So I was cleaning a Better Bottle yesterdsy and I was rolling it on its side and it cracked!!! I could not believe my eyes I was not doing anything that I have not done before or on other Better Bottles!!

I am having big problems keeping my fermentation temps low. I can hold it steady at 78 and that's about as cold as I can get it. I know that very hot for this yeast and I'm curious about what the out come will be at this high of a temp. Has anyone else used this yeast at these temps? I'm...

I’m going to brew the A to Z Brown Ale out of Sam Calagione’s book Extreme Brewing. I have been reading up on the wyeast 1056 and White Labs 001 (California Ale) yeast and I like the sound of the both. Which one of the two strains would you all use if you had to choose? Thanks, FishH2o...
