I'm using a California Ale (White Labs) I'm hoping that as well.

I was in the same boat. I made a 1300ml starter chilled and decanted. I then put 2000ml of fresh wort on top of it and it is currently overflowing, not crazy but pretty good. Should I keep it on the stir plate (please say it's ok to leave on the stir plate cause I'm already at work)

Absolutly right flars. I am a central supply clerk for a nursing home. If memory serves me correct welding O2 is 90-95% pure. There is also no fungicide. I don't think the Docs write a script for fungus.

No it wasn't thrown. It might be moving to slow I don't get a vortex after about 18hrs. I think it might be that yeast. I made a starter last year with the same strain and it did the same thing, but as you stated not having that happen with a stir plate I thought it would be different.

I used niced sized neo mags from a hard drive. I think I am going to swap out the power supply. I am obviously not going to use a size that will fry things but I'm thinking I'm gonna go 10v. I 'm not happy with the vortex in my flask 12 hrs after the initial start.

I'm brewing the NB Bavarian hefeweizen kit. I upgraded some equipment so to sofeten the blow I'm brewing this for the old lady.:mug:

Yep! The power supplly was way to big. I wired a new rheostat, and cell phone charger into it and it is working great! Thaks again! :mug: :ban:

The rheostat is 25 ohm 3 watt. I do believe my power supply is way to big at 12 volts 17 watts. I have a ton of cell phone chargers at home that I am going to man handle as soon as I walk in the door. Thank you guys, I am more than sure the power supply is the problem.

Hello everyone, I was just getting ready to put my stirplate together and I wanted to test it. I have your typical project box with 12 v fan, rocker switch, and rheostat. When I plugged the power in I flipped the switch and the fan started no prob I decreased the power and all of a sudden the...

Hey guys I was looking for some advice an opinions. I am wanting to upgrade to 5 gallon all grain. I have been doing 3 gallon but now I want to get a burner and a larger kettle. I was looking at the heavy duty 10 gal brewpot and Bayou Classic with the banjo burner for around $225. I could get...

Belle saison was the first pitch. When I noticed the temps and no fermentation. I pitched the wyeast canadian belgian.

lmao!

Saison

Tasted it. It doesn't taste bad. A little sour but not bad.

I have not tasted it. I have opened it 3 times. 1 to pitch more yeast after temps were well over 90 almost 100. 2 to take the pic at the start of the thread. 3 now. But now Im gonna open it again to taste it.

3 gallons in an ale pail.

I'm still trying to read the hydrometer correctly but my OG around 1.040 and the gravity now is 1.005 ish.
