Hi. Just got my fermzilla. How are you guys purging the collection jar? Mine just came with the two black plastic caps and the pressure kit is on backorder everywhere. Was the pressure kit available previously? I was under the impression it hasn't even been released yet.

I used Thai Sweet Rice, 8 cups dry rice to 12 cups water and 4 yeast balls.

Mine smells like nail polish remover. Is this normal? 7 Days in.. Sent from my HTCONE using Home Brew mobile app

I live in Phoenix and have had great success with the water bath method. cost was $5 (got the tub with rope handles from walmart) and i easily keep my fermentation temps 60-66 degress with amazing control just by dropping in 1-2 frozen 2 liter bottles. once a day.

I would switch it to : 3 weeks in primary 1-2 weeks in secondary (and maybe switch the biscuit malt with munich...)

Yes the rice cooled and I powdered the yeast ball with a hammer. Still nothing this morning

I need help please I made a small batch 5 days ago and still have no change in the jar. Zero liquid. Yeast still dry. I used 2 cups sushi rice and 2 yeast balls.

Gotta love predictive text/keyboards :ban:

I think that is too much yeast for that size starter and would stress out the yeast. I would recommend simply re hydrating 1 pack of S-05 in water instead.

Yikes

30 - 10 = 20 x 131= 2620 so it's 2.62% ABV

I think you should taste it then decide

Long story short they want you to buy another beer kit so they rush you
