transfer it to a carboy ... tub.. ice... water... repeat ice... yes for weeks... every morning for 4.5 weeks on my last one.. came out absolute aces... easier to maintain a pretty constant temp than you think.

Ok.. so i pitch 05 and it starts activity quickly... steadily over the next day or so then bam.. i come home from work and theres 3 feet of foam on the flr(welcome back burton?).. this has been the craziest ferm ive ever seen..

Yea, using hydrometer.. gravity still 1.059 so i pitched 05.. wort still smells great😂

Ima ck the gravity one more time before pitching 05

Thx guys, i guess it is what it is

Aerated n pitched at 67f.. totally baffled, i have 05, gonna hydrate n pitch it

Here's the pickle. Traditional tim taylorish burton ale, white labs burton yeast , 5gal, 800ml starter, og target was 1.052 but missed badly at 58/59.. no activity about to hit 88 hrs, no grav movement at all, no access to more of that yeast, what can i pitch n a pinch with a burton water...

Cosmo's Cosmic Stout

Session IPA... excellent little brew.. very pleased witht his one... 4.8 ABV

Friz Killer Witbier - uses unmalted wheat, oats, pils, hallertau

keeps getting requested for mantrip. basic wheat... use all unmalted wheat and 2lb of oats per 10 gal.

Amazing beer I personally thought was shafted by merely placing... this was coconut silk in a glass... scored 39's. lover the two-shaded head on this beer.

Awesome Cherry Wheat beer.. uses .5 lb of cherries per gallon... use fresh tart and pasteurized sweet cherries...

it'll be the third yr that I've provided the mantrip homebrews. They're getting better each year. Brewed 10 batches over the last 3 months, 6 were deemed 'worthy'.

took the goblet in the front yard and took a pic with my iphone...
