I simply can not figure this out.. The problem is as pictured. The o ring is fine and intact, teeth are fine for the fitting. I was rebuilding the collar and took it all apart, now it wont work! 2 of the three taps are like this, upon insoection they are all exactly the same. Maybe the metal...

Working on this recipe, it's not a cream ale by any means, however i intend on mashing high, adding lactose, and using a lower flocculating yeast (Munich from Lallemand) for increased mouthfeel and "creaminess." 6lb 2 row 1lb white wheat 1lb flaked oats .5lb cara 20l .25lb honey malt 4oz...

Vial of Brett pitched 1 week ago, yesterday it was clear and today this! Doesn't look like any Brett pellicle I've seen before however

I'm familiar with browning oats in the oven, however where I will be brewing, there is no oven available. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with toasting oats in a pan on the stove top. Probably going to try it anyways, but I'm just wondering if it's been done by anyone here!

I'm putting together a recipe of 60/40 Vienna/white wheat and maybe a touch of oats, as well as bitter orange and coriander late boil. Fairly standard recipe, however I'm thinking of fermenting with lallemand Abbaye at a lower than usual temperature (~63) to reduce its ester producing...

My project ended up fermenting dry much more quickly than expected. By dry I mean under 1.000. There was also brett and a lactobacillus in the mix, which I'm going to assume does not haave enough nutrients to do its thing. I'm contemplating adding more juice (this was a cider in question) to the...

Posted in the wrong area, this is a repost started 14 may 2017 I recently got a vial of the yeast stated in the title from the White Labs vault. Its description is as follows: WLP616 Funky Cider Blend ** NEW ** This blend of yeasts and bacteria for cider is a blend of two Saccharomyces...

I recently got a vial of the yeast stated in the title from the White Labs vault. Its description is as follows: WLP616 Funky Cider Blend ** NEW ** This blend of yeasts and bacteria for cider is a blend of two Saccharomyces strains combined with some Brettanomyces and Lactobacillus. This...

Not necessarily a question, more of a story. Last weekend I began a batch of skeeter pee, following the recipe off of the website mostly to a T. By the time I had gotten it in the carboy, I realized I had forgotten literally half of the sugar, as my SG was only 1.030! As I siphoned off some...

Even though she came home with 10 gallons of "fresh pressed cider" with potassium sorbate AND sodium benzoate...

I'm not sure if this is the topic to place this... I decided to try an experiment, hadn't seen a recipe similar on this site yet, although I was inspired by another site. Bringing 5 gallons of water to near boil, I added: 2 cups molasses 6 cups light brown sugar 7 cups dark brown sugar...

Let me preface by saying, I have Googled my face off for this... but I haven't found an answer to satisfy me. I have a saison I intend to add brett to, it finished fermenting and I added 9lbs of blueberries last weekend. I originally intended on letting them sit in secondary for two weeks...

I wanted to share this recipe I sort of pieced together for a little critique. It's been in the fermenter nearly 2 weeks, and the beastly london ale yeast chewed through what appears to be damn near all the fermentables... I missed the numbers I was shooting for, but this is still turning out to...

Just wanted to share this one since it has made me unreasonably excited... I did a partigyle brew yesterday, and the yeast in the big beer totally took off, had to change out my blow off container twice. However the smaller beer showed no signs of life at all, it had used some older yeast I...

Yesterday I created a 2l starter of wlp568, sg of 1.040, today I can see absolutely no progress! I recognize it's only been 24 hours, I should also mention that the vial was out of date hence the starter... my house is a constant 65 degrees and it is on a stir plate with only a paper towel taped...

First off, I know this question has been posted elsewhere, but my currently limited mind cant think of the words to find a good search for it. Just this particular beer in my 3 tap kegerator is having issues, the first beer comes out perfect. the second beer is like 50% foam... I've double...

So I have an absurd assortment of grains laying around, a bit of everything really... I spent a fair amount of time putting this together, theres pretty much no wiggle room in weights, other than hops. Also, I have the hops listed, plus EKG and like a pound of it... also citra but that doesnt...

Got all excited to do a brew on new years eve... went to my lhbs all excited as I'd never been to this one, got my beer and proceeded shopping for my grains. Got it all and handed it over for milling... Mill dies halfway through my 7 lbs of wheat... He comes back to me sad faced with two...
