Agreed! I hadn't brewed with this strain before and it's incredible how yeast treatment alters the flavor profile. The first time I brewed it there was a freak warm spell and it got into the mid...

I prefer ball locks because it's easier to remove the posts. I managed to mangle the pins on a couple of stubborn posts even with a notched socket.

Not related to your point, I know, but isn't there an increased chance of destroying your carboys and injuring yourself due to thermal shock by doing this?

My local public radio station broadcasts Car Talk and Wait Wait Don't Tell Me after the news when I typically brew on Saturday mornings. Otherwise Kink Aardschok.

The acid blend helped considerably. In the end I added about a teaspoon to the 3.5 gallons of mead. I finally bottled it today. It's still a little hot, but I'm looking forward to seeing how it...

Maybe they got some stock mixed up. I get the impression they move a lot of kegs. I bet if you let them know, they'll hook you up with a discount on your next order. They're cool like that.

The pot capacity isn't listed explicitly, but it looks like the typical 30qt aluminum pot. I've got a very similar kit and it works great. It's a bit tight for 5 gallon batches, but I watch very...

It's somewhere between the two worts, but it's weighted toward the larger volume (heavily weighted toward your batch SG), so the impact is relatively small. Since you didn't measure the batch SG,...

I don't think it's so much about "food grade" as it is about the wall thickness. For example, the 3/16" I.D. beer line at kegconnection is 7/16" O.D. I couldn't find any 3/16" I.D. on the Home...

That ratio of wheat may be tricky to lauter, especially since this is your first AG batch and you're not familiar with your system and your process.

Sounds yummy though!
