    BG12 vs BG14 burners

    I cant comment on the bg12, but I have 2 bg14s for my hlt and bk, and they work great. I have the natural gas orifice. I am not direct firing my mt, but I have heard that it is easy to overshoot your mark with the larger burner. I got mine from brewers hardware, but you can get them at NB as well.

    Yeast starter question

    I would put it in the fridge, which will cold crash the yeast. When you brew, decant the clear stuff and just pitch the slurry. I do that with most of my batches.

    Keeping Star San

    I start a fresh batch of star san when sanitizing a fermenter. Transfer that to a keg on brew day and a little for a spray bottle. Transfer from keg to fermenter and this becomes a sanitized keg for the beer just made. Repeat until the star san is dirty or old.

    Farmhouse Brewing Supply

    Huge shout out to Farmhouse today! I called yesterday (4/11/2017) to inquire on inventory for Fuggles hops. They didn't have any in stock and no eta. I didnt ask for a call back and didn't even leave my number, but John called back later the same day and said he got some in. I had already placed...

    Bulk grain storage

    Thanks all. My intent was to use either buckets or air tight storage containers, but I got lazy. I did pickup some used frosting buckets from Target, but even after cleaning and PBW soak, they still smell like vanilla.

    Bulk grain storage

    I bought a bag of 2-row on sale around 6 months ago. Due to winter, life, and finishing up a bag of Maris Otter, it has remained unopened and the bag was on my basement floor the whole time. I am getting ready to brew 4 batches and wondering if the grains still good?

    Single hop IPA

    Smash or single hop beers are one way, but there are too many hops out there. I usually take a short and find out what commercial beers out there are single hop and buy one of those.

    Recirculating through MLT Lid

    Just a hole large enough for the hose. I open the lid to adjust the flow rate and the height above the grain, then close it up for a 10 min vorlauf.

    Recirculating through MLT Lid

    Yes, that's how mine is. I keep the hose in the hole during the mash so heat loss is negligible, and recirculate for the last 10 mins.
