[...] The next flavor to hit me was coriander. Now, I knew it was coriander for two reason. The first being I knew that coriander has a citrus flavor to it and the second being Alex told me as much when he gave me the beer. I also learned some other neat things about this wonderful seed from here. [...]

I was wondering if you can give me more details on the mash schedule.

Is this right?
2 Gallons of water at 132, add 1.25 lbs Cara-Pils/Dextrine and .5 lbs. Caramel/Crystal 120°L in grain bag
reduce to 122 for 30 minutes
Increase to 154 for 30 minutes
Increase to 168 for 10 minutes
Sparge with 1/2 gallon of 170 water and remove grain bag.

Remove from heat and add 6 lbs. German Pilsner Malt, 2 lbs. Munich Malt, 2 lbs. Vienna Malt
Reurn to heat and bring to boil.

Add hops per scedule
Add 2 1/2 gallons of water
Cool, aerate and pitch yeast.

Thank for your help and the recipe. I’m looking forward to doing this. I know I’m a little late but it’ll have to do. I will be kegging it by the way,

Chad

using the pumpkin itself is messy and time consuming. I made an excellent pumpkin ale just using the seeds. I rinsed them off, coated them with cinnamon and brown sugar and roasted them in the oven at 325 degrees for about 10 minutes. I’ve made pumpkin ale quite a few times and this by far was the best pumpkin ale I ever made. it’s currently July and I wanted to get a jump on making pumpkin ale so I went to the grocer’s bulk food section and bought a pound of raw shelled pumpkin seeds. I’ll let you know how it turns out this time. it’s in the primary right now. just bought more seeds the other day and ready to make another batch.

I made mine watertight with silicone. I couldn’t handle the infrequent drips.

Comment on Basic Brewing #4 — Bottling the Beer by Roko Peros

2 weeks is the going rate so to speak. I have seen them carbonate in 10 days and I have seen them carbonate in 1 month. I would suggest waiting at least 10 days, popping one open day by day and finding your optimal carbonation level. Good luck!

Is it required to let them age for 2 weeks in the bottle. If not how long should you let the beer sit to carbonate?
