Noobie (to this fermenter) question: about how much beer do you guys think is in the fermenter pictured in this post? (post #40, if the picture doesn't come through in the quote.) Is this 60 liters? or is 60 liters the full flood capacity of the tank? (in which case this would seem to be...

I like to bottle all-Brett beers at 2 weeks but then let them condition at room temp for about 4-6 weeks. This means they really take no longer than a lager. They are plenty "farmhouse" by then if not as funky as Brett/Sacch beers which btw I do by splitting the batch into a Brett batch and...

OK, so here was the plan, based on a bunch of reading, primarily this forum, Northern brewer, Michael Tonsmeire, and Chad Yakobson or people reporting on things Chad has said or written, such that I can't pinpoint the genesis of the idea, not that it is a particularly new one. Basically, not...

I'm feeling pretty cool because I just found this beer Friday, bought my first bombers Saturday, and had already planned a knock-off; thought I'd run a search on hbt, find this thread, the recipe in my head turns out to be about 95% of what OldSocks recommends...and coming to the same...

oh yeah, just didn't know how much to use. the tastybrew calculator spit out (I think) 6.4 oz of sucrose for my desired 2.8 volumes of a Belgian pale ale (well, really an APA fermented with WL 550) that fermented @ about 74...and about 7.4 oz of honey, 7.6 of maple syrup. 7.1 of molasses (may...

resurrecting an old thread: I cultured the dregs from a bottle of Petrus back in November, with about a quart of starter wort at 1.025 -1.030, drained off the "beer" and stepped it up with about another quart and a half of starter wort of the same strength (after about a month IIRC), then stuck...

Thanks all, esp Lonnie, and no, Humann Brewing I did not expect a reply from the man himself. That Mash Tun from Stout Tanks is 28.7 in tall if I read their drawing right, and I'm a short-legged 5-11. I might shorten the height of the Brutus a little so I don't have to stand on a step ladder...

actually 2 questions--just ordered brutus 10 plans from BYO, does Lonnie get some money off this? Sure hope so... 2d Question--what diameter mash tun, HLT, BK is brutus 10 designed for? Asking because I'm looking at all of these things from Stout Tanks -- http://conical-fermenter.com/ --and...
