I am brewing my first NEIPA and trying to keep the brew warm during fermentation. I used an Omega OYL-200 Liquid yeast. To keep the temperature between 75-85 I put a small space heater in a closet with the conical and wasn't thinking. With the stainless steel, even with a setting on the space...
Hi guys, I need some help, my wife accidentally moved a container of about 2 cups of sanitizing solution (concentrate mixed with appropriate amount of water) to a shelf higher than my conical fermenter. I just noticed the entire container of solution that my exhaust hose was resting in is now...
