I'm in! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Lid was on tight as a tick. No signs of fermentation in the fermenter. I repitched and will wait to see what happen. Took gravity reading and it's a bit lower that Og.( 1.052-1.049) And as sweet as what went in fermenter

Brewed 10 gallons a blonde ale all grain on Monday. Placed into 2-5 gallon buckets. Pitched 1 packet of Nottingham ale yeast in each bucket. Bucket one has active fermentation bubbling air lick, krausen etc, bucket 2 nothing. Both dry yeast packets have same date. I'm going to pitch another...

I have patched up the chiller and will give It another shot.

Ok. Just finished my brew day and was chilling the wort. Turned my back for 5 mins or so and to my surprise. My 11 gallons of wort became 13. My chiller developed a hole. Ugh! Suggestion. I'm thinking bout boiling off the water. It's American wheat with ibu of 35. Thoughts?

I'll take one too

Liked!

Check out Heartland brewery, food is great and the Farmer Johns oatmeal stout is awesome!!

Thx for the reply! What sites are out their for trading beer? I did a google search and came back with like 20 hits on beer advocate. Does a sub forum exist on HBT?

I have never traded beer before! I want to trade some hop , terrapin or dog fish head for some pliney the elder. I don't know where to begin or how to know the people on the other end are trustworthy. Any one trade before? Some insight on we're to begin I'm in NNorth Carolina

Ugh just 3! Well my two cents goes as follows! 1. Hopslam 2. Bells 90 3. Stone IPA Never had pliney! Would love to try it have some hopslam and willing to trade!

I only had one on hand because I was going to change them on all of my buckets. Forgot I had purchased them until I pushed this one on my bucket.

Partigyle today! First running was a RIS second running was a smoked Texas brown ale with molasses and brown sugar. Long day but had fun and worth the time.

Thx kh for the reply! I assumed it would be okay but i could not stop myself from questioning my judgement. The brown is bubbling away and I really don't want to risk an infection.
