Yeah its about 24 hours old now, i couldnt brew tonight like i planned (GF went out so i was at home with my son) So i plan to use it tomorrow :)

Awesome :) was afraid it was infection bubbles, like i've seen in so many images but if the pro's tell me its fine, its fine! Thanks guys :)

Hey guys, last night i made a yeast starter that i was gonna use tonight but i couldnt brew so it'll have to wait till tomorrow, but if you look at this image, is that normal ? Its wyeast 1318 i think, London Ale 3 (harvested) When i racked the beer to bottles that i originally used the...

How do i boil in plastic ? Simple, ill include some images. Food grade plastic barrel. (P.S these are not actually my images, but its the same system as i have)

Yes its a plastic barrel, 60L turned into a boiling pot. Been using one 30L for quite some time now along with thousands of others probably. (works fantastic, and is about 100% cheaper) My grains are about 9-10kg, i was trying to see this in beersmith but i dont really know how to configure it...

Hey guys, i just to this 60L boil pot (plastic) now, beersmith tells me i can only do about 30L batch from that, is that true ? I ditched my 30L pot to be able to use the 60L pot and end up with 2x20L batches, am i calculating this wrong ? How much water should i use for the mash ? (about...

My first AG i stuck a dirty copper worth chiller into the wort and boiled for 15mins, had oil on it and everything (i was stupid and didnt figure out it was dirty untill 5mins later) Beer turned out fantastic, was a german weissebier, and now i got a bit improved recipe of that beer fermenting...

Some people using the kind of setup i use have told me that these elements have a thin thread that expands when enough heat is formed and by expanding it shuts off the element after about 30sec-1min, so what i gotta do is open up the element (remove that black box on the outside of the pot) and...

These are old images i took while brewing my first all grain wheat beer, wich im drinking right now ;) love it! Anyways, the element on the right side is the one acting weird now

I live in iceland, we dont have that stuff here. Over here its do it yourself or gtfo :( Ill post pics tonight im about to bucket and pitch, then eat and open beer ;)

Hehe it isnt that simple :) I can use the other one and that is enough to keep up boil but that meens i have the wire midway in air across the room, so its hard to get around (thats why i used the other "main" one, it has a diffrent plug and shorter wire) but the pot i use is plastic fermenter...

I've used it before without issues, and the "click" i hear is coming from the element, its like the auto-off feature is kicking in (when you use a boil ketle the water reaches boil then switches off) could it be something like that ?

is an element from a boil ketle, 2200w (have 2 of them)

Hey guys i was about to reach hot break and then suddenly my element started to turn off regularly after about 1 minute and then once off, bout 10 sec later i hear a small "click" in the element and then it turns on again.... Anyone have any idea about whats going on ? I have 2 elements...

The bubbles dont tell you anything except that the bubbles are moving or not moving. Check gravity, thats the only way to know whats going on. (If you have reached FG, let it sit 2 days and check again, if its the same outcome then fermentation has stopped, let it sit and clear for atleast a...

I used starsan for the first time to sanitize my bottles and bottling bucket, and put my BetterBrew Northern Brown Ale (LME, No sugar) on bottles, my last KIT beer! Then i took a sample of my first AG wheat beer, it reached 1.010 after only 2 days fermenting, but it has been sitting now for a...

Yes thats the website i ordered from, to iceland took 2 weeks but im happy :)

Up till now i used chlorium something, it worked fine but the issue was i had to let it sit for atleast 2-3 mins then rinse it out 5 times or so to get everything out. 2 weeks ago i made the jump, i ordered from UK Star San, i'ev been waiting a long time for star san and now i finaly have it ;)

i actually got +1L more than i expected but got a nice OG of 1.042 :)
