I have read it is a good combo and I will be trying on my next batch.

I use a Ranco with a fermwrap around my conical to heat it. http://morebeer.com/products/fermwrap-heater.html

3L starter and 2 vials of Brettanomyces bruxellensis Trois is what I am making up today for my Farmhouse ale.

Sorry man but it is not the yeasts fault check your process.

Works for me and I use both, but I would not say Mr.Malty is horrible.

PacMan and WLP002

I just made a Bitter with it and now I am wondering if I will have the same issues.

Sounds crazy to me I own 2 the 19L and the 30L and never have this problem. I whirlpool in the kettle for 20 mins . and let it rest for 45 minutes. I transfer to the Speidel only clean wort and no trub. I actually tilt the Speidel towards the spigot to get every last drop. I think the whirlpool...

Pacman is a beast I use it a lot and have it on the stir plate now. I think Wyeast is the only one that makes it.

We have a club about 40 mins North of you Lapeer Area Brewers.

All my beers I do not see a need for a second vessel. Pitch and ferment in one vessel when fermentation is done its done. I dry hop in the primary when fermentation is 70-80% done leave for a week and keg. This is the Tasty McDole method and I like it a lot.

You will still benefit from the whirfloc I only use a half tab per 5 gallons. I would still dry hop even though not a fan of cascade as a dry hop.

I think there is about 14ml of slurry in a White labs tube.

Looks normal to me.

A+ to this I use the same thing.
