Hey all,
After a couple of recent boil-overs and close calls, I've decided to buy some foam control that I keep hearing about. Problem is, I see it on a couple of different sites with wide price variation and differing usage directions. Prefer to use my LHBS but the owner keeps telling me he forgot to order it...
Anyway, here are examples:
MoreBeer, $3.50 for 1 ounce, use 2 drops/gallon in fermenter.

William's, $9.90 for 4 ounces, use 1/4 tsp per 5 gallons

AIH, $7.60 for 1 ounce(?), use 2 drops/gallon.

Is this stuff all the same? If so, I'm getting the Williams bottle and putting it in my own dropper bottle..
Anyone with firsthand knowledge of this?
Thanks a bunch
