    Feeding A Lambic Post Two Months...

    You can throw in some oak also for the brett to chew on a bit. But yah, 2 months is much too short for the bugs to do their things. Sit back and relax

    Lacto starter for 11 days... too long?

    I don't think anyone answered the original post's question about how long a starter of lacto can sit around. Does it matter? I want to brew soon (within 2 week window) but not sure exactly when I will be able to). If I make the starter today, it shouldn't have an issue with sitting around at...

    How cool could I keep my unplugged chest freezer?

    Awesome! I was thinking of just putting two big 15.5gallon kegs in there with the dip tube and all taken out then a rubber orange carboy topper on top an airlock and a plug on the other hole on the topper. Do a solera project with it.... Maybe 1 sour and 1 darker stout barrel aged type beer...

    How cool could I keep my unplugged chest freezer?

    There are people on craigstlist that you can sell things like a broken fridge or freezer to who fix them up and then resell them for a lot more money. I'm sure I could sell mine for $40-50 bucks. I would guess, but not assume, that you could keep the inner part of a insulated freezer fairly...

    Is there an updated model that still works since lowes doesn't sell this frigidaire model any longer?

    How cool could I keep my unplugged chest freezer?

    Hi! I have a chest freezer that went out on me, it's dead. I was thinking about selling it and trying to get a few bucks off of it but then thought of something else. How cool do you all think I could keep my chest freezer if I had a CPU fan or two blowing in it with 1-2 two liter bottles of...

    White Mold/substance top of secondary

    Looks infectious to me! Personally I would say either bottle it quick or let it sit for a bit longer to see if it starts taking on weird flavors. At that point you could either let it sit in that carboy for a much longer time to see if it turns around to something you might like from a...

    Need some info on WLP644 Brettanomyces bruxellensis Trois

    If you are just doing brett in secondary you shouldn't need much head space, I would give it a few inches but not a lot more than that. Let it ride until you think it's ready. I would probably let it sit in the the secondary 3+ months, personally, then bottle it and drink/age until you get...

    bug country 2014

    My only point with TYB was that I had just bought the melange and amalgamation otherwise I would have bought the ECY20 and ECY34!! I'm just glad because TYB doesn't have as long to travel! :)

    bug country 2014

    I have been waiting for bug county and dirty dozen for awhile but last week I stumbled upon The Yeast Bay and I'm in Southern Cali anyways, so I was able to pick up some Amalgamation, Melangie and Lacto Brevis so I was stoked and I'll pass up the bug county this time around to see how TYB stacks...

    Lambic in an old wine barrel?

    Awesome to see! I got myself a used french oak barrel I filled with a flanders red style beer in February. It's been getting better and better! can't wait to see how it is in another few months!

    Sour brown with lacto brevis

    I'm builing up my starter of amalgamation from the yeast bay which is a blend of 6 different brett strains to do a lacto B for a few days then pitch the amalgamation into it .... Stoked and looking forward to it! Will probably dry hop it also before kegging it! I hear a lot of good things...

    Topping up sour oak barrel

    I'm interested in what majority of people do. I finally just brewed a 5gallon batch and kegged that. i Can now pump what I need from one to the other and not have to worry about keeping the rest of it in a carboy and oxydizing it. The only problem is now I have to have a keg dedicated to this...

    Yeast Bay--offering some Brett blends

    Soo many yeast & bacteria strains/blends and so little time to brew and drink them all! I just got a starter going of the amalgamation that I'm going to do a "quick sour" type beer with pitching the lacto B from TYB in for a day or two then the starter of the amalgamation into that after...

    Berliner not souring yet...any suggestions?

    Yeah, I wish I had a ph reader... In an email correspondence to the mad fermentationist he pretty much told me that he would call 677 useless and to throw out my vial I had just bought because it wouldn't really create much sourness/tartness. ha ha I still have that Vial.... I might just throw...
