    Aerator and blowoff setup for Grainfather Conical Fermenter.

    Just to add to this, DO NOT aerate your beer while it is fermenting. DO aerate the wort just before pitching yeast :) If you want to take it up a notch, get a mixer you can attach to a drill and use that to aerate your wort before pitching. I picked one up that is usually used for mixing...

    Pitched 2 different yeasts by accident, 1 ale, 1 lager. How to ferment??

    Just wanted to throw in that Brulosophy did several tests a while back with fermenting a lager at ale temps. After doing a taste test with participants, from what I remember most people had a very hard time determining which beer was fermented warm in all versions of the experiment. Check it...

    Hey Sleep Apnea folks!

    I actually do this all the time. I typically only truly wash on weekends and then star san the hose, humidifier chamber and mask during the week. I'm sure that the mask material being so fragile is affected negatively by using Star San, but I think it would take longer than the three months...

    Great article! Completely agree with Second Fiddle as a damn good IPA BTW

    Buckets-O-StarSan vs Spray Bottle

    I had the same transition from feeling like mixing an entire bucket was a waste of StarSan and time to just using a spray bottle all the time. I haven't had any bad batches since moving to the bottle either... I think the best advice would be to get a high quality spray bottle...

    Hey Sleep Apnea folks!

    haha... I've been known to disinfect my mask and hose with Star San... Actually I use the same spray bottle as I use for brewday... What I'd really like is one of those automatic daily cleaners that use ozone, although they're 300$ which I'd rather put into a new brew rig....Decisions decisions....

    Hey Sleep Apnea folks!

    Right on... You're probably right about not moving around as much once you sleep better. In the first week I started treatment I had a sort of hallelujah moment where I woke up in the exact same position as I fell asleep in. This is coming from someone who often finds a lot of the bedding on...

    Hey Sleep Apnea folks!

    What I ended up doing, and I'm not sure if this could cause rainout for some, is take a rubber band, place it around the bed post on the headboard and then tie another rubber band to that one. Then I ran the hose through the second rubber band. This way the hose has more than enough give...

    Subbing this... It's comforting to know there are others suffering from this in the homebrew world

    If you are pressed for time, why do you homebrew?

    I have yet to go back to extract even though I know I'd be able to brew on work days easier. I've been brewing AG for about a year now. My reasoning for not doing decoctions on brew day are basically what you stated, I don't want to run an extra hour or two over. Mainly this is because I have...
