I recieved these great stickers today! I'm going to stick them on my grain buckets.

I've been thinking of brewing a quad this winter. I will probably try this one. Any words of advise?

Awesome! It's a gorgeous pour!

Yea I've thought about that. There are decent usb cameras that will slide in in place of one of the oculars too.

That's good. For what it's worth I bought my scope (Amscope B490) for $250 on Amazon. It's been a fantastic scope for yeast projects. So even new ones aren't too stupid expensive. If I had it all to do over again I would probably get the tri-ocular type for a USB camera as well as optical. I...

That sucks! Do you have any recourse to get your money back?

I just use the disposable plastic pipettes and measurements in units of "drops". I do make sure to draw the samples while the stir plate is going, and I draw a couple full droppers full and put into a small glass bowl, then I work out of that, using the pipette to stir well before doing the...

I"d recommend a 12 well spot plate to do serial dilutions. I went with a fairly cheap hemocytometer and have been quite happy with it.

No pectin and gelatin are very different substances who both happen to be able to thicken stuff (in different ways).

I guess I had things backwards. I am well aware that hydrometers need calculated to determin fg, but I thought it would still move some kind of relative amount. I figured the refractometer would read lower than the hydrometer. I guess I need to brush up on that, and I guess I'll stick a sample...

Previous Thread So I got the refractometer out, cleaned up some pipettes and took a few samples today. All of the samples ranged from 1.018 to 1.021. (I started with 1.020 wort) so I'm a little confused. They have been incubating at 83F for just under a week, and shaking once or twice per...

Cool, sounds like a good way to go. I bought a few smaller flasks for yeast stuff, and they have a threaded cap. I've been loosening the cap and leaving it at that. But I think I would like to get some foam stoppers for the 2 and 5 liter flasks
