Crushed vs Ground Coriander

Postby turkeyjerky214 » Thu May 31, 2012 10:47 am

I didn't have as much whole coriander as I thought I did, so when I was at Schnucks getting oranges, I picked up a jar of ground coriander since that was all they had.

For an 11 gallon batch of my Wit, I usually use around 1.5 oz of the crushed stuff. Anyone have any idea of how much of the ground stuff I should use to equal that? Starting my boil in about an hour, so if anyone could help me out within the next two hours or so, that'd be great.

Worst case, I can add the ground stuff post fermentation, but I'd like to add it in at flameout like usual.

Brad, I find your wit dry...

Brian, Brad's numbers seem reasonable, cut it back a bit if you are making a British wit.

Does that make it a half wit?

I don't know if I should feel insulted or complimented.

I WAS going to suggest calling the beer a British Half Wit, but now it seems to have lost it's glamour.

Paul,

How is it we are chided for agreeing with Brad? Is he Mock-ing us?

Brian,

You need the words 'secondary', 'Lanyard', 'Coasters', or 'Money' to create controversy, not 'Coriander'

Guys,

All I can say is that since he brewed it yesterday, we are at our Wit's end!

Does that mean we are witless?

Brad,

Huh???

Joe,

Coasters? What's this about coasters?

Brian,

Is the blonde in your avatar named Cori? I thought that might be Coriander friend...
