    gas burner in garage ok?

    You will be fine. I brew in a small room in my house and use up to four burners at the same time. I normally just open up a few windows and that's it. But you should invest in a good CO detector.

    First Time Lager...er

    The temperature is definitely too high. I brew a lot of lagers and I never go above 52°F for primary fermentation and then lager around 35-36°F for several weeks, depending on the beer style.

    Brewery - dairy equipment - book

    Thanks for all the useful tips. I will for sure try to get in contact with some of the breweries named. No, that was not it. But it also sounds quite interesting!! I think it was an older book from like the 90s or 80s and it had a blue and white cover.
