    post talks about why steeping in a smaller amount of water is better.

  • Posted in thread: Which beers are more suited for short fermentation? on 10-26-2011 at 10:40 PM
    I always let it sit for three weeks in the primary and skip the secondary, you are saying a
    week in the primary is long enough?

  • Posted in thread: Which beers are more suited for short fermentation? on 10-26-2011 at 10:22 PM
    What if you do not use a secondary?

Just the MH #9 and the True brew brown ale...Probably will bottle the MH on Sun and put the brown in the secondary, then that frees up the primary for that hybrid I think. How about you?

Finally got around to brewing. The starter worked fine after 2 weeks in the fridge, I fed it one more time sunday, pitched about half and put some in the vile for the next batch. For shits and giggles I put some yeast from 2 of
the brown ale bottles in my flask to try and build that. It worked great so I may try to use that in something else. That was just a dry muntons ale yeast, now I guess it's a liquid muntons ale yeast. I also used cheese cloth
