    Source for Phosphoric Acid?

    Thanks. It is not a gallon but a quart is still a lot. I don't suppose it will go bad though.

    How long is too long in Primary?

    What does it taste like? Should be fine.

    Source for Phosphoric Acid?

    Does anyone has a mail order good source for 85% Phosphoric Acid solution? Hopefully one where I don't have to order a gallon of it? Thanks

    Haier 7.1 cu ft keezer dead...

If I put ice in bucket inside will get down to about 50. Compressor seems to be running fine. Not overly hot. Will...

    Jimbo’s Beerbos Famous Recipe. Fear the Walking Dead

    You guys have the batch size wrong. Try Jimbo's hop amounts in a 10 gallon batch. The IBU's make more sense then. Considering most of these people were probably Bud Light type beer drinkers and they haven't have beer in a year or 2 they would probably not like a beer that had 50+ IBU's.

    Sealing kettle lids for CIP

    I use a spray ball with the 20 gallon Bayou classics. I have the ball attached to the middle of one of the lids with a no-weld fitting. As the lids don't fit very tight I just use cheap clamps to hold it down. Nothing leaks out.

    Fear the Walking Dead - Jimbo's Beerbos

    I did not see anything special either, but I will go back and look at it again.

    Fear the Walking Dead - Jimbo's Beerbos

    So why give grain bill in percentages but hops in weight amounts? By the weight of the hops my guess is that batch size 10 gallons. Maybe the secret ingredient will have something to do with the show, or with Texas. Mesquite flowers? Zombie blood? :(

    Recipe building help

    6-row is normally used when using a lot of adjuncts because it has more enzymes for conversion and more husk to assist in sparging. To me it has a more pronounced grainy character that 2-row. With the small amount of adjunct you are talking about here I don't think the enzyme part will matter...

    The Kitchen Sink IPA

    Screw the .2 and .33 oz additions. Go .5 or 1 on all of them. It's a Double IPA after all.

    IPAs and Hop Comboinations

    I was recently given some Galaxy hops by a local brewer and was not familiar with them so I tried SMASH IPA to see what they were like. Also I can call the beer Guardians of the Galaxy IPA :rock:On brew day the whole house smelled like a pot shop. They were that dank. I dry hopped half the batch...

    The most expensive way to Homebrew

    Sam's, years ago. I don't know if they still carry it. Stupid me used it to wash clothes back then. :rolleyes:

    Best Yeast For "Finishing" a Saison

    Since it looks like you love in Colorado I thought I would share this with you - Whenever I want to use clear candi sugar I just go to the grocery store and buy GW sugar. It it made right here in Colorado from beets (the same sugar that Belgian candi sugar is made from). Costs about $3 for 4...

    "Fast" Lager not very fast

    It is one of their "Vault" strains.

    "Fast" Lager not very fast

    Mistakenly thinking that the WLP845 label read Fest Lager instead of Fast Lager I picked up a vial to use for half of my Oktoberfest. I normally brew 10 gallons and pitch WLP 838 (Southern German Lager) in half that becomes Vienna Lager. Since the Fast Lager vial was a few months old I did a 2...

    This could happen to you

    Today during my brew session everything was going normally until it came to the boil. I have a Kal Electric clone system. I turned on the heating element for the boil kettle after I had collected about 3/4's of the volume I was collecting for the boil like normal. About 10 minutes later I...
