The bottom of the kettle is slightly domed and the kettle we use, we have an outlet on the side of the kettle at the highest part of the bottom. There is a drain at the center in the lowest part as well to get the trub out. Whirlpooling gets most of the trub out but not all.

Both the Revolver Blood and Honey and Community Mosiac IPA are really good beers

I love my job to the point that most of the time doesn't seem like work. I got extremely lucky over the summer and started working for a craft brewery and after a couple of months interning and expressing my intent to stay, came on long term as a brewer in Nov. Here is a quick picture I took at...

Current distribution is kegs and bottles to the DFW area and kegs to Austin. And Currently only bottling Blood & Honey. And shortly will starting bottling the Bock and will be called Malt Lick.

Mash time is correlated with the diastatic (the amount of enzymes) of the grain in the mash. The more diastatic power = more enzymes = shorter conversion time. I know wheat has very high diastatic power and more modified malts do too and corn has next to none. So depending on the ratio of the...

I have yet to do this, but I don't see it being an issue as long as you have propagated it some like the first 2 starters that DonO did in the video and than just make a starter before brewing

fermented the saison

If you dont do anything else to other than propagate the yeast up and store in the starter wort in a jay I've read a few-several months and then suggested to make a starter before pitching. if you go through the process to freeze it you can keep it pretty much for ever

here is video that goes thru the process using Heady Topper instead of Bells but dont think the process would differ

yes i love the show too. i caught up with the show using the extension i posted early since its on netflix next day for england and ireland. Took me a while to really get into this seasons case like i did the original, but after last weeks episode ( or maybe the one before, the one where...
