Thanks, I cant cold crash tho. Any other suggestions/input about hop bag vs no bag??

Thanks so far all. I've actually tried the hop bag over racking cane method. It seems to create a lot of bubbling in the hose while transfering to bottle bucket...Is that bad?? Also, will I get better aroma if I let the hops sit in the secondary for 2 weeks or just 1 week?? (conditioning...

Hey all! I was hoping someone could help answer a question I have. I am about to dry hop a pale ale that I brewed. I feel like using a hop bag , when I dry hopped pellets with out in the past, it was hard to keep out of the beer when transfering to bottling bucket. Should I boil or...

Add the priming solution to a bottling bucket. This way you can rack the beer off the trub in the primary and bottle from a clean bucket with a spout.

Awesome, I am glad I am crazy now I dont have to return it and can use it today. Thanks for the detailed answer!!

Does it actually coat the entire inside of the bottle? It looks like it just sprays straight up then drops back down. Or, am I just crazy?

Oh! Did a search in some other sections and found some useful info! Looks like if it is still clear it is A OK.

So I am trying to stretch my star san as far as possible. How long after mixed and used will it keep if covered. For instance, can I mix a 2 gallon batch for brew day equipment, pour left overs into my secondary (covered) until transfer, then transfer it from secondary to bottling bucket...

Ok i want in on this thread. Is there any sort of general formula to use to convert a full malt boil down to a water boil with late ME addition? SHould the hops be cut in half, down to a third? ETC. I konw it depends on what the OG is supposed to be but could we assume it was always...

Do you mind if I ask what you do with 10 gallons of beer per week?

I use this method and have realized that the wort does not cool very evenly at all. I was taking a temp of about 80 near the side of the pot but it was still near 130-140 in the center. It may help to stir every so often.

NO! Im ready for the game on Monday night though!!! Go Bucs!!!!!

I did thats why i dont know how it got sucked in.

Help, my airlock is leaking into the secondary. why is it now but not when it was on the primary? It leaked a sanitation solution into the beer first then i had to fill it with filtered tap water and some of that leaked too. Am i screwed?

to shake it up?? can you taste a difference if you do that.

calculators work great for just that reason! I have some 12oz'ers and some 22oz'ers. I may invest in some 32oz flip tops though.

Theres always one in a crowd huh. :cross:

It says how do you all? Long for yall. nice shot at being a smart ass, but better luck next time!! HAHA:D

Are you a fan of the good old 12oz curls or something else, and why? And I know some will say kegs but were talkin bottles here! See=>:tank:

Shake her up? wouldnt it exlpode once it was opened?:eek:
