    Small Batch Commercial Brewing

    How much can you make in a kitchen? If you are going to bootleg I think you would be better off with a still.

    I'm bringing back the "Is secondary necessary?" argument

    Being a rookie but I agree with this being a good enough reason for secondary.

    Foam Over In Air Lock

    So I have a really really healthy fermentation going on right now. The foam has gone through the air lock. Is there any risk here of contamination? 2nd should I replace the air lock with a sanitized one after the fermentation settles down? Is there any need to replace the stopper...

    Kirkland Beer (Costco)

    My wife picked up a case of the mixed Kirkland brand from costco. I think its good beer. At .75 a beer is really well worth the money. Anyone else have experience with off brands being good?

    Spawn from another thread..leave brew in primary, or rack once before bottling??

    So the books, recipes and guy working the beer shop stating that you only need primary tank for 4-7 days is true?

    Intro

    Spawn from another thread..leave brew in primary, or rack once before bottling??

    Why do the kit recipes recommend using a two tank system? Even Palmer's book How To Brew advises this technique for home brewers. I was told that using this approach will give a crisper tasting beer. I have only done 3 batches so I know very little.

    Cheese Cloth

    The kits that I am using suggest transferring to the 2nd tank within that time frame after fermentation has happen. I am following the directions. This was also the advice from the shop I bought my brewing equipment from. From this thread I have learned that when I transport the 2nd tank...

    Cheese Cloth
