I have, its awesome. Just something about it that is...man, it is heaven. :mug:

I wouldn't crank that sucker down, might end up with starter juice and glass all over your kitchen. I'd just use a piece of foil if it were me, but lightly putting on the lid will be fine if you want to go that route. Keep in mind that as the CO2 builds up and escapes, it is going to...

Thanks, Goose, I'll have to give them a call. :)

I do a similar thing. Just tip it back and forth on the floor for about a minute or so. Never have any problems with lag time.

Love the foam. Embrace the foam...be...the foam! :rockin:

Cost me $26 to fill a 5# tank at Airgas in San Diego. I'm getting screwed :mad: Any of you other San Diegans know of a good place besides Airgas? (This was the Clairemont Mesa location. They didn't force me to swap though).

That is interesting. I've never seen a krausen do that before. Gotta love those little yeasties. Just more proof that living organisms are not always predictable.

Let me get this straight...your GF taught you how to brew? And she has won 1st place ribbons for her beer? ... ... Does she have a sister...or a clone? :o

Anyone know where I can find his email address?

That is what I was guessing, WLP0001. Just wondered if anyone had a definite.

Yeah, I've done that before. End product turned out just fine.

I grabbed one of their Extra Pale Ales over the weekend and noticed that they bottle condition their beer. I'm trying to get a starter going with the yeast that was left in the bottle. Does anyone know what strain this might be?

Hahaha, I love that picture. :p

Hard to tell without a gravity reading. 7 days seems way on the low side. I let my brews sit for at least 14 days before I even think about taking a gravity reading.

Congratulations. You never forget your first. And yes, the obsession just gets worse. :mug:

Did you turn off the heat when you added the extract? From what you explained, sounds like you didn't. That is a must to ensure you do not scorch the extract when it hits the bottom of the pan. I'd also consider implimenting the late extract addition method. Essentially, you only add...

Good luck. Be sure to share your experience and update us all as to the progress of your inagural batch. I'm sure you will do fine. It really is just about yeast, water, malt and hops.
