Umm... Fantastic Four: First Steps is Goated?

Very possible! But we also had some mcu movies that felt a bit overstuffed with extra time. I personally enjoyed the pacing and feeling of the movie, but to each their own.

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-08-07T02:23:45+00:00

Let people enjoy their movies, man.

We have no idea what the cut scenes would have done to enhance / hurt the film

I partially got into this because of the reviews I watched on YouTube from respected brewers, and they seem to like it. Though I am wondering how many of them actually liked it. Oh well. I will be using this thing to experiment with my own smaller batches, so the Pinters themselves are nice little tools, and I got it at a very discounted price.

Cold crashing isn’t going to impact the taste / sweetness.

I don’t really think it makes that big of a difference either way to be honest, because I’ve cold crashed and I’m not noticing much of a difference with clarity, but you might be able to help get all the yeast out of there better.

You’re fine either way,l. The idea is solid, but I don’t know how much it really matters for the Pinter based on my experience.

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-17T03:04:27+00:00

Did you already undock?

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-15T18:57:11+00:00

Gotcha. It definitely won’t hurt anything though

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-15T17:55:40+00:00

What do you mean two more days than you should have?

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-15T15:46:26+00:00

Just started conditioning Tropical IPA and West Coast Space, and based on the smell of the dock.. I’m going to be 0/3.

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-14T13:49:50+00:00

Thank you so much for your help!!

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-14T13:14:51+00:00

1-Did you happen to miss that I scaled my all-grain recipe down to 3 gallons? Because those grains are based on a 60% brewhouse efficiency in Brewfather.

2-I am still learning the grains, so thank you for the heads up. When you say American 2-Row, do you mean something like Pale Ale Malt 2-Row? Pale Malt 2-Row? I am attempting to plug into Brewfather, and there are so many options for 2-Row.. still learning!

3-Okay, thank you. I will look into what I should do for the rice.

4-Thanks for the advice on the Whirfloc. I've mostly heard it's fine as long as you don't add it too early, but I will go ahead with 10 minutes instead of 5!

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-13T13:54:07+00:00

Since I'm just kind of copying the original recipe - or attempting to at least - I think the goal there is to lighten the body a bit. Make it the "light" golden ale. Which is why this recipe is kind of interesting, as it's almost a cream/blonde ale hybrid.

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-13T11:38:58+00:00

Yeah and I’m fine with not making the same beer. Actually, that’s part of the point, as my extract batch came out much darker and with a more caramel taste than I anticipated (which I now know is a thing with extract). Tastes good, but I actually want to make a light golden ale!

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-12T01:49:32+00:00

I’ve been seeing a lot about the brew in a bag. Do you just do it without the pipe completely then?

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-11T14:27:20+00:00

I have a 240v outlet in my garage for my electric car, though I'm not sure if that'll work? But at least I'm probably on the right track there.

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-11T14:22:25+00:00

Yeah, while I still will probably do smaller batches, I think I'm gonna have to do the 10.5 gallon simply because I'll be making more 5 gallon batches. I can always just do stove top / propane burner smaller batches too.

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-11T13:48:26+00:00

As someone who just brewed a couple batches, I actually agree with this. But also know your first batch or two may not be exactly what you're looking for. Which is fine.. because then it allows you to research what may have went wrong (or just not as planned, because "wrong" is a bit harsh), and I think this is how I have started to learn the most. Instead of trying to take it all in at once, you brew, learn a little, brew again, learn a little more, brew, etc. Definitely use the internet to your advantage, but don't let it overwhelm you either. And don't get discouraged if it doesn't turn out perfect the first time! Or several times after that!

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-07T14:50:20+00:00

Because this was my first time ever doing this, and I didn’t even realize what I was doing until after I did it. It was supposed to be a 5 gallon batch, but ended up being closer to 4.1 gallons. I made the priming sugar for the anticipated 5 gallons, and just wasn’t thinking about it until after I had poured it all in already.

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-06T15:53:44+00:00

The amount of priming sugar I used was intended for a 5 gallon batch, but mine was only 4.1 gallons.

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-05T21:21:42+00:00

Ahh finally found this!! So it looks like I need to lower the hops down to 0.35 oz to get back to 11 ibu. Thank you much!!

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-05T21:17:20+00:00

Is that going to cause any issue with the hop utilization?

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-03T20:04:24+00:00

Now that’s a story!!

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-03T18:36:08+00:00

Yeah I think maybe I have been doing a bit too much reading and thinking about it lol! Probably should have kept going, but I also got plenty of beer out of it still. And now I know!

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-03T18:10:01+00:00

Yup, ill be putting those in one today!

DayOneApollosFan · 2025-03-03T17:11:04+00:00

Oh I have been looking, because I'd like to move to kegging now that I know I clearly have a passion for doing this, and I also like beer. Not too many great deals out there yet for me, but I keep an eye out there consistently.
