Any body have any thoughts on using 50 ft of 3/8 vs 5/16 ? I've read it takes less pressure to use 3/8 and that 3/8 holds more beer...... 5/16 is cheaper but does 3/8 work better?

Pros and cons of each? Look to build jockey box and I don't want to have to prechill the kegs. Coldplate better?

What does the baking soda do?

I got a 20G Bayou with a 5500w element so yeah 15 isnt a prob. Can you buy fresh watermelon juice?

I did 2 batches of a similar recipe with different yeast strains. 3068 and 3056 I think. I had this same thing happen I think with the 3056 yeast....does it look like a cup of coffee with too much cream??? Once my gravity hit, I cold crashed it to drop the yeast out. Once it dropped, it...

Thanks for the advice everyone...im thinking now I might up this whole to a 15g batch. That way I have extra for summer.....I scaled it up using beersmith and rounded up the hops and knocked down the LME.... I know allgrain would be cheaper but this is a useup brew.. 12 lbs Wheat LME 12 lbs...

Ive made quite a few Watermelon batches of different variations of LME / DME / hops ranging from 5% - 14% ABV and used 4 oz of the extract per a 5 gallon batch and not a SINGLE person who has tried has said one negative thing. Ive taking batch out to music festivals and camp outs and such...

Any experience with using Apple Juice concentrate as carbonation sugar?

So I have a batch that I transfered out of the primary bucket and into a carboy after 2 months. It was already clear and has remained that way since. Im about to keg it and I wanted to try and naturally carbonate with dextrose. Do you think there will be enough yeast left to carbonate...

I'm gonna have to do a 1 gallon hefen-cutie batch for grins. I think Ill peel then, remove what little pith they have and then purree 2 whole ones (peel and all) and then do what? Boil 15? or in the the fermenter? or steep then in the fermenter? What do you guys think?

I wonder about using fresh squeezed oj in the boil/ferment?

Hefen-cutie?

Good point sittingduck.....I think maybe puree up about 6 of them (whole thing) in the ninja and steep it and throw it in the fermenter ...
