Looks like an excellent product.

I have a general procedure before I brew a style i have to make. I will try the commercial versions of the product that I want to brew However this one eludes me. I have tried Weihenstephaner Original Premium and it has the "Imported Funk" as I refer to it. I have also tried Stoudt's Golden...

Probably the wrong phrasing, but with the stir plate operating a full speed it will not force the starter over the top of the flask, perhaps that makes more since. However, I was under the impression, that the purpose of the stir plate was to aerate the starter as yeast is being propagated...

And the obvious answer i think would be Yes, But I want to double check Will a 2000 ML Flask be able hold a full 2000 ML of starter and have a vortex with out the liquid over flowing? Sorry, never took any Chemistry classes.

Question about the brewbuilder, What calculation formula do you use for bitterness?

Was thinking about this and was wondering if anyone has tried dropping a small piece of dry ice into the carboy to help prevent oxidation after transferring to secondary/tertiary

Love your brew builder, I will be ordering from you soon.

I have used these as well, also never had a problem with Saranac or Harpoon bottles.

I am doing my first partial mash. My plan to hit my style target is to take the wort after mash and sparge and add enough water to hit the 5 gal mark. then cool a portion of it and take a gravity reading. then make adjustments to the amount of malt extract to add. Does this procedure make sense?

If i understand this correctly you are going to get a second Immersion Chiller and have one seated inside the other. and have the pump running into both at the same time?

tried that on the first one. it broke the magnet, second one i used a razor blade and it worked fine.

Need some assistance with this not sure how to get the magnets off the larger pieces of metal
