Monk, The guys at Stienfillers said the same thing aeration problem. And I must have gotten some contaminants in there as well. Oh well, live and learn. I will be doing another in a couple weeks.

:mad: I am not sure what happened but... I brewed a Hefeweizen on the 4th of June. Everything went fine. I let it sit in the primary for 6 days. Then racked to secondary. I check the gravity a found it had it had only gone from 1.048 to1.026. I repitched some dry yeast and nothing after a week...

Cheese good looking kid! ;) It's been a long time since mine was that little.

I checked the airlock and pushed in a little bit further and the bubbles started up again. Thanks ChillHayze for the advice.

I didn't keep the entire recipe. But it had 1 lb of grain 6lbs. of LME and I added about 1/4 lb of Candy sugar.

I brewed a Hefewweizen on the 4th of June, racked to secondary on the 10th of june and at that point took a reading. It went from 1.050 to 1.026 I thought it was done until I saw that. I pitched dry yeast again and still have no airlock bubbles. Will it finish out with out any airlock bubbles...

I have a business trip to Utah next week and won't get in till late Friday. Let's all keep in touch and see if we can do it in the upcoming weeks.

will do Brewsmith. I may go over this Sunday. I am bottling my Kolsch tonight and need to get something in the Primary.

There are some threads about it, the easiest way is to soak the bottles in ammonia and water. They will slide rightoff. I leave mine overnight.

That's what I do. I just wrap with bubble wrap and ship away. No harm no foul! :mug:

http://www.brewsupply.com/ this is the one in Culver City. I haven't been there but it may be worth a try.

I go to Stienfillers too. From OC not far at all. They have great supplies and are very helpful.

I'm in the same boat. Did two batches on the same tank. I read somewhere on here that most everyone gets 4 batches from a full tank.

Monster Mash that is quite a set up . Very impressive.

:off: sort of.... When you use DME do you boil it like you do with Corn Sugar?
