Hey! I've been brewing kit beer and wine for the last few years and just got a mash tun for Christmas! Looking forward to graduating from extract kits (I've made a few Best Case kits). I'm super stoked to start making all grain and I'm looking forward to learning from this forum and hopefully contributing where I can!
My personal favourite Best Case kit was the Winter Warmer last year. I loved it and I'm about to bottle my second go at it in the next few days. I tried a couple other kits that turned out okay, but whenever I tried making a hoppy IPA they came out more bitter and malty than I expected. I have had a hard time getting the citrusy, refreshing hoppy flavour I'm after with an IPA or APA (I tried dry hopping with some extra cascade even with no luck). Hoping I can achieve that with some all grain attempts!
My first all grain is going to be a Smash beer, 19L
- 4kg Canadian 2-Row
- 3 oz Cascade (1oz @ 60 min, 1oz @ 10 min, 1oz @ 1 min)
- Liberty Bell yeast
My goal is to be able to make a sweet hoppy, strong IPA style beer comparable to Hop City Hopbot, Garrison Hoppy Buoy or Propellor IPA at home!

Re: Hello!
I've just got a 19L canning pot on the stove so I'm planning on splitting the boil in two. I hear that's better than making a concentrated wort and adding water? Open to suggestions
