In my little experience, it gives you better performance if you have a mt and a lt. I've tried it in a 10bbl system and a 15bbl system with a mlt and is not worthy. It compact the grain bed, is a pain in the azz to lauter because it get stucked, and the wort doesnt clarify enough. Although is...

Damn it!! I don't understand how to cut or fold the template. I'll download it anyway and see if someone can help me. Thanks.

Really not, is not likely to have 99.5% identical genome. And it's very interesting that wasn't found a long time ago in europe.

Yes, really interesting. I was reading this on the subway on my way to work and I was wondering how many times I came across with this mushroom without no idea of what he was able to do. Anyway, I agree with Bensiff. It's very unlikely that this could have hapened. The "white man" didn't get...

Good Tip, it's very important not to boil the water. The perfect temperature for water (at least here in Argenitna) it's between 80º and 84º Celsius. As Denny's Evil said. Over that temperature it gets very tannic and binding (I think thats the term, I don't know how to describe well the taste...

Really amazing work. I would like to see some pictures of the working process if you can. Congrats!

Geez!!! Now I feel completely scamed by a pink panther´s chapter!! I hate this thread... :(

Why Chuck Norris votes aren't counted???

I'm between Iodophor and Chuck Norris! There is no such a product like satrsan in my country. Anyway we use alcohol to a 70% concentration (not as cheap as iodophor, but much more easy to obtain... And It's also very effective!)

You quote me out of context... My point was that you can have the best quality process and/or product and nevertheless your product don't taste good (for me, you, or anyone). I prefer brewing beer that I enjoy rather than guiding my self by a scientific study made in big breweries.

Agree about everyone enjoys a different way/part of brewing, some like more the robotic-tedious stuff, others DIY equipment and hardware, others experimenting every time (And maybe there are even guys that like washing and cleaning all the stuff after a brew-day :drunk:). But when someone ask...

There is any way to find this studies on-line? I would like to read them.

I don't think the debate is about better or poorer beer. The debate was about that pitching on the yeast cake is a bad practice and it's always detrimental to beer. And I couldn't disagree more. It is just a practice, and if you do it right and carefully, you obtain great results (and also have...

Ok, this should be on the "What are some of the mistakes you made...where your beer still turned out great?" thread... Once (I don't know how it happened) I lost a nottin in my bedroom, and found it 6 weeks later. I must tell that where I leave, average temp at that time of the year was 30ºC (I...

Hi, I was not going to post because the OP was discouraging in this aspect. But is very sad to see how you confuse new and/or amateur brewers. It's not a bad practice to pitch on your yeast cake, you can tell me there are better practices and I'll agree with you, but like any other practice if...
