lets see your full Fermenters

I don't think cider will foam to much. But it going pretty good.

Red Dragon - India Red Ale pitch with Conan yeast harvested from The Alchemist's Heady Topper.... cannot wait for this to be bottled.

I think I shouldn't do 20gallons in the same day any more, it's too much work.

Brewed an all Summit IPA this past Sunday.

Had a little extra wort, so got a gallon jug satellite of it going too.

You should see me try to adjust the crush when it's running. LOL

If that is a Barley Crusher, adjusting the crush while its running can break it... severely.

My LHBS has one and some idiots were messinh with it while grinding trying to get a finer crush. They ended up causing the thing the shatter its innards and I was left grinding 17 lbs. by hand.

They finally got it back up and running but now the gap slips randomly... when I was expecting 70% eff from it I got something closer to 60%

Ok Today is it BIG BREW DAY!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait to see all the pic of what was made. Good brewing!

Pitching a WLP-001 starter in 5.5 gallons of Austin Homebrew West Coast Pale Ale. I'll be dry hopping with an ounce of Amarillo... Wøøt!

12gallons of Belgian Blond WLP570 / Wyeast 3522 blend.

Nice... What kind of air-lock fitting is on that 1/2BBL?

http://www.brewershardware.com/american-sanke-keg-fermenter-kit-with-thermowell.html

It's pretty slick and has a racking cane and thermowell. I picked this one up used (thanks marcb) and run it with a std. S airlock. When it's time to transfer, I push a couple of pounds of co2 through the airlock/blowoff port and rack into keg(s) like this...

Brewed up a nice low abv blonde ale for summer! Based off of BM's Centennial blonde but I halved the 2-row and subbed in Maris Otter for some flavor. Also hop bursted with an ounce of Centennial and Cascade.

Here's what I awoke to this morning, about twelve hours after pitching (see photo above).

Here's what I've got racked right now (approx. 1bbl)




Here's a couple videos of some full fermenter magic;

Supposed to be a kolsch on the left, and the right was meant to be an imperial coffee milk stout. I had issues all brew day on the stout and think it will probably top out at 7%

10 gallons of Amber L



ager chugging away.

Kolsch and Newcastle brown clone.

hopslam clone on the right
saison all the rest
american farmhouse yeast on the glass
then WLP500 trappist
then platinum bread yeast... 'cuz why the hell not.

In the middle a blonde canadian ale and on the outside are a chardonnay

Cant wait for all of them to be done so i can start my Hoegaarden clone!

Purple yeast! Racked off the blakcberries and added some fresh wort to top it off. Between that and some bottle dregs, the renewed fermentation has made a bunch of purple yeast.

Not much of a mess really. Just wait till it hits the ceiling at 3 in the morning. You'll wish you had puking kinder-gardeners instead.

Yes it was and the first on a new 1BBL system, we also did a second running on the mash to get 10 gallons of a 4% session ale.

I could take a pic, but you would all see two buckets (IPA and an APA) in a cellar, doesn't seem exciting to me.

yes it does... post it! :fro:

Agreed!

After almost 400 posts on this thread I still enjoy looking at full fermenters. Even though they all look pretty much alike.
