Although I reminded myself 20 times during my brew session yesterday (Belgian Wit Ale aka no hoe in das gaarden) not to pitch the stirbar with my yeast I did anyway. Also dropped my glass thermometer right at the end. Time to invest in double of all these essential items I guess. Sadly I cannot blame the home brews I was enjoying since I am still building a pipeline but I can blame the plethora of franziskaner weissbier. Hey, I need the bottles.
This morning I am happy to report an active airlock from my first washed yeast wlp400. This successful ferm start I attribute to my newly built stir plate, the fact that I placed the yeast flask right next to a speaker playing them a choice selection of 'The Head and The Heart' and 'Graveyard Train' tunes and my passionate pitching speech of encouragement before I sent them off while avoiding dropping a tear in the fermenter.
