    Sulfur smell

    I know I'm rehashing an old thread here, but something interesting for anyone else who comes across this thread having the same results. I am also using a white labs hefe yeast, WLP351 to be exact. I have been getting a lot of sulfur smell from my fermenter and when I took a gravity reading...

    Honey additon.

    I was going to add 1lb of honey to a porter recipe. If you add honey after fermentation has slowed how do you get the ABV of your beer?
