Thanks for the thoughts guys. I still think about her multiple times a day. We’re in our new house now and starting to get life back together. I have some material now for a stand so I’m just going to be making a single tier stand now. What a difference having a three car garage...

Thanks for the thoughts... this has been a tough and. Trying time

Thanks for the response guys... Once again, life has gotten in the way. I was originally planning this stand before my daugher was born. She passed at three days old. Now were going to be purchasing a new home within the next couple months so my brew equipment is now in a storage unit. I will...

Sorry to bump this thread but I was looking at my older subscribed threads and thought Id add to it once again. I almost feel with the Huge craft beer movement though-out the country, the "stigma" of being a homebrewer has changed a bit. Ive noticed people done give you a weird look or have...

I havnt brewed in over two years and really want to get back into the hobby. I currently have a single tierish brew stand that holds my Boil pot and Mash tun. My RIMS tube is mounted to the stand as well. I have a secondary stand that I had made to fit over my turkey fryer burner. so I can...

I wonder if it has a hefe strain of sacc in it

I ended up hitting 1086 before boil. I'm happy.

So quick update. I made a Nelson Sauvin Pale ale 3 weeks ago. All went well. Today, I making a Imperial stout with 28 lbs of grain and the ****er stuck again. This time I put some stainless screws on in my false bottom to prevent it to completely collapsing. I put in a lb of rice hulls. I...

Na I prefer the toilet

The only Belgium strains I have sitting around are saison strains. Hate to waste one in a sour that will end up more complex then a saison. Maybe I'll buy a smack pack and toss half in and grow the other half into something else. I used ardens in primary for my flanders red. I guess I could...

I'm just slightly concerned about the viability of the sacch since this vial is fairly old. I guess I can get some clean ale yeast that doesn't have high attenuation or I could just mash hotter.

I plan on a starting a 15 gallon solera project in a few weeks. The plan is to make a decent base beer transfer it after primary for souring. I made a really decent flanders red a year and a half ago and I'm thinking about using that recipe again since I know it's good. Or I could find a lambic...

I'll pm you so the thread stays on subject.

I had a batch of roselare that didn't develop a Pellicle after months. There was no sign of active fermentation after a week or so. I'm not convinced that's the best blend in any way shape or form. Maybe I had a bad batch but I won't be buying another pack.

It is now. I just made it. Actually I Google it and there wasn't any actual proof that the word exists.
