Damn Devil Double IPA



Well, did everything right, but used 1 oz of Irish Moss instead of 1 tsp. DOH!.. Hopefully it'll turn out drinkable.



 

How much priming sugar for this?....Anyone, anyone?......

How much do you normaly use?  I normaly use 4-5 oz in 2 cups of water.

I'm a new to brewing and am going to try this brew. I don't know what you mean by a full boil. I have 2 five gallon brew pots, but not a 6 gallon. Also, what do you feel about adding oak chips or Irish moss?

I know you already brewed this, but I thought it would still be good to answer.  A "full boil" is simply that, the ability to fully boil all the wort needed to make the entire batch without adding any top off water at the end.  So for a 5 gallon batch, you would want the ability to boil at least 6 gallons.  You could also do a full boil, but split the wort, so in your case that means putting about 3.5 gallons of same strength wort in each 5 gallon pot and splitting the hops between the two.

Exactly what was just said, add whatever amount you would normally use to prime.  Anything from a cup on down should work.  A lot of people go with 3/4 cup, but if you want some extra carbonation, go with a cup, if you want less, go with a 1/2 cup.
