Started home brewing about two years ago (2/5/2010) with a friend. It turned out all the friend wanted for me to buy everything an invest no time so he could tell people he brewed beer. So I stopped brewing for a while. Did a couple batches here and there. Moved into all grain about a year after my first brew and have been enjoying it more since then. Mostly use the biab method as I live in an apartment.
Just got my first kegs and my roommate into brewing about the same time. A little worried the apartment may run out of room soon due to brewing stuff. haha. - The Innkeeper

I did something like this with a smaller 2 gallon bucket on an experimental beer I made a few
weeks ago. I put plastic wrap over the top and took a longer bit to use kind of like a rope

Why? Whats the advantage of doing a solera with sacc beers?A solera really seems to come into
it's own if you do Lambic or Flanders style beers (wild brews). It is a long-term investment

@motobrewer - I hope we get to see that up here. It would be nice to try a beer like this

I was wondering if anyone has done/tried doing a solara for beer type thing before or if anyone
had any thoughts on this that hasn't done it.Me and my roommate were talking last night about
this and d...Posted in thread: Fermenting Temperature Swing on 03-26-2012 at 07:01 PM
From what I've read about things like this happening, the yeast could be a little stressed or
slowed down in converting sugars. If you are going to bottle condition you may want to add a
little more o...Posted in thread: acetate caused by sugar? on 03-26-2012 at 01:44 PM
