Slightly larger than a credit card, so I’m approximating .035 with a cereal killer, crushed once. No tool to measure exact

1) Yes, I stir usually once or twice throughout the mash and stop when it’s close to drain the basket in order to help filter the wort. I added about a pound of rice hulls to that batch and still had a trickle through the grain bed. 2) Yes, I suspend a stainless mesh hop spider during the boil...

Thanks for all the replies! I will scrap the RO idea and concentrate on understanding the brew science associated with water. A few other questions I had: I think I should add in a water filter prior to filling my kettle. I brew in the basement where the old laundry machine hookups were and...

Beginner with water understanding here. Ward labs analysis report: My beer has been tasting different after switching from bottled spring water (hasn’t been for the better). Does anything stand out? I have been using BS to calculate water salt additions and am trying to teach myself Bru’n...

First two brews in the books for the 25 gallon nano. The first went great (blonde ale) with a 9.5 gallon batch to test the system. The second one (chocolate porter, 7.5 gallon batch, 11.8 gallons mash water) not so great, specifically the mash. Doughed in without rice hulls initially, quickly...

Thank you

Can anyone comment on how well a CF15 works with a typical 5gallon finished batch in regards to glycol chilling? Can you lager/cold crash effectively? They advertise it as being suitable for 5-half bbl batches.

USA, temp control fermentation!

Any other recommendation for cleaning solution to clean the parts besides a pbw soak and concentrated star san? There’s some darker areas on the inside of the posts I thought was rust but won’t come off with pbw or star san. The posts are correct because if I switched them around there would be...

Sorry for the delay in following up! I didn’t have a chance to brew this until today. Doing a NEIPA at 1.060 OG and plan to ferment it at 68*F. I will post results when done. Cheers

I purchased a used Cornelius 10 gallon keg and need help identifying the posts/dip tubes for it. I searched online and couldn’t find any info and I’m not familiar with these fittings at all. They are weldless fittings and I would like to convert the dip tube to a floating one to ferment. They...

If you decide to part it out I would be interested. Thanks

Interested in just selling the panel?

How did the DIY floats go?

PM sent for keg

Figured there should be a place to discuss this yeast as we brew more with it. I just received mine today and plan to brew with it next week. Cheers

Can anyone recommend where to buy a RPi kit to setup for this process?

I sourced my info from an annual water report conducted in 2016. I'm located in Central New York, where our water is held in Hinckley Lake Reservoir with water originating from a 373 square foot watershed from the Adirondack Mountains. It is at the reservoir where it is treated, and I would...

The taste of my city water isn’t bad, but definitely not as clean and crisp as the bottled I was using. It is very frustrating and I’m still not sure if I can equate it to that or not

Sanitation Equipment is cleaned with PBW after use and I always use star-san on fermenters immediately prior to filling them. Kegs and keg parts are soaked with PBW and star-san once a keg kicks. Sometimes I immediately fill the keg with a similar type beer once it’s kicked and ready for...
