    Brewing hefeweizen DME

    So would it be wise to lower the amount of magnum hops by half lets say 15g and add 15g of one of your recommended aroma hops last 30 minutes maybe ?

    Electric Stove

    My concern is the diameter of the pot. It is a 36cm kettle.... or maybe it does not matter much the diameter if the power is strong enough

    Primary fermenter headspace

    To take gravity i have a tap installed so i never open the fermenter during fermentation :)

    Electric Stove

    A single induction was the idea as im planning to make a small set up in my basement garage. The size in diameter might be a bit hard to find a single induction for it, maybe something commercial will do but at the same time i am trying to keep it low cost as possible

    Electric Stove

    Hi all, Can anyone recommend a suitable/reliable electric stove for a 10 gallon pot ? I see a lot of 2000W stove, will that work ?

    Primary fermenter headspace

    I am planning in making a smaller batch, like half the fermenter will be filled. What are the effects of having that much of headspace? If any ... Thanks

    Type of Beers recommended relating to temp

    Ideally, it is best if beer ferments at a steady temp, not swinging in the 7 degree range you posted. Thanks for your reply. Very helpful. Temp is quite steady, the range i mentioned is covering the coming months of march/apr. At the moment temp is steady at the lower end. Regarding ale...

    Alcoholic taste prior to bottling

    Honestly the sachet was provided along with the liquid extract as part of the kit. I dont know specifically what yeast it is but looks like the dry instant one in a sachet, similar to the one i use to make pizza lol If the case is as you say, at this moment before i bottle it, is there...

    Alcoholic taste prior to bottling

    Ambient temperature was between 62 - 71, in that region. I placed it in a wardbrobe and left it in the dark. My only concern is that i think when i put the dry yeast sachet to the wort the temperature was reading 78 - 79 F on the fermenter. Maybe fermentation started off at a high temperature ?
