    Should the WiFi icon of Graviator in Brewcreator stay solid white after the first 30 minutes of WiFi connection ?

    Hi, I try to use a Graviator for the first time. I could manage to make the initial setup and the calibration. Now I test it with a fake brew (only water). In the manual it is said that once the Wifi connection is established the WiFi icon in brewcreator's page turns solid white but nothing is...

    Fermentation has started but my Float says gravity is increasing

    I started a brew yesterday and I am a bit surprised to see that, according to my BrewBrain Float, gravity is increasing. As the fermentation seemed to be slow (listening to the airlock) I swirled the wort a bit (peak on the curve) and raised the temperature by one degree Celcius. The...

    What is your opinion about my Vienna Lager recipe

    I would like to have an opinion on the Vienna lager recipe that I am going to try to brew. It is my first one. Is it on target? Since I don't brew very often, I try as much as possible to use the ingredients that I have rather than buying new ones and letting the others age in my garage. As a...

    Cold crash guardian with lager: will sulfur by-products be reabsorbed?

    I am not very familiar with lager brewing but I am planning to brew a Vienna Lager soon. My question is about using the cold crash guardian. My brew is around 20 liters and my bladder is around 20 l. My fear is about the gaseous sulfur by-products. Since they will probably be stored with the CO2...

    Should I throw my beer away ?

    It is said to break down rapidly into calcium carbonate, water and oxygen. So why do all the safety data sheets say not to release it into the environment?

    Should I throw my beer away ?

    I admit that it is certainly not deadly. But the concern here is not to die but to know the health effects (in repeated doses). I'm not particularly worried, just vigilant.

    I am afraid you are right but I would like to taste it for the experience.

    Should I throw my beer away ?

    May be you are right and it tears my heart out to waste 20 liters of beer but is it worth taking a risk on my health ?

    Should I throw my beer away ?

    This morning I made a mistake while cooling my beer. I first sanitized the cooler (counter flow) during 5 minutes). Then, not to let it on a dirty surface, I dipped the extremity of the pipe in a jug containing sodium percabonate (~4g/liter). I didn't think to close the valve, thus when I...

    How long should I wait before bottling after I have added the priming solution ?

    Thanks for these information. I probably need to revise my way of doing things.

    How long should I wait before bottling after I have added the priming solution ?

    OK, I agree. Nevertheless this solution is a bit more expensive and less adjustable. Is this true if the solution is boiled beforehand, meaning the sugar is already dissolved ? I am a bit afraid of doing so because of contamination and oxygenation contingencies. I would be interested in...

    How long should I wait before bottling after I have added the priming solution ?

    Generally I use bulk priming after the cold crash. I add the priming solution (boiled and cooled) and let the fermenter in the fridge at about 5°C (41 °F). I wait for one hour before getting the fermenter out of the fridge and beginning my bottling. My thinking is not to stir the beer in order...

    What is this ? Foam that adheres to the glass.

    Thank you everybody. I will post a picture tomorrow because I only drink one beer a day. It looks like the picture above but in a lesser extent. I also have the same in the empty bottle and some same residues floating on the surface of the beer when the head has collapsed. It is true also that...

    What is this ? Foam that adheres to the glass.

    It's the first time I encounter such a phenomenon. My beer is good but many foam-like particles sticks to the glass and the empty bottle too. What is this? Why does it occurs?
