I'm fermenting a red american IPA with 20% rye. I'm calling it ryeding the red river. Just like the inspiration for the name it made a sticky red mess all over the floor while brewing. It has inspired me to wire up a float switch so that my top down recirculating sysyem doesn't overflow when the grain bed gets stuck.
