Its a pity people are so ready to accept the law of some fucken beer nazis. :lol: Laughing with you. I BIAB as well so that might say something? Wheat seed would be awesome mate, where did you get the barley from? I've got a book called 'The homebrewers garden' and it has some very basic...

Thanks for the link, I need to learn how to use the search function a bit better as this link was what I was after. Took sometime to read and quite a few laughs, man this forum can be full on sometimes.... All I can do is experiment I guess, I would like for the sake of it to grow and malt my...

Im also doing a 4 step cereal mash just over 2.5hrs so that should help.

No worries thanks for that, the beer recipe was on the low end of the wit SG recommendation at 1.044 SG to start with so I added some more wheat to bring it up to 1.046 SG that way I lessen my chances of a Mid Strength.

Thanks citymorgue2 good sound advice, yeah I need to get in on a bulk buy for sure its gets expensive getting grain shipped and I probably only goto Melbourne twice a year. It will be interesting to see how I go extracting the sugars from the wheat, and you response makes me think maybe I will...

Well if anyones interested I bought a 25kg bag of gograins feed wheat from Hunters for $12.50, did a bit more research and punkin your right the feed grain is not sprayed with fungicides which was a big concern for me. Turns out my wife has been cooking with wheat from pet food stores because...

Awesome cheers, I will be giving it ago then..

Cascade first, followed by Hallertau, Perle, and Saaz on end. This is a better one of the Saaz They are all first year my Goldings rotted and the Perle and Mt hood don't seem to be taking off they are a bit stagnant, just had some really humid days and they look like they are ready to start...

Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction for raw wheat other than a home brew store as the nearest is 2.5 hours away. I have seen on some american forums people have used wheat from stock feed stores, has anyone given this a crack? Also I am wanting to grow some barley on my...

Sweet, does the beer taste exactly the same? Look's a bit more expensive than my BIAB set up but probably saves on time.

ha ha, yeah just checking I thought the same thing but was just over thinking and thought maybe it had something to do with the yeast strain?? or something. I just feel strange telling my friends I have a clone beer and it got me wondering.

What defines a clone beer? Cloning is a exact copy of a cell, how can we clone a beer? I apologise for the stupid question but I am honestly interested as to why its called a clone beer. :huh:

Thanks Nick, That makes a lot of sence, I will work on the percentages and scale up form there. I assume the hops work the same way in the software? being I enter the weights for each hop addition, and when I adjust the overall IBU of the recipe it will scale up all the additions? as...

Hi Molly, I have done 7 brews in BIAB and many years of kits and bits. I have worked out my brew house efficiency, and have set all the software settings using online help forums and the brewsmith help. I was just concerned about how I was entering the recipes from other sourse as I want them...

I am fairly new to all grain brewing, I use a BIAB set up and have just started using beersmith2. When I convert recipes from therecipeDB I seem to be getting different IBU's, EBCS, and OG/FG than what is in the recipeDB sheet?? Should I adjust the recipe specs in the software to get the exact...

Thanks heaps, that was easier than I thought it was going to be!! :super:

I have just started using beersmith 2 and was wondering whats the best way to enter the grain info into the software, for example I have some Joe White/Maltcraft Malted Wheat and was wondering how I get the specs? and how I add them? Is there a data base that someone has made? or somewhere to...

I can imagine a high pitched voice person pointing at someone else saying "it was him officer" ha ha!
