    Label Peelers Homebrew Store :(

    Has anyone ever bought anything from these guys? If so, did you ever receive it? I bought and paid for a pound of hops over four months ago, and they can't seem to tell me when they're going to get them ( Centennial 2015 ). Everyone else seems to have gotten theirs now they won't even answer...

    IPAs having alot of sludge into fermenter?

    I just made my first IPA and noticed that I got alot of hop sludge into the fermenter when transferring from BK; I don't use a pump, so I don't know the best way/technique for getting it over without the excess gunk? I did a hopstand, etc. and it turned out great, but theres a LOT of sediment...

    Vacuum Sealer

    Looking for a good vacuum sealer. I used my b-i-l s for a bit but it was junk and the vacuum didn't work that well, so I've decided to look for my own. If anyone has one that they're not using and would like to sell, just let me know! I'm getting ready to have A LOT of hops to freeze...

    enough yeast left in suspension?

    I've had my Oktoberfest sitting at 37 degrees now for about three weeks. Thats after 10 days of primary fermentation at 60, ramped it up to 70 for a couple of days then dropped to where it is now...

    timeframe?

    just to satisfy my own curiosity, how long (on average) should it take from burr stage to full hop? Right now the burrs are about the size of a pea.It's my first year growing hops, so I have nothing to guage its growth on. Think I might have something by September? as always, :mug:

    How do these look?

    These plants are one month and a day today and since I'm new at growing hops, can I get some input on them? They seem kinda "spindly" to me esp. the Cascade.
