The same site has a "Digital Sugar Refractometer For General Purpose" which might work better for wort/beer measurements. Sorry if this is 5 months late. http://www.technodepot.com/product/view/product/milwaukee-instruments-ma871-digital-sugar-refractometer-for-general-purpose-with-atc

What is the reason for adding addition pressure, apart from a CO2 blanket that could be at atmospheric pressure. How does pressure change the fermentation of yeast? Does a higher pressure force more anaerobic activity from the yeast? More off-flavors from esters? I've heard at high pressures...

calder So... I denatured the enzymes and never got the sugar content.

Craveji I haven't tasted it. I haven't had to drain any for a reading, because I have a hydrometer floating in the carboy. I tired to keep it at 154F with propane. Unionrdr It has been holding at 1.024 for at least 5 days.

I tried heating and swirling, but it hasn't done anything. I raised the temperature to 80 then let it drop to 76 for more than two days. questions: Should I add some fermentables? So current I have ~5 gallons with a gravity of 1.024 and a target of 1.014 (OG=1.060). White labs says the...

I had good fermentation going, 1" krausen and popping airlock. I tried swirling, but the motions are limited with a dry airlock. I'll put a bung in it and really give it a shake. Thanks for the amazingly quick reply.

I have not racked to secondary. I am not panicked, and do not plan on doing anything like drain pouring. I did this recipe about 2 weeks ago http://hopville.com/recipe/496796/robust-porter-recipes/pipeline-porter-clone I got close to the original gravity(1.058), but the temperature...

Ok I'll make sure to get that order and aerate my starter if that's okay. thanks for the help

I'm current reading 1.04 and my OG reading was a misread. It was touching the bottom. The FG for this beer is 1.013 @ 5.1%. It hasn't really been working for three days. The yeast worked noticeably for about 8-12 hours. That would be some super awesome yeast if they finished. I pitched one...

Background I made a brew for the first time. It was a clone of hitachino white nest ale. I thought I had foaming sanitizer, but it was actually line cleaner. I still used the line cleaner, but I had to wash it out with tap water. I prepared my yeast early, so they sat for roughly 5 hours at...
