I am very lucky to live in the PNW. I live in WA state and the weather as far as brewing is particularly good. Not to hot or to cold. Thanks for the advice.

A big THANKS to everyone who replied and gave their input. My priority has changed now. Grain mill it is along with a spout for my kettle. I will also look for a small refrigerator for temp control on my fermentation if a good deal pops up. My kegerator is big enough to hold two fermentation...

I live in the PNW and my office is a consistent 65 degrees in the winter. During the summer I use my kegerator to keep it a set temp. I was thinking of getting another small fridge to set as a permanent fermentation chamber but just don't have anymore room. Thanks for your advice.

Looking to upgrade some of my equipment. I only have a budget of about $150. My current set is BIAB with 10 gallon kettle with basket (stainless steel, generic brand). Bayou classic SP10 propane burner and I keg with two ball lock 5 gallon soda kegs. I am thinking of going several options...

Thanks! I just panicked. I uses a siphon to take some out and it was just yeast.

I have just completed cold crashing in my glass carboy that has not been used in awhile but was sanitized very well before use. I found this top layer floating on top of my beer. I have never seen it when I use my plastic fermentor. Is it infected or can I go ahead and keg? I know the side...

I changed it out this morning. It is a pale ale and I am still cold crashing for a few more days.

I am done with primary fermentation and rest. I am currently cold crashing but forgot to switch out the orange top for a regular bung top. The orange top does not fit tight but works when fermenting. It is loose because it does not bubble during ferment stage but if I put a little pressure on...

It is currently empty. July 4th party drank more beer than I predicted. I also just purchased an Eva-dry to absorb the moisture. I just have never used the thing as a fermentation chamber before.

I recently built a keezer. Picture is attached. I installed a STC 1000 temp control to replace the original freezer temperature control. I am able to adjust it to any temperature. I am also able to remove the CO2 tank fairly easy with the disconnect installed. I live in the PNW and the...

Thanks everyone for your input. I would have replied earlier but my notifications was not working. I will read over everyones post and help continue to build on the recipe.

I listed safale US 05 because it is what I have available. I am just looking to others input and opinions. Thanks for your help. I am hoping to make a great NEIPA.

I will look into these yeast strians. I am open minded on every step of this process. I just want to make a good beer.

I will take a look at this. Seems interesting.

Got it! Thanks.

Is the whirlpool done after flame out to drop the temp? The dry hop schedule is 2 days after fermentation is done or 2 days after brewing?

UPDATE! So the beer was saved and it was delicious. Great after 11days bottled tasting the 16oz flip top bottles. I am going to try the larger bottles this weekend after 3 weeks bottled. Thanks for everyones help.

It is roaring along now. Thanks for the help everyone.
