    Dissolved Oxygen Experiment- Interesting Finds with Beer Transfer Method

    Apologies for resurrecting an old but quite 'energetic' discussion, could I ask @Bilsch to help clarify if my method if using the MW600 would be correct? My intent is exactly as you describe - to measure DO in my wort after it's been brought to pitching temps but before oxygenation via a carb...

    Dry Hop Explosion due to cold temps? (PICS)

    You know what... Now that you mention it, that second fermenter was actually reading a bit higher on the gauge when it was fermenting under pressure. I wrote it off as possibly the oil gauge needing to be vented and recalibrated but you could be completely right that it actually experienced a...

    Dry Hop Explosion due to cold temps? (PICS)

    I brewed a 1BBL IPA and split it into 2x 15 gallon fermenters. I fermented both for 3 days with a blow off cane before capping them off with a PRV and finishing under pressure. Total ferment for both (using US-05) was 8 days at 68F and then raised to 71F for an additional 2 days On day 11, I...

    SS Brewtech Pure Flow Valve

    we're probably having similar experiences. fine tuning the riptide pump flows just isn't as easy as it should be. sometimes the difference between too much or too little is the tiniest ball hair of a turn! (lol sorry, sticking to the theme i guess... balls.)

    SS Brewtech Pure Flow Valve

    I'm still considering... the Blichmann LFV valves on my Riptides are just a little too much of a ball ache to match during sparging... i'd love to see if these valves are a lot easier to match and fine tune the flows...

    Florida Ingredient Order trapped in Doral, FL

    I shipped ingredients from Morebeer to a freight forwarder in Doral. My intent was to ship them international but it isn't an option right now due to the covid situation. So I'm looking to sell them to someone local that can go pick them up, instead of paying crazy money for shipping costs.

    Florida Ingredient Order trapped in Doral, FL

    I'm hoping someone in the Miami / Doral area can help me out with this situation I've found myself in. I have a grain order with a shipping company in Doral that I intended on sending to a remote location where I make small batches. But due to the current situation, shipping in and out of the...

    COVID Pause in my Fermenters! Too long?

    luckily i was able to get them both sealed up and under about 10psi co2. Still, they're sitting around 60-64F - so not quite chill, but i agree - it could be worse. and yes, thankfully I was able to get help dumping the yeast. Couldn't cold crash first, so im guessing there's still more to be...

    COVID Pause in my Fermenters! Too long?

    So I have two batches of beer that I had to leave and won't be able to get to for who knows how long... might be 2+ months? One is a Porter entering it's 4th week of primary fermentation while the other is an APA that was moved to a brite tank with 2nd addition dry hops... I have them...

    Gelatin finings - would it cause an issue if left in for a week?

    Thanks everyone, I feel better about it. I scale up to 1BBL so that's exactly why I worry as it ends up being about half a gallon of liquid with my gelatin. I feared it'd shock and kill too much yeast in that qty, on top of any other unknown negative effects

    Gelatin finings - would it cause an issue if left in for a week?

    Older thread bump but given i'm about to leave my gelatin doing it's thing for 2 weeks, due to a vacation, I'll chime back in with the results of this longer window of fine time! Anyone see a concern with this extended time? Also anyone that does this process, do you chill your 160 degree...

    ***NEW PRODUCT*** The Yeast Brink from Nor Cal Brewing Solutions

    awesome, thanks Jaybird. And to confirm, the 3" sight glass you refer to is a 3" TC connection and requires an adapter for use on 2" or 1.5"? can you clarify the internal fl oz measurement between each sight glass option?
