Hey guys, it's been a few years since I've been on the site thanks to "real life" but I'm back! I've been waiting to upgrade my rig to 15g kettles and a B10 type build. Basically the brew stand is keeping me from getting there at the moment and I'm starting to think about just getting the...

Nice, thanks!

Today's selections. I pitched onto the yeast cake from the IPA I just kegged during the mash, so no yeast packet. The boil My buddy Mike aerating and moving trub. Note the hat people, I'm trying. Starting to refill the ferm room.

Sparging with a hombrew. My Chaina Cat Sunflower, Brown Ale spiced with Chai. Not a bad conversion. This is the Chai, flash must have done something, it's actually not at all that dark. It's a bit darker than iced tea. Hop/Yeast Fridge

well played sir, well played.

Do us all a favor and bottle it and let us know what happens. It's nice when people share these experiences, it adds to the wealth of knowledge already here. Good luck!

sounds like the carboy is on an uneven surface, as if when you rotate it, everything just shifts over. Other than that, I have never seen what you're describing. Post a pic for the hell of it.

I haven't ever had a problem with it so I can't say for sure. I would think it's going to be fine and it will settle.
