Been waiting to find some Zythos hops and today was able to do a batch of this in a 5.5 gallon batch w/Nottingham. Zythos .25oz went in at 5 min before flameout. Preboil Gravity was 1.042 and OG 1.051 - a lot higher than original recipe but used same grainbill as per OP's recipe. This was also...

I've got the 2 tap one here in Canada. I'm impressed with the unit itself, wasn't impressed with the tower, faucets, regulator, and gas lines. I swapped them out with some that I was holding onto for a DIY kegerator and when a fridge finally comes up on Craigslist will toss em on there and turn...

Thanks for the reply! I will wait till tomorrow to get a picture for the infection, I'm guessing it is pellicile. I suppose I should have actually posed a better question in my OP. What sort of damage have I done to the beer by resuspending the entire yeast cake in the beer? My thoughts now are...

Hi all, Back into brewing after a 10 year hiatus and I've had a great run of 6 brews that have all gone rather well. Switched over to All Grain and quite happy with my results. My Pant size disagrees. I brewed up an Irish Red Ale a few weeks back, pitched a starter into the carboy and...
