oof!  I'd have to up the carafa spec III up to 12 oz from 6 oz.  this is a 10 gallon batch so maybe that's not so bad but it makes me a little nervous.

I would have said about 16-17 at 7 cm, but that's from memory.

Yeah, I'm going on memory, too.  Guess I'll have to go buy some more!

if one of you guys isn't great at estimating how much beer you were looking through you could be remembering it the same.

 

22 SRM at 5 cm is pretty damn close to 16-17 SRM at 7 cm.

The pic I posted in post #9 is supposed to be 20 SRM

if true I don't think the ayinger beer is more than that.

ha!  too bad.  so far I'm really impressed with both of the ayinger beers I've had.  I'm a little nervous about acquiring some locally (other than the german restaurant in the area) though b/c if it wasn't handled well I could be let down.  these beers seem like they sit on the shelf for a long time at most bottle shops since they aren't the latest imperial/double/IPA/stout/.

Keep watching. If you see the Hefeweizen, Dunkelweizen or Weizenbock grab one as they are all delicious. Unless those styles are completely outside of your wheelhouse.

Make room in what?  The way it is outside you do not even need a beer fridge.  Get brewing

damn!  I need to do a two step starter.  guess I know what I should be doing tonight!

 

probably 1.5L followed by 3.25L to end up with about 750B cells.  I was really hoping I could do this in 1 step but it would basically take a 5L starter which I can't really fit into my 5L flask ;)
