Well done! That space is plenty of room for you, we've got a 1300 square foot space for our nano and I'm still marveling at how much room there is. What's the fermentation plan? Cooperage? After...

I use the screen, and almost exclusively pellets and I can tell you it clogs rather easily. It seems like it's made more for mash tuns. I have a bazooka in my tun and it works great.

Same here, you put the mustard on top of the rub? I guess it makes sense, you want the rub to have full contact with the meat.

The recipe looks good, nice and basic. I absolutely agree with upping the mash temp. You're going to need a 5 gallon paint strainer bag, as far as I know that's the biggest they come in. Try to stir...

For hops I would experiment with Sorachi Ace in the aroma, if you can get it. Brooklyn uses this hop in their saison, and it's all lemon all the time. Might try that instead of the lemongrass.

Yeast nutrient shelf life?

Hey guys,

Got out of the mead game for a while there, but I'm looking to get back into it. I've got an old bottle of nutrient (prob 2 years old), think this is still ok for SNA?

I've made a mead (again, around 10%) with Wyeast 1056, which is essentially the same thing. I fermented at room temp, which pushed up the fruity esters from the beer yeast. Came out very nice.
