    Great point. Will do. An adventurous night so far.

    First time all grain

    Because it is 1241 in the am here I had to use tubing on hand. I pulled the innards out of the airlock and shoved a tube over the inner plastic section. I did not have a tube small enough to run it straight through the airlock hole ( plastic fermentors for primary). Seems to be working great...

    After two lid blow-offs I just created a blow off through the airlock into a milk jug with sanitized water. Sanitized everything but concerned about the blow offs. Read several posts that said basically not a huge deal so I will press with blow off in place. Great lesson learned and quick...

    Great info. Thanks. I have 1.5 gallons of air space and am blowing through the airlock. I figure out a blow off valve for the next batch.

    I used an abbey ale liquid pack for a 5 gallon batch. Not certain how much yeast was in it as I don't have the bottle anymore. Thanks for the advice on the transfer, I will let it ride longer. Not in a rush' just want a decent turn out. Any advice on the secondary yeast pitch 3 days before...

    First time all grain

    Did my very first home brew ever and jumped right into to whole grain. I did a St Bernadus Abbey Ale clone recipe. A little background: I used a cooler mash tun, 10 gallon brew pot, bayou classic gas burner, wort chiller, and primary fermentation bucket. I maintained a 150.4 mash for 90...
