Hey All! Finishing up my yeast starter (WLP830) for my first lager and planning to brew a simple bitburger clone this weekend and had a question about the lagering temperatures... I am following a BYO recipe that states - pitch and ferment at 55 , d rest at 60 for 2-3 days, lager at 38-49 for 4...

Calculations are all correct and no stir plate for me... :) I am making a two step yeast starter so I only need the one pack...

just going by the yeast calculator... :) calculator says it needs at least 318B cells for the 1.045OG .

Hello! I am attempting my first lager brew, have done many ales, and have a question about the yeast... Normaly I use liquid yeast with a starter... Planning on brewing a lager (5 Gal) with an OG of 1.045. the yeast calculator is saying I need at least 3 liquid yeast packs (mfg date is 9/22/22)...

Hello: I brewed a Left Hand Milk Stout clone and just kegged it. I have been trying to find some information on what PSI the CO2 should be set at. I usually set at about 11-12 for my ales (temp of kegerator is 42). Is it okay to keep it at 11? Most info i found seems to be Nitro settings...

I tried to open the bucket and I guess I rocked it a bit. Started bubbling away late last night. So I left it. Still bubbling this morning. So I'll take a reading in a week or two to see. Thanks!

Hello: Just wondering if I can get some thoughts on my California Common. This is the first time I am using a lager yeast and I am not sure if this is normal or not. I am using the Wyeast 2112 that was dated 5/21/17. I made a starter for it and pitched it this past Saturday 7/29 and have...

Hello: I've looked through this thread for an extract version but not only seem to see the all grain or one that says is an extract but starts with 6 gallons of water... I was hoping to see if anyone has an extract version or get thoughts on one I tried to convert: (3.5 gallons to start)...

thanks for all the help! I'm still green with yeast starters. Done about 5 of them and never a 2 or 3 step one. But now is the time to try! :)

that is what I was getting with the 1.5 liter starter. But on Brewer's friend it ends up with 190 Billion...

I am starting with the Wyeast pack from 10/12/16. I don't have a stir plate, just using the shaking every time I walk by method... what is the best calculator to use? All 3 show differing rates for starters to get the proper amount of viable cells - Brewer's Friend, Brewunited and Yeastcalc...

Thanks. So according to that calculator for a 5.5 batch I would need 251 Billion cells. So I can do a two step starter each being 1.5 Liters and ending with a total of 264 Billion cells. Does that sound correct?

Thanks! So if I am using this right, I am making a high gravity ale - 1.067 OG. (5.5 gallon wort volume) Using the target pitch rate of Pro Brewer 1.0. The yeast I just got is from 10/12/16. Wyeast 1764 So I'm getting a target pitch rate of 336 Billion cells. Am I reading this correctly?

thanks! I do have another question about the starters. What is the second and third step? Is that making another starter from the original?

Hello: I am using the Brewer's Friend yeast calculator and had a question about the stir plate choices they have. What would be the difference from the Braukaier-Stirplae and the C. White Stir Plate under growth model and aeration? Are they not both stir plates? Sorry if this is a simple...

So if making the partial recipe for this would it matter if I used Pilsen or Golden DME?

Tasted great. No worries at all! Just need to get more kegs now so I can store more!

From what everyone told me and from what I did I just disconnected the CO2 when it was fully carbed and stored it. I'll be drinking it this weekend so I'll let you know how it is... It's only been two weeks at room temp though...
