Yesterday, cold-crashed the IPA and dropped 2 oz. of Mosaic and 2oz. of Citra Cryo into it.

Good suggestions, thank you!

This is where I am headed. As the AIO is on a table with the HLT and BK, I will have to stand on a step ladder to lift the bag out of it. Now, I need some form of armature/hoist so it can hang and drip. I wonder where the studs are in the garage ceiling?

Stopped at the LHBS to pick up a replacement SCOBY, some S-05 and some LDME.

Buy high and sell low. Wait....

It’s a double screen, and I normally double crush. Pretty small gap, credit card thick? With a Wilser Bag, I squeeze the poopies out of it and still get clear wort. With the malt pipe, no squeeze, and stuck mash. I am leaning toward either: 1. Single crush grain, and add more to cover the...

I’ve never had a stuck mash in 6 years of constant brewing until I started using the malt pipe. But I will try out a batch and see what happens. Thank you!

I have found that having a solid quote from an outside service does wonders for the family’s gratitude. “A new one would have cost $1000!!!! Thank you for fixing that that.”

This seems like my most likely solution. I am going to have to find a method for hanging the bag. May just have to build something….

Looking good for just a couple days on gas. Tastes like pine and grapefruit. HB PA 3.25%.

Sniffed the airlock of Murphy’s DIPA, and despite all of the errors, it’s smelling amazing!

Wife and I got an afternoon. Campsite Brewery in Covina, CA. Hoppy Pilsner, Boysenberry Kettle Sour, later WCIPA. Pretty good.

So, apparently I am making Murphy’s DIPA. When I got home from work, the mash was stuck. The wort that went into the BK was so cloudy, it clogged the filter, post-boil. Since I couldn’t use the plate chiller, I ended up pouring the wort from the BK into the fermenter, which would normally be...

i am just finishing my second time using my Robobrew as my mash tun and it’s also the second time I have a stuck mash. I do not have this problem with my @wilserbrewer bags. In fact I transferred my mash out of the pipe and into the bag in my HLT, which now requires extensive cleaning. Is...

Changed the gaskets on a keg and then close-transferred the 3.25ABV PA into it. Mashed in a DIPA that I will finish tomorrow afternoon and drop on the PA’s yeast cake.

Samples to check FG. Very nice.

I checked for a clog, but found nothing, so I am going to take the keg apart completely before I fill it. I know something isn't right, as when I opened the fermenter to dry hop, it pushed out a ton of CO2. Standard bubbler as an escape hatch now, will just use tank CO2 to purge keg before...

I use Irish whiskey-soaked Applewood chips for smoking grain when I do a smoked beer. I don't normally soak my wood chips in anything other than water for bbq, but now I am intrigued.

Hose from top of fermenter to keg in, keg out hose to growler of starsan. Previous times I have done this, the starsan foams like crazy. This time, pressure is building in the keg, slightly. It wasn't bubbling fast, anyway, so it may just be the potential ABV of 3.25%, or the fresh pack of...
