    Has anyone seen this?! (yeast starter saga)

    Just saying... I always use paper towels to lay down sanitized lids and stuff.. What i'd like to see is how he can harvest some yeast.. I also think the videos are fairly entertaining. It cant be all real... can it?

    My Ugly Junk- Corona Mill Station...

    Can over crushing really cause any astringency?... I've read that some experience stuck sparges... but that hasnt kept me from making sure my grains were good and crushed.. I still get the occasional runaway grain so its not that tight... On the brew apps I clocked 90% efficiency with no...

    Using a 5 or 10 Gal. Beverage Cooler as Fermenter

    Thought about this a little more.. as I had come into a few of the 10gal. units for free... and am going to try this out on my next batch. Going on the Yeast and Heat.. would yeast actually produce a higher heat than is with in the "style" or average fermenting temps?... in other words would...
