Tell us how you really feel! :eek: I would still like to hear how this turned out... I like all three yeasts even if S-33 is not the best choice for a Belgian. Now US-05 - is a my go to yeast - is even further from a Belgian then S-33! Hope they were all good! But if these were suppose...

Here is my late night start to a yeast washing - not sure why us-05 is so cheap but I keep at least one jar in the refrigerator of my main stay yeasts and us-05 is at the top of my chart as a good clean yeast the will convert anything!!! Get FG of 1.005 speaks for the yeast and my lower step...

That is why I want to try S-04 again I found a few bottles that I forgot about and tasted much better Aged a little! Patience - one thing I don't have! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Not sure why but yesterday I brewed and used S-04 after having experienced the tangie\twang tastes I had experienced previously. I probably should have stuck with my mainstay US-05, but I wanted to give S-04 one more try. I was not sure if I could improve the flavor by fermenting at lower...

This my setup - just wish it wasn't so cold! Newark, DE Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I live in Newark De and I am jealous of the triple burner! looks like an excellent system!

For me the time is the most expensive part. I do all grain and double batches which take me almost all day just to keep up with my habit much less my friends and family! Grain is fairly Cheap... my time is limited!-P If I could get friends or family to help on brew day I would be thrilled...

I know I like the bar tab I have at home with my home brew (most days better then packaged beer)! Which is one of my major motivators - drink good beer for cheap beer prices! But it is always nice to be able to go out and have a few without breaking the bank. Enjoy!

Well I just tried this yeast - yesterday was brew day! I was going with WLP565 but WLP568 was recommend as good blend of strains. I will see in a few weeks. Currently the fermentation is very aggressive. I have had to replace the bubbler twice becuase is pust out the solution! I have...

5 wheat & 5 ipa 603 + 10 = 613

Man I will have to count up my batches... 31 this year... first 9 were 1 gallon batches the remaining 22 were 5 gallon batches with 1 gallon second running batches. = 141 galllons 57659.5+141= 57800.5

Now I found these on EBAY - thinking that I will skip both the Edelmetell and the Blichmann and go for one of these! Legs built in and double burners!!!! or TRIPLE...

I am sure there are pro and cons for both the Blichmann and the Edelmetall burners. I like the price point of the Edelmetall and it very pretty! Don't know about its looks making it snobby - someone mentioned earlier. But option for leg extensions with the Blichmann is definitely has a...

forgot this part - Brewed Sunday afternoon and pitched Sunday evening. so this evening will be 48 hours

Yes 5 5gl\20l batches Okay so if I mess up again I should just wait and pitch later - just keep it sealed up! Yeah they are bubbling away after two days - usually they are bubbling away in less then 12 hours. hope it does not get too stressed! Thanks for the feed back!

I set up for a double batch brew day had all my grains - all my hops - I always have some around if at all possible. When I go to the brew shop (buy local) I pick up two of these - 1 of them and couple of those as far as hops and brew based on that selection. At the same time I pick up a...

Sorry stepped away for a few days!! I ended up tasting the beer and it seems fine. I bottled it without priming. Will wait awhile before trying. Thanks for the feedback. Good info! Thinks again!

I think I should at least do what you suggest - does not take much to bottle it up - either I loose the batch or save the batch!

Thanks for replies but i understand the preference of one not move to secondary and to use a container more appropriate to the volume but I had the equipment I had so I went with my existing gear. I am interested in opinions as to what the film is??? I am not sure if it could be some protein...

Should read my posts better - DUMP IT? Not dimp it!
