Closing the loop here: I contacted northern brewer about my mis-calibration and they offered to send me a replacement, no questions asked. A+ service.

yes the pic is liquid. showing the mis-calibration. no cracks...This is the plastic one http://www.northernbrewer.com/herculometer-triple-scale-hydrometer too many broken glass ones, really like this, sucks it's not accurate

spot on. thats the problem. what now? is it as simple as adding .010 to each reading?

They all taste fine but these FG seem particularly low. Is this something I should address? Here's 3 recipes that all landed this low. Constants: FG: 1.001 +/- .0001 after 4 days. Mash: No Sparge BIAB 10 Gallon Wyeast Yeast Nutrient* Temp controlled fermentation 1. IPA...

Runs to google....ok that looks pretty effective. I'm going to try that. Great tip!!

I've recently had the opportunity to use both bags and have a range of comparative feedback on each. Equipment Spike 20G Kettle Heavy Duty Pulley System w/ Unistrut trolley Many 10G BIAB Batches with anywhere from 15 - 33 lbs of grains Spike Temp Probe inside kettle (you'll see what...

I found another setup using a Needle valve for flame control. Looks like this is just what I need. I'll place this on the end of the flex tubing. http://www.homebrewing.org/Needle-Valve-For-Propane_p_1726.html

I've read a bunch of articles on the topic but I'm missing some finer details. Mostly, how do you adjust the flame? Do I install an adjustable regulator on the new flexible gas line? See plan below with question marks where I'm unsure. My plan: T off Black pipe in the basement Add Shutoff...

I went to pour a beer and nothing came out. Looked at the C02 gauge and it read 0. I had 2 kegs tapped, both homebrew and fully carbed and pouring nicely. Fortunetaly one keg was about empty, but the other was nearly full. It could have been on 0 pressure for as long as 5 days. I tried to...

Great feedback as always. Beginner worries, nothing to see here, move along. Thanks all.

See pic. IS this OK? Process: Chill Wort to 75degrees Aerate with spoon Sprinkle Dry Yeast right from package on top of foam Wait 20min Spoon mix sprinkle remaining dry yeast on top of new foam cover and ferment for a week I'm new to this but based on the OG of 1.054 and current...

so no need to clean or sanitize the primary? just keep on pouring over w/ a new batch? I'll assume you need your wort fully chilled before the pour over as well so as not to kill the yeast, is that accurate?

One thing I wasn't sure of is what to do w/ the sludge at the bottom of the fermenting bucket. I chucked it in the woods. I've read that people re-use yeast, I guess I could leave it in there and pour the new brew on top w/o cleaning sanitizing the bucket?

Last weekend I racked the Pale Ale. So far so good. No signs of contamination I also brewed a Kolsch from Northern Brewer. I got some new supplies (spoon, strainer) that made brewing much easier. I also picked up 2 used corny kegs for $60/e from LHBS. I plan to Keg the Pale Ale this weekend...

i work in KoP and am interested. Are you nearby?

only one way to find out :drunk: my airlock stopped bubbling since I popped the lid to measure the SG. I hope i didn't contaminate it.

good tips so far. thx Lots of suggestions to let it ferment in the primary bucket and not rack it at all. Im curious if there's any down side to racking it? I ask because id like to open up the bucket for another brew this weekend.
