    Shiner Beer (Spoetzl Brewery)

    WHHHaaaaaaaa??? So in Texas anything over 5% HAD to be called an "Ale"?? :confused: Did this only apply to beer brewed in Texas, or anything sold in Texas? So beer under 5% could been called a lager or ale depending on top or bottom yeast? :off:Are these types of stupid laws what kept...

    They have not been taking orders for a few weeks, due to the demand. I got mine from yemoos.com, it was $15 for a Tbsp and $5 shipping. Also, ship hydrated cultures in a vacuum sealed bag, but they are based state side. They only ship out on Monday's, and I got mine in the mail on wed. Already...

    So you'd say 1:1? I only got a hold of a case or two this last season but they were all in late Nov, early Dec. So it's been quite a while, and I'm going purely off memory....

    Anyone have experience with Ginger Beer Plant?

    No, like CHERRYLinND said, it's just sanitizing the surface (bad word chioce). The root itself barely gets hot, it just kills anything living on the surface without the use of chemicals... The internal yeast definitely isnt killed off, as it only take about 12 hours before you can tell...

    Anyone have experience with Ginger Beer Plant?

    After notifying people of this someone pointed out that this makes a "plant", but not S.f&Laco (a scoby) *so this was my reply as part of this thread https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f95/ginger-beer-plant-source-289099/index2.html#post3709708 > "Yes, a GBP is specifically Saccharomyces florentinus...

    Shiner Beer (Spoetzl Brewery)

    true, true... its even more refreshing as beer slushies! (i think the fruit juice helps it to freeze to just the right consistency...)

    Shiner Beer (Spoetzl Brewery)

    So like a S-05 perhaps? So based on that, im thinking slowly roast and crush pecans and add then to the wort at pitching then make a fresh peach slurry/syrup and add late in the secondary or at bottling or even sub for priming sugar, or do you think they need longer brewing time? /or dark...

    Ginger Beer Plant source

    Yes, a GBP is specifically Saccharomyces florentinus and Lactobacillus. When I first heard of GBP years and years ago I was taught/learned that S.florentinus naturally occurs in ginger root, and the bacteria Lacto is also just naturally occurring in most homes and the fermenting ginger and...

    Shiner Ruby Redbird Clone Recipe

    i think a group (prob those of us in this thread) should collectively deduce 4 or so recipes that all seem likely clones, but each with something uniquely different... then each of us tries one of the recipes all at the same time and report back with the results that way, hopefully, we find a...

    Shiner Beer (Spoetzl Brewery)

    hmmmm, that is definitely useful insight, and surely where i will start..... THANKS! a neutral strain so as to allow the peaches and pecans to dominate the complexity of flavors?? ...yeah, that sounds like the tall tale of how it was first invented, i doubt she does all that crap in her...
