    Indiana 1 bbl brewery with fermenter $7,000

    Let me think about it mate, it is a lovely kit and the price is a steal, but I'm married so.....

    Indiana 1 bbl brewery with fermenter $7,000

    Tempting, but I just checked on Google maps and got the message - "Sorry, we could not calculate driving directions from "São Paulo, Brazil" to "Indianapolis, Indiana, USA". It does look like a fair old drive though.

    What are you using for oxygenation?

    Do you need to get more? I've read that with pure oxygen you run a risk of over oxygenating to wort.

    What are you using for oxygenation?

    You can count how long you run the drill for.

    Beer Turned Out Bitter & Sour

    I think Spundit has pretty much nailed it in his reply mate. Personally, I dry hop a beer like this with at the most about 7oz and that's with no other hop additions apart from bittering. I really like the combination of Citra, Idaho 7 and Bravo. I dry hop on day two with 2.8oz Citra/ 2.8oz...

    Brew tastes like CLEAN socks

    When you get out of prison get yourself a beer making kit mate.

    Calculating ABV

    Every method mentioned is obviously an estimate, I thought that went without saying.

    Beer Turned Out Bitter & Sour

    What was your hop schedule? Did you put any hops in the boil?

    Calculating ABV

    I just put my og and fg into beersmith and, hey presto, it tells me the ABV.

    Keezer making knocking sounds

    Maybe a stupid question, but have you checked to make sure there's not someone trapped inside?

    Alternative to walking

    Think yourself lucky mate, I was once attacked by a capybara when I was out walking. To be fair it didn't exactly savage me, but it was quite a traumatic experience. I still suffer from flashbacks to this day!

    "Saying it in your outside voice" Tips for new members/venting and/or entertainment for regular HBTers

    If someone asks advice about something bottling related, don't tell them to start kegging. And... Don't insist that you can't measure FG with a refractometer, you can do this perfectly well with the aid of the Brewers Friend online calculator. How acurate do you really need to be?

    Share a tip

    Start heating the strike water before you drop the acid, that way you should just about be coming up at the moment you have to start mashing.

    Oxidized beer issues

    You're right pc trott. Liquid can't be compressed whereas gass can. Not enough head space is going to lead to bottle bombs even without over carbonation. I followed the advice of a random bloke on the internet and filled 4 bottles right to the top to see if there would be any difference in the...

    Oxidized beer issues

    My process is pretty much the same as yours and I rarely have problems. I suffered one time when the bottling wand broke and I filled the bottles by turning on and off at the spigot and another time when I dry hopped after fermentation had finished. Are you sure your buckets are sealing...

    Levedura Kveik

    Depende de qual Kveik você está usando, mas geralmente elas combina com IPAs e APAs, especialmente NEIPAs. Basicamente qualquer coisa que você queira um pouco de sabor de frutas, mas existam kveiks que são bem neutros, por exemplo Lutra e Skare.

    The unoficially official new beer style "Lawnmower beers" thread!

    Brewed a hazey APA (4kg pale ale malt + 1kg flaked oats) and a Cream ale (5kg pilsner malt + 0.3kg crushed corn) a couple of weekends ago. As my mash efficiency isn't that great I decided to remash/wash all the grains from both brews again. I managed to get a preboil gravity of 1020 and an OG of...

    First beer fermenting, now what?

    I'd do that mate, check it wednesday and you'll probably be good to bottle. Are you checking with a hydrometer or refractometer? Just that 1020 could be slightly high.

    Questions about Milkshake IPA recipe- mouthfeel&Puree Addition

    The best way to ramp up the mouthfeel is to follow a raw ale proceedure. I'd increase the oats too, I use about 20% flaked oats myself.

    Fermentation Interrupted by Birth of Baby!

    I agree with Lumpher's post above, the only thing to add is - congratulations mate!
