    Stuck Fermentation

    Ok, after looking into it further, I think I did not pitch enough yeast. I am going for it! Big beer or bust!!!! I am going to add a WYeast 1099. When I put it in, should I aerate a bit more or just lightly pitch it? This batch was made from LME. Should I add yeast nutrient or is it ok as is...

    Brewing a big stout. OG 1.08. It has been sitting at 1.04 for 4 days. Temp is 70. Yeast was WYeast 1099. Taste is fine. What should I do?

    Newby Foamy Beer

    Ok will fix it tomorrow! I must have misread it on another thread. What size line is best as far as diameter? I have 1/4 inch inner diameter.

    Newby Foamy Beer

    Yea, the beer line. It was way too long with a loop and though might the problem so I shortened it. It is now about 2 feet long. Will check the temp. Fairly cold. Guessing 36°.

    Newby Foamy Beer

    I have foamy beer! Have changed things according to forum posts. Short, clean, new line. Seems the only way I can get "not foamy" is hardly any carbonation or, ok carbonation (less than I would like) with about 2lbs of serving pressure and a trickle of beer coming out. Any other suggestions...

    Would Wyeast 1099 Whitebread Ale work ok for this recipe?

    Wood-Aged Beer Pirate Strong Ale

    Since the recipe calls for adding yeast nutrient into the wort, is it necessary to make a yeast starter or just use the pouch of yeast as it comes. My local store carries WYeast brand. Which of their products would be good for this?

    Thanks all for your help. My next batch is a Bourbon Ale and will start this one up after that. Will let you know how it turns out.

    Now, what about brown sugar.... Are all created equal or are there some that are better for brewing? Just buy it from the grocery?

    Also, I have a looked a couple places for that particular yeast but cannot find it. Who sells that or what could be substituted for it? Thanks! Sorry for all the noob questions. In way over my head but I MUST make this beer. It sounds awesome!

    Wood-Aged Beer Pirate Strong Ale

    Ok I will go with the dry. To replace the 2 row would I use the same dry light extract already called for by the recipe for a total of 8lbs?
