Flying Dog – Raging Bitch Clone on Rye – Belgian IPA Imperial – Grain to Glass – Part 2 of 2
This is a tribute to Fly Dog’s Raging Bitch beer. Essentially I found as many clone versions of it as possible to come up with my version of it. I intentionally substituted the first bittering hop addition of Warrior for Columbus as I was out of Warrior. I also added 1 lb of Rye to play on the spiciness of the already spicy brew.

Belgian Witbier – Jovaru Lithuanian Farmhouse yeast – Candi Wit – Grain to Glass – Part 1 of 2
Belgian Witbier – Jovaru Lithuanian Farmhouse yeast – Candi Wit – Grain to Glass – Part 1 of 2
Belgian Witbier brewed with Cascade Belgian Wit Candi Syrup and Jovaru Lithuanian Farmhouse yeast.
I had a lot of fun making this as it really is a bit of a hybrid but when thinking of a Witbier the Lithuanian farmhouse yeast called Jovaru with its lemon pith and black pepper just sounded perfect for a Witbier. Plus I went for Pacific Jade hops which offer aromas of citrus (more lemon) and black pepper and then you throw in the Cascade Belgian wit candi beer syrup with the orange peel and coriander it simply sounded perfect.

Stop, Wasting your time! Why you need a Jaded Brewing Scylla for your next brew!
All in One brewing systems like the Grainfather, Mash & Boil, Robobrew, DigiMash, Anvil Foundry and the list goes on… have all come a long ways and are only getting better each year but the chillers they come with are not even close to what Jaded Brewing’s Scylla can do for you.
If you don’t own a Jaded Brewing Scylla immersion chiller, you need to watch this video and my other Jaded Brewing Video
My only mistake in buying a Jaded Brewing Scylla immersion chiller is not buying one sooner.
The Jaded Brewing Scylla immersion chiller is essentially 3 – 25′ copper immersion chillers in one. Equipment Discussed in this video:

I made this to show the first time brewer just how easy a brew can be with very little equipment purchases. This was very inexpensive and the tools needed are inexpensive too.
Ultimate Scylla Immersion Chiller from Jaded Brewing – Review
Ultimate Scylla Immersion Chiller from Jaded Brewing – Review First this is not a paid review, simply an immersive review aka testing of the Scylla Immersion Chiller from Jaded Brewing.
I purchased my first Scylla from Jaded Brewing a little over a month ago and was so impressed with its performance I had to buy another one based on a theory I had of massively decreasing the time it took me to chill my wort even more from my home brewed beers using two in a series. And this is where my story begins for this video. Please enjoy the video and feel free to share it with your home brewing friends.
