Finally got my sour going tonight. Pitched a starter of Boxer's Revenge yeast and a starter of Wyeast Ardennes/Brett lambicus. Who knows how it will turn out? Also kegged up my dark farmhouse. I think I brewed it last September or October. I'll let it sit under pressure for a good long while.
Pellicle porn for anyone who's into that sort of thing.

We'll see. Might try some clarifiers or something. It tasted fine.
Tore down and changed all of the gaskets on all 4 of my kegs. That was nice. Starting to worry about changing poppets and lids though. Not gonna be cheap to do that when needed.

Hops I guess. The head when it is poured is not pure white. The ones I brew that do not have steeped grains are not as bitter. May just do those.

Sounds like astringency then. What temperature are you steeping at and for how long? Just based on that small tidbit of info, it sounds like you're steeping too hot or too long, but that's just a guess based on that one statement. I can't imagine the pH of Bunkie water being all that high to cause a high steeping (mashing) pH.

I need to break down and buy more hops. Going to buy in bulk through LA Homebrew. I am going to split a lb of Simcoe with a buddy. I will probably buy some Cascade, Amarillo and hopefully Centennial. That is a lot of hops though.

You've got a Vacuum sealer?

I do not. I typically keep them in mason jars in the freezer blanketed with CO2 if I am judicious.

That's right. That's smart.

I am typically not judicious with it though.

Kegged a coffee vanilla porter and peanut butter chocolate stout last night. The porter was my first all grain batch and it tasted great before I even kegged it with the coffee and vanilla. Will taste again tonight to see what the coffee and vanilla have done as well as to check the carbonation.

You don't have to rat on yourself.

Sounds tasty to me.

I am gonna bottle my Red Bean beer tomorrow. I'm really excited to try it out. If anyone has ever had Blaine Nauck's red bean beer (it was at last year's Zapp's beerfest) it was my inspiration. I didn't add quite as much red beans as he did but I wanted to go for a little bit more subtle Red Beans and Rice taste.

He gave you the recipe??
He wasn't giving it up the last time I talked to him about it.

yeah, last time I tried it I asked simply just out of curiosity and he wasn't giving any info about it.
glad it wasn't just me.

I was asking for a friend. It's a good beer but not something I'm interested in doing any time soon.
After messing with RO water and salts and acid malt with that pilsner I'm thinking about doing it again with an IPA we're thinking about brewing. #DownTheRabbitHole

No he didn't give me the recipe. I wouldn't have wanted it. He did tell me a few details about the beer as in how much beens he used but nothing on the base beer. I went with my own base recipe and I added 3 lbs of red beans. I didn't cook them down as long as he did, but Im hoping that doesn't make too big of a difference.

Minus the whirlfoc, everthing went well on the last brew with the RO and salts?

What do the red beans add to the beer?
I would have assumed the 'red beans and rice' flavor came from a rauch malt and a combination of spices.
