I like them. Howling wolf is my favorite!

will it come out? I wasn't a dark beer. SWMBO has her own place.

I did alot of research before I took this journey into all grain. Figured out temps, mash times, I even double batch sparged. Everything was perfect.. till the clean up. I had all of the wet grains in the cooler on the back porch and I didn't want to throw them in the yard because I'd probably...

make sure to boil water in it first

I wish I had that list Revvy when I started because, yeah, I was one of those guys that thought I messed up everything. The batch I'm drinking now I stuck my arm in the cooled wort to fish out thbe rubber stopper and it tastes great! Thanks for helping out us noobies

Sounds like it will still be good! Make sure to be sanitary!

thats true. I dont have the extra space for a big freezer, so that would be perfect for me. BTW I would prob only do one lager at a time anyway.

I think he's desperate and will take less for it.

Ok I think of bix box store as wal-mart or Sams. Zwolle can you let me know what store I almost bought the same thing today for $24 at home depot.

Temp is the way to go. I will do that. Should I make a starter or pitch the vial?

I had just bought the White Labs WLP 351. I heard somewhere that if you under pitch the yeast you will stress it out and release more phenols and make it tase better. Is that true and if you do how much do you underpitch? Half the starter? More or less?:confused:

I have heard that before that the phenols lighten up when reused or if pitched on the yeast cake. I don't know if its just in few cases or if this is regular. :confused:

Dont I need 20 post to start uploading pics on the site?

Yeah, I've allready got it figured out. 2 maybe 3 lobsters half cut potatoes cajun and seafood seasoning! YUMMM Then the next day, double IPA even better. I will put it to use. :mug:

Ok, just got my pot in.It's not as cheap and flimsy as I thought. Don't get me wrong, it's not heavy duty but I think it will last as long as I take care of it. It's more heavy duty than my 20 qt stainless, but I bought that for 7.99 at gordmans. For 7.99 you cant expect qualty. :mug:
