Foeder too...No problem! Thats one that I always screw up but usually catch :)

Since barrels from 5 gallons up to 59 gallons are becoming more common in the home brew world I wanted to post this in hopes it will help. Some different options available if you run into this problem. http://embracethefunk.com/2013/12/14/for-the-love-of-the-barrel/

Pretty sure Crispin has done an all Brett Cider. They seem to know a thing or 2 about cider.

I think mine are definitely wort it... What yeast/bacteria blend did you use?

If it were me I would use the Brett WLP644 instead of the Brett C to get those characteristics. Its a year round strain as of this week so your LHBS should carry it soon. Realistically Brett can give a 100% fermentation over time...I wouldn't bottle a Brett beer until it was under 1.005

Gabe gave the exact recipe for Love Buzz in my interview with him last year: http://embracethefunk.com/2012/03/09/gabe-fletcher-of-anchorage-brewing-company-qa-recipe/

WLP670 will never make a beer "sour". Brettanomyces doesn't sour. Bacterias like lacto and pedio just to name a couple are souring microbes. Brettanomyces isn't a bacteria, it's a wild Sacc strain.

Gabe was awesome enough to give the recipe and process for making his Love Buzz beer. The Love Buzz recipe is at the bottom. http://embracethefunk.com/2012/03/09/gabe-fletcher-of-anchorage-brewing-company-qa-recipe/

Sounds like a fun split batch experiment to me! :mug:

Chris gave some good info on the upcoming funk in 2012. I'm pretty pumped for the WLP644!! Chris White On The New Funky and Sour offerings from White Labs in 2012 « Embrace The Funk

I used it on a Wheat IPA..loved it over the 1056 version I did. I've had quite a few beers with this yeast since late summer and all have been great with it.

I think Volunteer is open for a few hours on Saturdays .. I thought Rebel was going to start filling soon

1)Breaking Bad <-IMHO this show is one of the greatest of all time...Up there with Sopranos and The Wire. 2)Dexter 3)The Walking Dead 4)Justified 5)Tosh.o

The kid who cut our elderly neighbor's outdoor Christmas lights deserves it.

Yep...so hopefully everyone can get back to the topic of hating on Art
