    Foam... SO MUCH Foam....

    I had the same problem not long ago. I tried everything differnt size lines, decrease psi, and even bought longer lines. None of those things worked. It turns out it was just the keg. I finished the keg by letting pitchers settle the foam and just drank it that way. When it was all said and...

    Foam from Keg

    I did purge it several times and then hooked up to 10psi. So if it's over carbed it will bleed of over time? Do I need to disconnect the Co2 for a couple days?

    Whoops! Bought Lager recipe but can't lager...

    You could try and wait a month and let it cool down a few degrees. Not sure what your temp control would be to keep it warm through winter weather?

    California Common "Steamin Ale"

    It is a lager brewed at ale temps....Steamin ale. Im not sure exactly what the lager taste is supposed to be just that i brewed at the higher end of the yeast temps and it was good. I would recomend it as it was my first all grain very easy and very tasty

    First Lager

    Maybe im a little confused by the decoction....I was going to do the decoction after my sach rest of 60min to bring it up to 169 to mash out temps. as Kai suggested

    Belgian Wit - First time questions

    Im not that experinced but looks to me like you didn't use enough water. You mashed with 4g and sparged with 2g. After grain absorbtion you would only have like 3g of wort...now my inexperince here but isn't first runnings higher because you get more sugar less water? 2nd that is a huge grain...

    First Lager

    Well perhaps i could spare $7, which would you suggest the straight german or the actual Oktober strain?

    First Lager

    I thought about the liquid yeast but did some reading and they say its the same strain. So my thought is that once i do the starter it will be liquid yeast strain before i pitch it, right?

    First Lager

    That would work to......how would i do the decoc from there?

    First Lager

    Well I will be brewing up my Oktoberfest AG kit from Northernbrewer next week and i just want to double check my process. First i will be making a 2L starter 3 days out, fridge overnight and decant pitch. Second I plan on doing a decoction to get real malty flavor (from what i've read) so...

    Why decant a bigger yeast starter?

    Man i just made a starter used 1lb of wheat DME for about 3 days bottled used the yeast. 2 weeks later i drank the 4 bottles i got....tasted okay (not my best brew) and there was still enough yeast/sugars to carb them.

    Effects of stuck mash
