I am getting ready to order my 3rd extract kit and I am on Austin Homebrew, for the first time. I'm looking at the AHS Imperial Black Rye IPA As I scroll down to the yeast section I notice that there is an option for a second yeast pack. My question is, can I pitch the Wyeast London ESB...

How many gallons in the Better Bottle? 5? If so a blowoff tube would be a huge help for you, just put the other end in a bowl of sanitizer. I'm guessing the warm pitch temp contributed to the violent fermentation, not a suggestion more of an FYI, but I have been pitching at 72 when I use dry ale...

I'll be sure to do that. I have convinced myself taht AM! will dig up some old set lists considering this is not part of their "White Crosses" Tour. One can only hope.

That's my current dilemma also. Congrats on a successful brew!! :mug:

Member of Dropkick Murphys opened up a club in Providence. It opens next Tuesday, and they chose Against Me! as the headliner. I have been into AM! for a few years now but haven't yet seen them live. Figured this is the way to go, $15 tix at a small venue.

Wasn't sure, what sped that up but it looks like it's some quick working yeast. I have also been fermenting at 72, but have not had a need for a blowoff though.

welcome! I'm in Fall River, where is the LBHS you go to?

Thank you all! Just got home and took my first SG reading, since fermenting. OG was 1.040 and my current SG is 1.008. The aroma of this Extra Pale Ale reminds me of something I would order at a brew pub. The taste was amazing, definitely the confidence boost I was looking for. I like the idea...

Silly question. But is this the step that makes Dogfish Head 60min IPA different from 90min IPA?
