    Mangrove Jack's US West Coast Ale yeast M44 experience?

    The beers that I have brewed with the Mangrove Jack yeasts have turned out pretty good! So far I have used the M44 in three batches. Fluctuation is good - attenuation is also good . Is it better then US-05 for a dry yeast ... not sure - pretty similar results. I have also used M15 Empire...

    Pekko Pale Ale: Feedback Request

    Well I kicked the keg of Pale Ale and it was tasty! It was a mix of hops will need to do a SMASH beer with the PEKKO to really understand its flavors ... Pekko looks like a good bitter and aroma hop for pale ales and ipa's. At least from my current experience!-)

    Mangrove Jack's US West Coast Ale yeast M44 experience?

    I used M44 this past weekend for the first time. I did a batch of Pale Ale to try it out. I got this yeast at the AHA conference in Baltimore. So anyway I never used it but I see all the references to slow starts! I chilled my wort to about 60 degrees F and aerated it before pitching (direct...

    Does anyone else ignore their water?

    I agree with the approach that if the water tastes good use it! BUTT (and that is a big BUTT) water can make the beer - especially with certain styles! So as you become a better brewer you start watching more aspects of the process - fermentation temps - Water Chem - PH... So learn as you go...

    What do you do with your spent grains?

    I have made dog treats but I do all grain and can only make so many Biscuits for the boys! I compost most of the grain. They are really good for Blueberry and Azalea bushes both like acidic soil which make spent grain a great mulch for them but would not use it directly on anything else.

    Safbrew T-58

    I recently experimented with T-58 with three batches in a row. Progressively getting stronger with each batch - this batch was OG of 1.066 and a FO 1.006 . The last batch turned out the best because I fermented a little warmer then the first two batches. This third batch I used a sleeping bag...

    Is this pellicle?

    As for Bottle Bombs .. Someone I respect told me that a beer with a final gravity of 1.012 or lower will never be bottle bombs. Since Bottle Bombs are created by the beer continuing to ferment in the bottle that have too much sugar left for the yeast to eat. so make sure your fermentation is...
