    Flat stout

    So I've had a milk stout I recently kegged on gas at 20psi for well over 24 hours. I just drew a bit to taste and it's flat as a pancake. Check the regulator on CO2 and it's still in the green. Do stouts take longer to carbonate?

    To Secondary or Not

    Currently fermenting a milk stout in a conical fermenter. My question is, once primary fermentation is complete, is there an advantage to rack to a secondary or just age in the keg?

    Milk stout PSI

    I'm fermenting a Left Hand Milk Stout clone and once I transfer it to the keg, I'm not certain what psi it should be at for carbonation. I don't have a nitrogen setup, just straight CO2

    Stirred wort after pitch

    I lost my mind and stirred the F out of my wort after pitching in the yeast. I've read that's a no no as the yeast get pissed. Did I just screw up this batch?

    To crush or not to crush

    I'm brewing up a Left Hand Milk Stout clone tomorrow and had a question about the adjuncts. It calls for flaked barley and flaked oats......do I add them whole to the mash or do I crush them in my mill along with the grains?

    Keg carb method

    I just threw my 5gal of IPA on the gas yesterday 37 degrees at 20psi. When I decide to back off the psi to serving pressure, do I just dial it down and start serving or do I need to purge the keg, then dial up to serving pressure?

    Chlorinated pool water through chiller

    So I have this Chill Wizard which is basically a plate chiller on steroids. Works very well. Living here in AZ my hose water (which I'd run through the plate chiller is 67 degrees.). My pool water is currently 50.2 degrees. If I ran the pool water through the plate chiller, does anyone see any...

    Chill Wizard Chiller

    So I picked up this Chill Wizard contraption for rapidly chilling my wort for literally a steal. I havent had a chance to use it yet but plan to this weekend. Other than looking pretty bad ass, I'm wondering if anyone has used one of these things and if so what were your results.

    Safale-05 packets

    Brewing up a 5 gal batch of blood orange pale ale next weekend. Was wondering if pitching 1 packet of dry Safale-05 is enough or would 2 packets be best?
