Check this one out? Not sure how long is it? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001Q4CW4G/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20

Was not that big... 1.065 and shooting for a 1.017 FG

I have checked 4 through the fridge and all foamed away to nothing. I dumped the full batch today all of them foamed and the ones I did taste were funky. I did see it bubbling away early in the fermentation. I have been using dishwasher to sterilize looks like that's not enough or I did...

I just checked a batch of Belgian Ale I had bottled 20ish days ago. When I open a bottle it turns the entire bottle into foam. I had it refrigerated for a week before opening it. Question: Did I add to much carbonation sugar? 4.4 OZ 5 gallon batch was blue in beer smith. I did not check...

I have a Belgian triple in my secondary at the moment it also was a bit high in SG 1.095. I doubled the yeast initially pitched and I was wondering if I should add some more? If I do add some more should I add the same WLP530 already used or toss in some WLP715 Champagne yeast? Or should I just...

Belgian Triple, My first try of one.

Ok, Should I go into beersmith and change the boil volume to 2.5 gallons then? so I get the right Bitterness level?

I want to scale down a 5 gallon recipe to 2.5 gallons. I was wondering if I should do a full boil of the full 2.5 gallons? Beersmith scales the boil size to 1.33 gallons and then says to top off in the fermentor. I have no reason to doubt Beersmith but if I have the capacity for a full boil why...

I was looking at the weldless fittings and got to thinking it looks like a lot of weight to be suspended by the thin wall of a SS pot. (Looking at a Bayou classic pot.) Does turning the valve cause leaking? Would a support bracket be a good idea? Thinking of attaching it to the bolts on a 3...
