Hello there, I have a a FastFerment and whenever i am about to pitch my yeast i need to aerate my wort as you all know. What's the best diy trick to aerate this cumbersome and awkward shaped vessel?! I typical roll it around on the floor. But have to be careful not to knock the ball valve and...

Turns out you're right. Everything fit! I kept pushing the bag around during Steeping to make sure all grains were giving the water its good stuff!! Thanks all for the super fast replies!! Lorne

Thank you!!!

Hello there, I'm brewing g a New England IPA (https://www.homebrewsupply.com/media/pdf/Extract_PDFs/EX_INS_TropicHazeNEDIPA.pdf) The recipe has 2lbs of flaked wheat and 1.5lbs flaked oats plus 3lbs 8oz of some grains. Do i steep the oats with these grains? If so, i have no idea how this will...

Hello there, I am brewing the Tropic Haze NEDIPA on New Years and I am curious if I should use a dry hopper due to the 12oz of Hops!? If so, should I use it during boil, during steeping Hops, or during the first or second round of dry hopping?! Recipe can be found here...

Not sure. That’s just what it says. What do you think: https://www.homebrewsupply.com/tropic-haze-nedipa-extract-recipe-kit.html

Copy that, thank you! I’ll need to run to my brew store to pick up another. That’s why I was asking if I should try a different strand since I’ll be there anyway. Thanks, Lorne

Ok cool. I’ll check where we are either a hydro test. By the way, different question and maybe I need a new thread for this. How do you determine the expected final gravity when most recipes don’t even give this info in their recipe?

Hello there, I’m going to brew the Tropic Haze DNEIPA soon and I ordered the dry US-05 yeast packet. That’s what I typically use since I never know when I’ll have time to brew with two kiddos! Typically I just rehydrate the yeast. But I’m worried that won’t be good enough for a double NEIPA...

Hello there, I’m fermenting a Bourbon Barre Porter right now and I’m still in primary in my fastferment fermentation container. It was very aggressive a few hours after I pitched the yeast for a few days. Now it’s almost stopped. A lot slower than my beers in the past. Is this expected? Or...

Thanks for the feedback. How do you open your keg and pull the hop filter out after it’s already pressurized? Isn’t that just another added risk of contaminating the beer?

If I do use a hop filter in my fermentation stage. Will it still be a hazy IPA? Or will I lose that affect?

I am waiting for my HomeBrew Supply Tropical Haze NE IPA (https://www.homebrewsupply.com/tropic-haze-nedipa-extract-recipe-kit.html). I have never done an IPA with this many hops before and I can’t freaking wait. I’m curious though what you recommend I do for all the hopping stages: 1...

Ignore my last post. Just saw this. Thanks!

Where do I buy beans?

Oooo that’s a good idea. Where do I buy those?

Dang you’re letting it condition for some time! I’m going to keg it. I hope it’s ready to drink by Christmas. But that’s being pretty hopeful. Realistically in January. I’ll follow the recipe the. Thanks!

I just brewed this today: https://www.northernbrewer.com/bourbon-barrel-porter-extract-kit Should I add anything other than oak chips and bourbon when it comes time? Or should I add spices or anything else? Thanks, Lorne

So how does that affect my brew?
