    What I did for beer today

    Had a party with about 30 people yesterday to BBQ, watch college football, and drink my beer to make room for my new brews. Today cleaned the 3 kegs they killed, transferred new brews into them, and cleaned fermenters. Marks keg washer makes quick work of kegs/fermenters, best cleaning...

    Dumped a batch

    Recently dumped a batch of Oktoberfest that I did a triple decoction on. Fast forward 3.5 months after 3 months of lagering, getting ready to keg and the sample still tasted like a yeast bomb. Tasted like that during transfer to secondary but figured it would go away after lagering NOPE. Don't...

    Gnats shut down my brewing

    I hear ya on that one. I finally got fed up with them, it was a full blown infestation, that I set off foggers in the house. I decreased their numbers significantly, still have 2-3 show up from time to time they end up dead in the Apple Cider Vinegar/dish soap trap. I'm worried now that I have...

    What are you doing instead of brewing this weekend?

    Going to the in-laws (I get so bored there), and nephews birthday party. Since I'll be bored I will build my next brews water profiles and BrewBoss programs, and live on HBT.

    Adding Amylase Enzyme After Cold Crashing?

    I followed this recipe https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=123937. It's at 1.003 now, started at 1.032. Its a 10g batch in two fermenters guess I could just try it on one to see the difference.

    Adding Amylase Enzyme After Cold Crashing?

    In my busy schedule, new inkbird programmable fermentation chamber control, and first use of amylase I forgot to add the amylase before cold crashing. Is it possible to warm up to lager fermentation temps and add the enzyme? I haven't racked to secondary yet, my typical process is to cold...

    Side-by-Side Refrigerator Fermentation Chamber Build

    I have a side-by-side as well. Does okay but would like to ferment lagers and ales at the same time. My latest idea I'm toying with is to install a cheap small window ac unit on the fridge side seal up the air pass through between them. Wife wont let me me get another fridge or freezer. Two...

    Thought about it but the price still stops me. My Wilser bag works very well. Once it's seen a better day I will.

    16 gal bayou classic with a JayBird false bottom. Just make sure your bag isn't so long that it touches the element. The bag moves around quite a bit during the boil. I've never measured the bags.
