My first Barley Wine turned out way too sweet...kinda like cough syrup with a hint of hops.

I've used them for bittering and I didn't detect any fruity flavors, but I thought they were very clean and let the flavor and aroma hops shine through.

Usually it is always better to let it wait another week than to bottle or keg too early. Let us know how it turns out.

I had plenty of Hopslam last year and it was $16 for a six. Now it is $18 for a six here and I just can't do it for that price when I could try to clone it and spend roughly the same amount for 5 gallons. Thanks for the hop info, I might try this.

General Homebrew Discussion / Re: three tier systems how do they work
« on: January 19, 2011, 08:43:35 PM »
A tier system uses gravity to move the liquids from hot water tank to mash tun, and mash tun to boil kettle instead of using pumps. There are tier systems that use pumps as well, but if you have pumps you can have all on the same level.

I doubt it will contribute very much at all to bitterness, just aroma.

Yeast and Fermentation / Re: What stops US-05?
« on: January 19, 2011, 08:29:39 PM »
When I use 05 and mash at 152-154, my FG is almost always below 1.010. What temp did you ferment at?

I'm going to brew my Porter, but for the first time I'll put some vanilla beans in for the last week or two

I was converting a fridge into a kegerator. I was so happy that I got it for $10.
