    Enough Yeast

    I am not sure if I will have enough yeast for a 1.075 brew. I made a 1500ml starter with 150g of DME using wyeast from 04/09/12. I chilled, decanted and then I stepped up this starter to 2000ml with 180g of DME. I used a stir plate for both of these and unfortunatley during the stepup...

    Keg too full?

    First Batch Question

    I am a week into fermenation with a honey brown ale. The krausen has fallen and the outside fermometer is now reading between 58*-60*. I used wyeast 1056 and I know this the lower range for the yeast to be active at. So what I'm trying to ask is should I move my primary to a warmer spot or will...
