how may packs of yeast did you put into the stater? According to the Mr. Malty pitching calc, you need 2 packs in 1 liter w/ stir plate.

Pm sent :)

On a receptacle the brass colored screw is the "hot" and the silver is the neutral. And as was said always switch the hot.

Really you can put the probe any where in the system that will be consistent. So pretty much any where but in the mash, as your grain bill will change. Just take good notes. If your probe says *158 and your mash is *154 then you know to set your controller 4 degrees higher.

Nice pics looks like fun. Im right across the water from ya in PO. All my chiller hoses are under 6" of snow, ice and slush. Hope I can get them thawed out and get a brew in this weekend.

I seconed the 1968. Have made many fine London Pride clones with that yeast. I have found that isinglass works very well with it. For me better than gelation.

You can just leave it on there.

This sound pretty much like what I had planed for this winter. Although I think I'm going to do a 10g batch and age 5 of it on coco nibs for a while. As for your questions on hops and sugar, I would lose the 5 and 10 minute additions. And like dirty martini said, the D or D2 (I really like the...
