Do you reckon it will fit a standard pallet wit ancillaries tucked in the vessels? If so, I can arrange Pick up and shipment via UPS. (Provided sensible shipping charges) Thanks again.

Are you willing to pack in one pallet for export?

I would go caustic first and then chlorine... Caustic soda solution will dissolve everyting organic, even teeth and hair... Chlorine will oxidize most of the remaining odor particles... Good you didin´t throw it... Throwing it or burning it would have put additional burden to our planet...

No recipe, but you dont need to rack onto secondary, just add sanitized fruit to primary once fermentation has subsided a little bit. Hope this helps.

I would try to explain it this way.... First the bitterness hits you... As the beer warms up your tongue perceivs more flavor/aroma compounds and at the same time your bitterness taste buds get overwhelmed with it... That´s why I am not tempted to try extremely hoppy beers. Maybe some day...

Could you not perform two smaller batches... I know, Iknow... Double the time... But is it not double the fun? Then you only need to wash the equipment once... Other way to boost efficiency is using first runnings for the big beer... And second runnings for smaller beer... This has been...

I find that my dark beers have an acrid finish which may be what you are looking for. You may want to try dark roasted grains, the only downside is that they add A LOT of color.

Have you tried souring a small batch and do blending experiments? That may lead you towards your goal.

Wise...

You don´t have to chill that long to achieve temperatures OK for Better Bottles, Regular Water Jugs or Buckets. Once in them, you could put in freezer or fridge and wait, but as stated previously, considerations to increase in bitterness and loss of Hop aroma and flavor due to longer times...

I have used only soap and water after a few hours soak for more than 20 years and have only had 2 infections. Critical step is sanitizing.

perfection. 1.- I haven´t read about multiple stage extraction, but you may be referring to Batch Sparging. Answer would be yes. 2.- You would do a Batch sparge to try to optimize extraction efficiency. 3.- I don´t quite understand your third and fourth questions. 4? 5.- Yes, the mash...

The beauty of not having to worry about disases like Hemorrhagic Dengue Fever, Sika Virus or Chikungunya Fever... Here we must be very careful not to let water stagnant beyond 21 days in order to reduce the breeding of mosquitoes indoors

If you bottle, you may bottle half as is, and half with maltodextrin. So you develop a taste. If regular too bland and maltodextrin enhanced too seeet, You may adjust on your next iteraction. Thinking about it you may bottle several "strengths" of both , carbonation and maltodextrin...

How long has that been gong?? Mosqiitoes have a 21 day larvae state. If you change the water before that you shouldnt have a problem.
