it was wyeast 3942 Belgian wheat. OG was 1.046, FG was 1.008. Half apple juice, half Heinz pear juice. It was in primary for 7 months.

I just bottled another batch, using a wheat yeast, same result. I'll post the exact numbers and the yeast strain as soon as I have my log book in my hands again. thought I had it with me today, but it seems I don't

Too late. I now have 2x half gallon, 1x 3 quart, 8x 1 gallon, 1x 3 gallon, 1x 5 Gallon, all in glass, as well as 2 5 gallon buckets, and 2 6.5 gallon buckets.

wait a minute, you could be this beer historian and live out of your van, since they need you to be willing to travel, so why buy a house you won't be using. unless you one of those pesky "family" things. the only problem is when you want to drink your beer.

rotting flesh? Diabetus!?! (ala Wilford Brimley)

last I saw the leaves were green and healthy looking, not dry, limp or brittle. the soil is probably pretty moist, it's verging on marsh where they were planted. but I'd have to go up there and look for myself, won't be back to see my hops until next weekend

my hops haven't been getting any watering other than what nature provides, which has been a problem where they are lately. Does anyone know offhand how deep the taproots go on these? Mine is about 20 ft or less away from the lake's edge, and maybe 1 foot above the waterline. I'm hoping it's...

My hops up at the 45th parallel have just started showing burrs

My buddy lives on a crescent, but the signs on one end say wildrose cr. And wild rose cr. On the other end.

In Ontario you can't get tsp 90 so I've just been using plain regular tap. No issues, gets brew hear clean

Reduce it until you half half the volume

A one gallon stainless insulated growler. Now I just have to wait for them to figure out the regulator cap. In the meantime maybe it's a 1 gal stainless fermenter

if you trim it, it will look taller. Beyond that I can't help you.

Twin pines Hammer Bent Original SG 1.008 6.3%

And today I checked the gravity on that starter and it was at 1.014. So clearly some of those cells made it through freezing and thawing. So I guess my last batch really got fermented with two strains of yeast

I have another batch on the go right now, I intentionally used 4 different brands of apple juice in it. I really liked it going in to the fermenter, and fermentation took off in less than 12 hours rehydrated yeast. and just found out the big fall comp will be taking ciders this year for the...

can we get a closer shot? I think I see stripes on those, in which case I'm starting to lean towards gooseberries. Also edible, stuff them in your face, or make jam.

Lol. That part comes after you've identified them as edible.
