This sunday I am going to attempt your wookey jack clone. I had to change the amarillo to pacific jade and the caramel rye to caramel wheat. My question is when do I start the dry hoping. DO i start it right when i add the yeast or do I wait a couple of days, and about how long will it ferment for. Thanks for any tips

Hey Joe, I haven't actually made this yet, but whenever I dry hop, I wait till after fermentation is complete. I usually crash the yeast after fermentation, then add the hops for 3-7 days. Fermentation will be complete when the gravity no longer changes for 3 days straight ( as a general rule)

Yo dude, you mind sharing that Irish stout recipe? reviving some yeast from many moons ago and hoping for another stout like we made back in the day. tasty and a little too drinkable!

yah dude.. I'll see if I can dig it up.. if I remember though. we over sparged, then boiled down, but added hops in a sidecar to make the IBU's balance.. and it actually worked!

Thanks Dude, Waiting for the yeast to kick, three days on a stir plate and not much happening. Hope I didn't lose my whispering skills. Not sure how to approach the side car with this system but sure it will happen
