Which should i do if i am looking to turn the pump on and off with the switch on the box,and have the extra port on that box be "hot" for plugging in other things?

Haha this is all still over my head but i believe with that diagram i could find what i need! Im a college student so you would think im smart enough to figure it out : / but i think ill get it! I was hoping to find someone with an inventory list of what they made theirs of but i think you two...

Hey guys! I am sorry if any of you think this is a repost but after a few days of research and failed discussion with homedepot employees i am reaching out to you guys. I have essentially the same set up as this video And i want to wire up the exact same switch box, but i have no flipping...

Not paranoia, ive brewed enough batches to know the difference between aeration bubbles and oxyclean bubbles. I know some got in i just dont know how much, and what health issues that might cause. Hoping for the best, didnt really taste anything but thats likely because i got 88% efficiency...

This is a pick of the bubbles just now taken, so they are still there about an hour past chilling. Yeast starter has not been pitched because its around 70f

Its a mixture of bubbles to be honest, i believe most of it was caused by oxyclean, i tried a sample with the gravity reading and it didnt necessarily taste off.

I brewed today for the first time in a while, about a month ago i decided to clean up my gear and soaked my therminator in a bucket with oxyclean. I then soaked it in one with water and then would pick it out drain it and did that a few times. I never got around to pumping water through it or...

Ya i know there is co2 present, it was the fact that i poured off 3 testers on 3 different days and all of which had atleast a 1 inch layer of foam on top, which is surprising to me lol. Though its the first time i havnt "turkey basted" some out for a sample.

Did some calculations that i think are correct and my est FG should be like 1.029! So im currently at 1.032, i assumed that BS would correct for it so i followed it. And since my fermentation temp dropped so low i assumed it was a stuck fermentation.

like i said BS says 1.012 but i believe it must have added lactose to the mash. . as in not calculating it towards the FG im not sure though, not at my comp so i cant check.

I think my beersmith added the lactose to the mash, so it didnt account for it being post fermentation.

Its a widmer snow plow clone lol, i just followed the BYO for it! What should i do?!

16oz lactose, FG was supposed to be 1.012 according to beersmith. It is possible i missed fermentation, was basing it not being done on beer smith. Unless it mis calc'd it

Have another thread currently posted about the same beer it is a milk stout thats been in a conical (first time using it) for almost 2 weeks. Temp dropped to 57 degrees, got a brew belt on it but there is still no sign of activity even after warming up and trying to rouse the yeast. Took a...

That is an innovative idea Clem, i would have gone to that but luckily a friend of mine wasnt using his brewbelt : ) just tossed it on about 45 mins ago and its already up to 62, hopefully it levels out around 68-70 at the most! Then im going to shake that bad boy to rouse up the yeasties

Crap i have no way of warming it up. . . Guess i may have to go look for a brewbelt : (

Used my comical for the first time a little over a week ago. 7.4 gal and Put in about 5.75 gal. Pitched a starter of 2nd gen white labs dry English ale, barely in airlock activity (I knew there wouldn't be because of head space left) pitched at about 68 degrees and it's now been about 8 days. It...

No stir plate, i just am not used to seeing no airlock activity after 12 hours. Its weird, with starters of course.

Clem is your name based off of the california clemintine brew day from northern brewer with chip? lol

Im just not sure if the yeast was viable, because it was a 24 hour starter so i didnt see any krausen or anything. Just weird not being able to see the fermentation because its steel!
