Yikes! I don't think i'd brew with it.

Glad the beer worked out. I've generally found windsor ale yeast to have very low attentuation.

will probably have a pretty noticeable effect. seems like a lot of crystal.

2 questions for you permo: 1) Why do you mash overnight -- is it solely for the 5% bump or some other reason? 2) Why is 140 the magic temp? I ask b/c this might work great for me. It's always tough to find time to brew with the family (and 2nd daughter on the way.) I could get a...

:D LOL, runs4beer. that is actually really funny.

my offer stands if this opens up to us buyers

Well, I think you'll find that the primary attraction of BIAB to a lot of people is less equipment to buy, store, and clean. Probably you're not going to save 2 hours in a brewday unless you normally do a REALLY long fly sparge. But to answer the 2nd question, I have not seen any lack of...

sent email. i will take it via sale or trade.

still canada only?

I'd say for all grain you'll find it difficult to have enough water to mash and sparge. No problem if you're doing extract though

i'll take thermowell. sending pm for paypal info.

PM sent on chiller. I will take it and arrange shipping for you.

Hmm, i did use S-05 so that's a bit of a bright spot. I'm down to 66 now and i'll let it coast there for a while and then nudge back up to 72 for a few days. I ALMOST pitched notty b/c i've got like 8 packs in the freezer, but decided to use my last S-05 instead. May have dodged a bullet!

Man that's not what i wanted to hear. I figure i'll give it 4-5 months and see what i've got then.

It was about 12 hours into fermentation, and i believe it was elevated for about 12 hours.

down to 71 overnight. i think a large chunk of fermentation is done now. But i'll wait it out and see what i get!

I just put 3 fermenters in my ferm chamber: IPA, ESB, and a blueberry cyser. Set the temp for 68 on the cyser, which happens to be the furthest fermenter away from my heat source (2 75 watt light bulbs.) Ferm chamber is an insulated box in my 54 degree basement. Temp was spot on 68 on the...

I would definitely do the mash in the 9. At 1.25 qts/lb the 5 gallon is going to be very tight. Little room for stirring and likely to make a mess if you're not careful. Mash thinner, between 1.5 and 2.0 qts/lb and do it in the 9 gallon. As someone else said, you can then start the boil while...
