    Winter Basement Brewery

    East Coast Yeast

    I am looking to pick up ECY01 BugFarm, ECY20 Bug County, and ECY03 Farmhouse Brett. I am willing to trade a bottle of Odell's sour beer and a bottle of one of my funked saisons (a damn fine beer). Any east coasters want to make a trade??

    Bacillus subtilis??

    I regularly eat natto which is fermented with Bacillus subtilis. The soybeans in natto have a sourish taste, so my brain started over-thinking.:cross: Has anyone tried fermenting beer with Bacillus subtilis?? :cross:

    Preparing A Used Wine Barrel

    I am going to be buying a used 55 gallon wine barrel for a solera project. I understand that I need to fill the barrel with water to saturate the wood so it doesn't leak. Do I need to soak it with any chemicals (soda ash, sodium metabisulfite etc.) before I fill it with ten gallons of year old...

    Prebuilt Control Panels?

    Greetings, After lurking in the Electric Brewing Forum, I've discovered that there is no way I would build a control panel that I would feel safe using. I have degrees in archaeology/special education not electrical engineering. Because it's so cold here in Wyoming, I am itching to start up...

    Kegging my wild brews

    I have a quick question for you folks: I have 15 gallons of berliner weiss that I am guessing is about a month away from being able to be consumed. I am wondering if any of you guys keg your wild beers using your regular draft system. I currently use 1/6th barrel sanke kegs and don't have...

    Building a brewery in my basement

    Greetings, Due to the harsh winters here in Wyoming, I am contemplating building a brewery in my basement. Currently it is unfinished, so it is kind of a blank slate. I don't know if I should be using either my existing natural gas or switching over to an electric setup. I am curious if there...

    Restaurants for those going to GABF.

    Being a semi-regular to the Denver area, I have compiled a list of some yummy restaurants for those heading to this year's GABF. My personal favorite is Osteria Marco. It's pretty rustic Italian food. They make great homemade ricotta and mozzarella, suckling pig roast on Sundays, grilled...

    House Yeast Compliment to Pacman

    I currently use Pacman (Wyeast 1764) as my house yeast. I love it because it ferments cool (60F), eats through fermentables thoroughly (so I can use more specialty grains) and flocculates really well. I also use London III (Wyeast 1318) to a varying degree of success. I like to watch the top...

    Quick Disconnect, Shirron and Brewpot Question...

    I've searched/read the various Quick Disconnect threads, visited my local Fastenal store and another hardware store and I still can't find which quick disconnects I need. Neither my local Fastenal nor my local hardware store have the parts for me to look at, so I've decided to order via Mcmaster...
