    Any good reading on yeast science? I have questions

    Taste is ok, won't be using this recipie often for other reasons. Biggest pain about Fleishmans is the low floccuation. I lose about an ounce or two each bottle trying to avoid the dregs. Very carbonated, but could be the recipie too. Worst case scenario: its better than dumping a batch...

    Advice on kit/yeast

    This may sound like a dumb question but can you use brewer's yeast from the health food store? On impulse I bought a tin because last batch I started brewing after my LHBS was closed but before I realized they forgot to include the yeast in my ingredients... I used Fleischman's for that one...

    Hello from the East Bay!

    Thanks. Bottled my first and brewed my second last Friday... Been sneaking bottles from the first batch already so that I could actually RDWHAHB, already has a nice head and each day it gets better. It will be fun to track its progress.

    Glad you mentioned the Fleischmann's... My supplier forgot the yeast when she put my ingrediants together and they closed before I started the boil... Let's see how it goes!

    End of the world 5-21-2011?

    I just got here. So did my beer. At least I get a few houra heads up and five gallons in primary at a decent enough % to be drunk on the lawn in a nuclear dawn when my senses finally blur.

    possible stuck fermentation

    So I'm still a complete noob on my first batch in fermentation but I'm trying to take all the advice on patience and relaxation to heart. That being said- after heavy activity in the airlork the first few days in a highish temp brew closer (78* F- not much control over it or any other option) i...

    Never dump your beer!!! Patience IS a virtue!!! Time heals all things, even beer!

    How am I supposed to RDWHAHB when my first batch is still in the fermenter??? Love the acronymn, though. It's now going to work itself into my regular vocabulary. I really am a n00b

    Never dump your beer!!! Patience IS a virtue!!! Time heals all things, even beer!

    I like to think my pallate is adventerous, but some might call it unrefined. I know what I like, but I can't necesarily tell you why, and i often appreciate the experience of the flavor just as much as the flavor itself. That said, I'm very encouraged that rhe only way to f up a beer seems...
