  Sorry, wasn't trying to call you out on poor sanitation. There's a difference between
  sanitation and sterilization. There's always bugs around, and wort is a great growth medium for
  a lot of them. Hec...

  Sounds like you made a 10L wort stability test, and it failed the 3 day test. Not sure what the
  flavor impact will be on your beer, but when I've done wort stability tests it has smelled
  terrible. You...

  There's also the possibility that the yeast are suffering from a lack of nutrients. Not sure
  what % of the fermentables the honey and agave were, but alone they offer very little
  nutrients. Along with...

  They get out competed. The likelihood of you getting something in your jars is really low,
  especially if it has to survive boiling hot and refrigeration. I just wanted to let you know
  that it is a pos...

  Personally, I'd use a pressure cooker. There are bugs that can survive boiling temperatures,
  and they are some of the nasty ones. You're basically giving them a buffet with no competition.
  I wouldn't ...

  Isn't Jester King in Austin? I believe they have a 100% brett saison. Could be wrong but about
  that but they have a lot of funky beers to think about harvesting from.Jester King just came
  out with El ...

  I forget where, but I've heard the same thing, but only when in the presence of oxygen (so no
  worries in your brewing).The explanation I heard was that in the wild (say, on a piece of
  fruit) the yeast...

• Posted in thread: How to fix sour recipe with low primary FG? on 03-15-2013 at 03:53 PM
  Wow, thanks for all the responses. I really like this yeast because of its pepper/citrus flavor
  mix, is there a less attenuative or similar version out there somewhere? Would adding
  maltodextrin or fl...

  I'm rebewing a sour saison base beer I made a few weeks ago. The last one I put onto cherries
  and added the dregs of one of Jester King's sour saisons. I want to have a similar un-cherried
  beer to com...

  I just transferred (and tasted) my batch with Cote de Blancs. It had a lot more mouthfeel than
  what I remember from last year's batch with 1118. But it filled my whole apartment with egg
  fart smells f...
