    2nd batch Experiment during fermentation

    I'm the guy that comments on his own post.. LOL I'll boil to the Protein Break and then say another 5 min (just for fun.) Still interested in comments... Even if they are all just, "What a colossal waste of time!" :)

    2nd batch Experiment during fermentation

    Trying something new. I've got a Red Ale that is nearly done in fermentation. I call it Red inBed V2. Too hoppy (38 IBU) based on Red in Bed V1 So... I'm going to add this second batch to the fermenter today. 1gallon water total (it'll boil off some, yes) Grain bill 1 lb 2 row 2 oz smoked...

    Blow-off tube vs. appropriately sized fermenter

    Probably best not to do this... We have lab type equipment.. I forget most do not have this type of setup. Must be a closed clean system to do this cleanly. Never mind... Blow it off and throw it out. you'll only blow off about a beer or two.

    Spike with.... Anybody?

    Sorry 1g is 1 gram. My scale is fine enough so that this works for me.. Just scale it up to the accuracy of your scale 30grams is roughly a shot glass add 1 gram of rum is roughly 5 drops The math is: (abv)A*(amount)A + (abv)B*(amount)B = (abv)mixture*(amount)mixture So an example might be a...

    Blow-off tube vs. appropriately sized fermenter

    After we had a blow up in the Fermentation laboratory (AKA Bathroom) we have used a blow off and aux containment vessel on everything. And with proper cleanliness just pour it back in when it is done. nearly zero loss. Good engineers minimize loss ;)

    Do you prefer brewing existing recipes or building your own?

    We have been brewing for almost 2 years now and we tend to take a collection of recipes in a style and compare them to one another as a starting point... and then tweak it to be our own... Same with most cooking recipes too.. Its just the way I roll ;)
