I have a few questions, 1. What is the advantage of the blow off cane over just using the barb and attaching a hose? 2. If I were to put a keg in my chest freezer, filled it with cold water, and pumped it through the temp control lid using a temperature controller would I be able to cold...

Going to keg an ipa and brew a dubbel Saturday

So i So its even lower than 5? Damn I have been brewing with this for a while now. I definitely need to start adding to this. Time to research that I guess!

So I just started looking into water profiles and the water I am using to brew with. In addition to the chart below I emailed them for a full report and the ph is 5.2 and magnesium is 1. There is a whole bunch more info on the full report but I am not really sure whats relevant yet. These...

Used the jaded king cobra for first time last weekend. It was like 30 degrees outside but it took the wort down to 68 in about 3 mins. Water running through it was probably in the 40s though. It's an amazing product!

Ill probably leave it in the fermenter for 2-3 weeks and then the keg in my 55-60 degree basement for at least 4 weeks. I don't mind waiting if it will produce a better beer. Pardon my ignorance as this will be my first time brewing a belgian but how do you detect phenols?

Mine does the same thing. My first closed transfer didnt go to great unfortunately.

Thanks!!!

I brewed a stout about a month ago and I am not super happy with it. I put some coffee in there and it does have a nice coffee flavor but I prefer a little more sweetness. I usually put lactose in my stouts but I wanted to try one without and I am not really digging it. Is there a way I...

Wow that seems like a great price! I might try some of those. How big were the batches you added 5 to? That seems like a lot.

As long as you saved the brew that's all that matters

Cool thanks guys! Ill look for a recipe and give it a go!

I want to try brewing my first lager but I only have 2-row available as base malt atm. Does anyone have a good lager recipe that uses 2-row as its base?

Growlers with flow control faucets. Works well!
