct “dried fruit flavor” to me. It wasn’t as bright and popping as I had wanted.

For the second batch, I did a combination of the same canned puree, but also added some natural flavoring extract I got from my LHBS. That got me more brightness and pop in the flavor, but it also came with hints of alcohol-y flavors, and somewhat artificial aroma. In the end, through working a combination of this canned puree and flavor extract, I got a beer that turned out well, but I didn’t feel either was exactly the perfect tool for fruit beer.

I saw Amoretti fruit purees and thought I’d give them a try to see if they provided a better option. Amoretti set me up with some bottles of their craft puree as well as their artisan natural flavor compounds. Both are advertised as additions to your beers, with concentration recommendations printed on the containers. The craft puree comes in a large bottle with a hand pump like a soap dispenser. Specifically designed for you to either add flavoring in bulk to your whole keg, or just a squirt into your glass before you fill it with beer. To make a sort of fruit-flavored-Randalizer.
