Welcome to HBT, and brewing your own. Is that a Mr. Beer kit? If it is, more than likely it will have ale yeast for all kits. It would be nice for us to know so we can better help you.

My latest done on a Akorn Griller [/URL] And one I did before that one [/URL]

Well it will be late in March when I get there, but I'll be sure to let you know when I do.

I bought mine a few years ago from here http://www.richters.com/Web_store/web_store.cgi?searchterm=hops&search_catalogue_button=Go and as they come as a plant, I had no trouble getting them to grow, and with the season you guys get compared to mine, you should have no trouble making a go of it.

Hey Infected, I hope to be up your way this March. I'll be staying in Largo. Welcome to HBT

Welcome to HBT

Welcome to HBT from the extreme East Coast,

Ha, just going to tell you that :) Welcome to HBT

The reason for it, I was told, is that the excessive shredding of the husk by a corona mill produces more tannins. In any case that is the only variable I changed, and my problem disappeared, so I have to say for me it was the mill.

So have anyone experienced any fusels and esters when doing a warm pitch of lager yeast?

http://www.howtobrew.com/ should be the first book you read. Good luck.

The best value mill. That's a question that's subjective. Depends on your values. I had a corona knockoff , and still do. It gave me reasonable crushes after I got accustomed to it and I made some award winning beers from it. One thing that was constant was the astringency issues I always had...

Welcome Canadian1 For a lot of good advise, a lot of guys, myself included, refer to www.howtobrew.com But you will also find a lot of your answers can be got from posts on this site. Cheers

Good luck on your entry. The organizer says so far they have 334 entries to judge.
