Made a batch of Pilsner and used this yeast. Didn't have time to make a starter, so I used three packs in a 5 gallon batch. I set my fridge to 55F with my yeast packs inside, chilled wort down to 65 and then into the fridge to get it down the rest of the way. Once it was at 55 F I aerated pure...
Looking for a dog beer recipe similar to Bowser Beer. Non alcoholic and no hops (I know, technically not beer). Just curious if anyone had ever tried to make something.
I got a late start with these rhizomes this year. Got a sprouted NEO1 hop from Organarchy in the mail. Don't know much about NEO1, but they are supposed to be very heat and drought tolerant.
Got it planted the beginning of June in a large raised pot. Setup a trellis using a flag pole that was...
I can second using whiskey to keep the inside wet. Just buy a handle of something cheap and rotate the barrel every couple of days so all sides get some love.
Yea, sorry I should have mentioned that. Beer sat in barrels a few months and then into kegs. I set the CO2 to around 12 and let it sit a few weeks at 36-38F. The porter turned out perfect and the stout is flat.
I just brewed a raspberry porter aged in a barrel and an espresso stout in a barrel.
The raspberry porter carbed up just right, but the espresso stout wouldn't take in any CO2. Not sure why other than maybe oils from the espresso?
I have (3) 10" hurricane burners mounted on a flat level stand. Propane is run through the rail and into solenoid valves controlled by a relay/switch control panel.
I have tried 3 or 4 different types of regulators including a variety of low pressure, high pressure with and without ball...
I'm using a Shirron plate chiller with this trub filter on the outlet of my boil kettle.

Think I am going to get the additional 0.2mm Filter Net for the strainer and add it after my pump instead of in front of it.
I have soaked my plate chiller 3...
Wondering if anyone has had experiences with either of these CFCs and what they thought of them? I am leaning toward the Jaded because it can be cleaned and visually inspected clean.
I'm currently using a plate chiller that clogs regularly. Over it and ready to move to something more reliable.
I brew lots of IPA which requires multiple hop additions at different intervals of the boil. Sometime 6-9 additions portioned out to be added at different times.
I'm wanting to use some type of jumbo pill box or flip top storage container to weigh out my pellet hops and store them before brew...
