Feewu! Thanks guys. I was getting very worried as I didn't have any replacement for it. Brew day on!

This is how it normally look after 24hrs for my other ones:

This is about the 5th starter I have made. For all I use the Propper started cans and let them run 24hrs. After that time they look milky with no discernible big pieces or anything. All worked great. On this one for WLP-005 after 24hrs it looks all grainy and like not mixed/good. It is best to...

Yes I guess it could be used but they may be slow or may not work to push through a plate chiller for example.

I would like a closer look at the green stuff but in general doesn't look like one to me. Was the tea hop green?

I have a 20 plate 18” one that I love to death. Here in Michigan winter cools 5gal from 210F to 65F (or lower) in about 3 minutes. In summer is about 6-7min. Basically it cools to around 2-3 degrees above tap water temperature. Very efficient. Now I use a hop spider and don’t brew IPAs. Have...

On my 73 brews one pack of anything always worked fine for a beer of that ABV even for lagers. So I think your problem was not using double. Will another pack lower FG? Maybe.

Three base malts not fermentable? I don’t get it.

You are doing great. My ales drift +/-2 deg. My lagers +/- 4.5 deg. All come out great. It’s hard to brew to standards with space limitations. Brew on!

I have brewed 73 beers. About after seeing the first +/-12 was when I kind of let the infection paranoia to go away. Nothing there seems really abnormal.

I also have a Mash & Boil and a plate chiller and I wouldn't brew without my 400m spider. It makes cleaning the chiller a breeze. Also cleaning the spider is no big deal. Drain hops, rinse with hot water, rinse with PBW, let it sit while I clean other stuff and finally rinse with hot water...

About 40 brews ago I stopped sanitizing my valve too.

I just did the swap and works perfectly.

Ok. Then good because I think they did their job :) Thanks!

Great. Thanks all!

I need to temporarily add a gas line (brewed too many beers). I have this valve remnant of a CO2 regulator that I'm pretty sure will fit. But is it ok to remove that plug to add it there? Or does that capped end has some other purpose on the manifold? Tks

As mentioned beer was transferred to keg so no more yeast. That's why I asked.

Thanks. Well, I tasted it again (with two beer buddies also) last Friday and the flavor seem to went away. I'll taste it again this next Friday. Hopefully I'll have to do nothing. Fingers crossed!

I brewed this Vienna Lager which fermented fine to FG and about 5 points before I raised the temp to 65-67F for proper Drest. Left is there one week. When I kegged it the beer tasted fine and nothing funny. But about 3 days later I took a small sample (is carbed and on tap lagering) and for the...

Not me.
