Very cool. Count me it. Now, if I can just figure out a way to use it for brewing too...

Dr. Jeff, I've often considered something like your oil/fermcap suggestion. Always bothered me that nobody ever seemed to consider the diffusion of O2 back through the water of the airlock. But, it has to be something that won't spoil the batch if you screw up and get liquid from your airlock...

Sweet. Love my 308. I'd be delighted to put the wifi version through it's paces. Thanks Inkbird!

You are correct. Gluten is a grain protein that is found in wheat, barley, and rye. I'd understood the question to be how to improve the flavor of an existing gluten free beer. Commercial gluten free beers don't usually get rave reviews, as they're usually FYB that has been made with less...

I make a bit of my own hop oil/hop extract from rinsing the containers I use to weigh out my homegrown hops. The weighing container always ends up sticky with residue, so one year I decided to give it a rinse with 190 proof alcohol and stick it in a bottle. Light sensitive and not very shelf...

United States of America. Thanks Inkbird! Looks like another interesting product.

Dear folks at Delta Brewing, thank you for having this drawing. Happy New Year to all. Count me in!

I'll add mileu to the mix...

I've been pondering taking a crack at a beer inspired by Short's Brewing's "Mule Beer." Damned tasty stuff, but lower abv than I typically target. Haven't come up with a recipe yet, but I like the idea of a bit of pepper to kick up the ginger bite. My wife says that although black pepper is used...

If you are looking for tips and advice on managing your hops, I recommend spending some time with the articles on the website of great lakes hops. (Think they're under the blog heading if memory serves, but there may be good info elsewhere). Geared towards the commercial yard, obviously, but you...

This would round out my collection of inkbird products quite nicely. I'm in!

2020 was a horrible year for me, but 2021 was my best total yield yet on my 4, 4yo bines up in Chicagoland. But, the harvest was highly variable. Chinook was a monster of a haul (25.5oz dry weight), overshadowing the yield off the next best (glacier) by a factor of 2, which was itself twice the...

Purple grain. Now I have to try it too. One more for the to brew list...

Those look marvelous. I've neglected my starter and need to give it some love. I've done English muffins before, but am still in search of a recipe I'm entirely happy with. Care to share yours?

I've done something along the same lines as OP and posted about it. Decanted starter supernatant, with whole cone hops added to get a quick sense of what flavors were there. The general response was one of horror. But, I found it a pretty darn clean and refreshing way to get a sense of hop and...

Yup, Medica. Just a small gathering... Around 180,000 of my closest friends when I first started attending. It's gradually gotten smaller and I have no idea what to expect this year. Huge, but slightly less so, I'm guessing. Great thread, thanks for the link. I'll have to read through it all...

I'll have to see if I can find someone to chat up when I'm there about recipes. Uerige is hoppier than most and probably why it's my favorite. It's also the source of my yeast isolate. The setting really is a big part of it all. Wandering about Altstadt (old town), watching them roll the wooden...

I'll be heading to Dusseldorf for a medical device conference in a couple weeks. I plan to more or less subsist on altbier and bratwurst. I too, have planned to make an alt for a couple years now. Never seem to get around to it. I've cultured the yeast from the source in the past, but may have...

That doesn't sound ridiculous to me at all.
