    Non-wheat recipe for Lallemand Munich Wheat Beer Yeast

    Yes, I realize that sounds like a contradiction in obvious terms, but hear me out. I'm not a fan of wheat beers in general, and I picked up this yeast with the idea of using it in a Märtzen, not realizing this is geared more toward Witbiers (and what Lallemand replaced this yeast with...

    Keg Fermenter - IPA - when to dry hop before fermentation is complete?

    Currently have a Summit Saga IPA homage fermenting in a corny keg in the ferm chamber, bubbling away (no spunding). I have a 1060 OG, heading for (hopefully) a 1011 FG. Currently at 1050 about 28hrs in. The recipe calls for a 3 day dry hop. I've heard others drop their dry hops very near, but...

    Duotight ball disconnects - experiences?

    I need more beer & gas ball disconnects. All of my lines are 4mm EVABarrier, using duotight-to-1/4" MFL connected to standard ball disconnects. Since everything I have is duotight, these looked really interesting. I haven't seen them listed at US suppliers (yet), and wondered if anybody has...

    BoPils now 23 days in primary @ 12C/53F - still do a diacetyl rest?

    I have a Bohemian Pilsner that I pitched on June 6th, and then left town on business. Fermented in a corny keg. Still sitting in a 12C/53F keezer. Used 2 packs of W34/70 for good measure. :) Now it's 23 days on, I'll check the gravity when I get home, but I fully expect it to be fairly close...

    Sizing down an AG 5-gal kit: it's just simple math, right?

    Sorry if this seems like a silly question... I've recently received two AG kits for 5 gallon batches. The grains were all mixed in a single bag for each recipe. Going to use an AF 6.5 to brew. Figured I'd split each recipe down the middle and do 2/2.5gal batches. So I'll weigh the grain and...

    Dry Hopping - Sealed (serving) Keg - O2 free?

    So I'm pondering the efficacy of dry hopping in a serving keg, O2 free. Would it work to: 1. clean and sanitize a serving keg 2. add dry hops to one of the mesh tubes, suspend in the serving keg (weighted with marbles to prevent floating) 3. add 1-2 gal of sanitizer to this keg (so the hops...
