    Anybody up for a riddle?

    Anybody up for a riddle?

    It's an old one but not that well known, I think. What's greater than God, More evil than the devil, The poor have it, The rich need it, And if you eat it you will die?

    Primary Fermenter blow off

    Thanks guys. This imperial stout kinda scares me, but darn that stuff is good.

    Primary Fermenter blow off

    I have a pail as my primary fermenter. It's got a tiny hole for the airlock. Am I going to be able to attach a suitable blow off on this? I intend to make an Imperial Stout which I hear can get a bit... frisky. I have a better bottle as my secondary. Should I swap them around for the purposes...

    Bottle bomb time frame

    I'm sure I'm safe. I have no reason to think it's going to happen but I hear it's possible. Currently, the booze is in a tiled utility room. I'm going to store the beer in a carpeted walk-in cupboard after a while. I just want to make sure I don't wreck said carpet, and my sex life.

    Bottle bomb time frame

    I've just bottled my first batch. How long do you think until I'm in the clear regarding bottle bombs? Temp range 70-75dF I'm going to have to explain this phenomenon to SWMBO. She's from Texas and yes, she keeps a gun next to the bed. I'm worried I'll wake up to her thinking a gun fight has...

    Where to start?

    Try to find an expat forum here's a couple I just found (I also came upon an article that says Holland isn't the nation to it's expat community. Bummer). You might be able to find a homebrewer somewhere near you. I would also post a thread with "are you in Holland/Netherlands" in the title...

    Sediment in bottles.

    As above, with practice you should be able to pour it and leave all the sediment in about 1/4" (that's 6.35mm for almost everyone else on the planet) of delicious booze. Personally I think that's a bit optimistic; 7mm max! ;)

    Transporting Primary/secondary fermenter

    I'm itching to brew up a bad a$$ imperial stout, but we're looking to move house asap. I'm worried about being half way through fermentation and having to move my fermenter. I'd have to put it into my car and drive to the new home and put it back in the bathtub :) How much damage would I...

    Not the best brew day

    Sounds to me that you're going to end up with some perfectly drinkable beer. A success if ever I heard one :mug:

    Wort whirlpool direction with my immersion chiller?

    I can't decide if you guys are messing around or not. In case your not, North south of the equator doesn't make a difference. It's more about the flow of the liquid at the beginning and the shape of what it's moving in. Once a funnel appears, it's symmetrical to its counterpart. So there's no...

    Does more time in the fermenter mean less time conditioning?

    Not 3 piece? Bummer, I didn't know that. It's been in there a couple of weeks and I intend to leave it a couple more. It it's in a single door cupboard under the stairs. I've put a couple of pieces of cardboard around it to shield from any light that gets in under the door. I have to ask, why...
