Based on all the great keezer build threads here I did one, and I'm having trouble with one thing: how to route the beer lines so that they are always going "up."
I read that this is very important... but the keezer is gettign really cramped, and I tried taping the beer lines in lengthwise...
I'm not too worried, but I haven't seen this before so I'd thought I'd ask. I made a starter for WLP007 Dry English Ale Yeast (4 liters on a stir plate).
0 hours - At the start it looked like tiny pieces of yeast in wort. So far so good.
8 hours - After sleep it looked like chocolate milk...
I bought a turkey fryer propane burner and pot from walmart a few months ago (here's a link: 36 Quart Turkey Fryer, Garden & Patio | Walmart Canada - Save Money. Live Better. ).
Problem is, it takes about 40 minutes to bring 30 L to a boil. Is there a replacement burner (maybe a jet nozzle?)...
Are there any opinions on which is better? Is there even a difference? This is for a red IPA, a dunkel, and assorted other beers in the future.
I can get a bag of Cargill Munich for $43 and a bag of Dingemans for $57.
Thanks!
I'm having trouble getting a clear answer on this.
When using a stir plate, how long should you wait until you cold crash it?
I can never seem to tell when a stir plate starter is finished. There's almost no krausen. How can you tell it's finished it's work and started building its reserves...
