I did a lot wrong with my brown ale and I wondered if anyone has had any experience with wlp007 at a high than normal fermentation temp. First, I commenced cooling and proceeded to drop a piece of rubber off of a clamp I use above my kettle into the cool wort. Then I continued to...

Thanks a lot. I will check that out. I can fix the image once i get back to my work computer (not on work time)

Hopefully bigger text

I am going to attempt to post my electrical schematic. I am definitely no electrician, just pulled ideas and schematic from theelectricbrewery. If the image turns up readable, I would appreciate feedback as to whether or not I'm on the right track or what is wrong. I plan on using a cord with...

How about a 1.5 liter starter on a stir plate for a 10.5 gallon batch of 1.052 gravity wort? I am putting two vials of white labs london ale into the starter. It is a robust porter. The package date is 9/27/13. Does this raise any flags for you guys on the forum? I am a bit concerned about...

I just wanted to get some opinions on reusing the yeast I harvested from my porter. Deal is that I dumped it from the bottom of the conical into a a sterilized mason jar on the 11th day after I brewed. Normally I would brew again on Sunday which would be the 14th day after I brewed the porter...

I am planning on using it for 3 or 4 generations depending on how things go. I guess i can just harvest a little later next generation to offset this harvest? Thanks for the reply

I am using my conical for the first time to ferment a 10 gallon batch. I also have morebeer's yeast harvester. After 3 days of fermentation, I dumped a half gallon of trub. Then I attached my yeast harvester and it immediately filled up with yeasty material. Do you guys think that I didn't...

I just put my stout in the secondary fermenter and then noticed that theres a tiny crack on the bottom corner that I can't even feel with my fingernail. I moved it to my fermenting closet without killing myself. Im planning on kegging it in a couple days. Will it... a. burst all the...

my burners are still in the mail, so hopefully a week or two. I will post more pictures once i get everything on it.

After months of stagnation Im finally starting to see some progress.

thanks

Which gaskets are best to get for the proflowdynamics quick disconnects? They have some in their store but I don't know if they're high temperature. If not, where can you get the high temperature ones? http://store.proflowdynamics.com/modules/store/-Couplings-for-Homebrewers-_C12074.cfm

If the stems in the way and you dont have a good hole to pivot around, then it could be a problem. If not then Id say go for it. When the stems out its a perfect 2" i.d. Did you try hitting it with a hammer and punch?

I really like those ears that hold the old lid on.

Good ideas. I may rummage through the grocery store some more to try to find something. This stainless sheet stock looks nice though. Does anybody know what that PVC backing is that they sell on some of it? Im under the impression that its just to protect it during shipping and you peel it...

The stand is real nice, Im making it out of all stainless and it is looking nice, I dont want to slap anything on it thats not stainless on it after paying rediculous money for it. 16 ga. would sound better actually. My stand is angle that the keg sits down into. I think I could come off the...

to do this to the keg, it took approximately 4-6 hours if you have the right tools, if you dont have the right tools, I think it will take about 4-6 decades. I used an angle grinder with gator grit backing pad, buffing pad, and 2 and 5 compound like I have heard. Heres what I started with...

Just before ordering steel to construct this design for a burner wind shield, I came up with an idea that seems dumb but I think it might work. Instead of buying a sheet of 12 ga. stainless which would be kinda costly, what about using a dog bowl. The dog bowl is also stainless but is a little...
