    an American in France looking to get back into it

    Sorry for kicking a year old topic, but I'm also interested in the Brewtaurus gear. Specific the K70L kettle and PF55L Conical fermenter. I'm still hestitant because I read so few reviews. Any more people with Brewtaurus experiences?

    Oak Chips?

    If you use oak chips make sure you sanitize them, for example by soaking them in vodka. Other than whiskey vodka won't give much flavor to the oak. I used oak in a couple of imperial stouts which turned out great. Currently I have a barley wine conditioning on oak and whiskey.

    Trappist rochefort 8 recipe

    Bart from the Netherlands

    Hello from the southern part of the Netherlands (Eindhoven area). My first brew was 7 years ago, a liquid malt 'brew' which I didn't like that much. In the next 5 years that followed I didn't brew anything until the big C popped up. I picked up the hobby again but this time all grain only. I...
