    Brew day postponed!

    I made a big starter (actually two for a split batch) for a brew day about a month ago. Life interfered along with a rainshower and brew day was cancelled. So, the starters have been sitting in my beer fridge with foil on top of the Eylermyer flask for about a month now. Think I am safe in...

    Aging Yeast Starter

    So I grew up a yeast starter last week, but life got in the way and I wasn't able to brew. The starter has been sitting in my fridge with foil on top for the past week or so. If I can brew this weekend, I'm assuming I'm good to pitch?

    Hot Whirlpool

    I've seen several recipies that call for an extended 'Hot Whirlpool'. My question is, how hot is hot? I normally whirlpool for 10 mins or so before kicking on the chiller, but for an extended whirlpool, how high to I need to keep the temp? I'm guessing above 160 or so?

    I'm brewing 10g batches, splitting into 2 carboys for fermentation. I've been doing two starters (usually experimenting with different strains). Wondering if I wanted to do one large starter, how would it be best to split the starter in the fermenters?

    Groundwater temps in Texas are...well, warm. Since I moved up to 10g batches, my 30' immersion chiller (with recirc arm) is just not keeping up. Pumping city, followed by ice water takes me close to an hour to cool to 68. I either need to A) buy/build a bigger 50' imm chiller B) go...
