Anyone else have any thoughts??

Hi, I have an idea in my head but I'm not sure it will work, so I'll post it here first to check if anyone else have done something similar. My idea is to boil my hops that I need for a receipe in a small pot by it self, strain it and put it directly in the fermenter along with the chilled wort...

I think the reason is that I use bags for the hops in the boil. Even if I tie the bags at the end, they get a bit compact, and I don't think I get all the goodies from the hops.

So none of you have tried the hopshot that I linked to? It is used for flavouring and not bittering. Dry hopping increases the risk of oxidation and it creates too much gunk

The wedding is august 4th, so it is time to make another batch, but I don't have time :) The thing I was planting on trying is this: http://www.totallynaturalsolutions.com/_uploads/flyers/HopShot_Flyer.pdf

hi, I was wondering if anyone have tried hopburst or hopshot in a finnished beer? I made an IPA a couple of month ago for an upcomming wedding, but I fear the hop bags in the boil kettle stole most of the flavour from the hops. The beer is almost tasteless and dull, I was hoping to save it with...

Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to use one spunding valve on two fermenters? I am planing to ferment under pressure on two fermenters, but I only have one spunding valve. The two batches are gong to be identical, but brewed one day aften the other. Will it work to use a line from each...

They are serving tanks. I carbonated with CO2. I pre-purge a couple of times before filling them, and then I purge some more after filling...

There will be no air to be whiplash in because I feed the fermenter with co2 AS I pump, but not enough to push all of the beer (I've tried). It is not a powerfull pump, and it is not self priming, so it will not suck and the trub will not get sucked in ( I've tried that too). The pump is located...

Hi, is it ok transfer my beer from fermenter to storage tanks using a small sentrifugal pump? I know some will say I may get cavitation, but is this i big problem? I transfer beer that is cold crashed to 32 degree F. And I use a small "chinapump" to transfer from the bottom of the fermenter...

That will not help. The angle of the stopper will still be the same.

It's an automated filler that uses pneumatics. The problem is that the bottle gets lifted when the cylinder retracts with these stoppers.

That is the ones I mentioned that I've tried. They don't have a flat enough angle, and get stuck in the bottle.

Hi, does anyone know where I can get som stoppers for bottles? I'm trying to build a bottlefiller and need something that fits inside the bottleneck and make a tight seal but dont't get stuck. I need a stopper/bung that are tapered, and has a hole in the middle. I've tried the usual stoppers but...

Hi, I'm looking for som parts for my bottle filler project, and was wondering if anyone here knows where I can get it. I'm looking for a rubber/silicone bung or something that makes an air tight seal around the bottle neck when I fill. It is offcource a counterpressure bottle filler I'm...

A starter is basically a beer 😉 I normally make 50 gallon batches of beer when I brew 😋

Thank you for the reply, I'm not sure just how big starter I am going to make yet, but we are talking several gallons big ��

Hi I was wondering if anyone have tried to continuous shaking a starter instead of stirring? My idea is to make some kind of table that rocks my starter flask from side to side continuously, that way the yeast is constantly in motion like it would be on a stirrplate. The reason for doing...

What about storing the first 100 liters in a 100 liter keg, the same with the next 100 liters, and when the last 100 liters is ready to be kegged, I mix all three in a 300 liter keg. All transferred with CO2.

I have a question about mixing two or three batches of the same type of beer. Let's say I have a 300 liter tank that I store a 100 liter batch of beer in that have been sitting for a couple of months. If I brew another 100 liters of the same type of beer, can I mix these two batches in that one...
