    Auto syphon aerating my beer :-(

    I use electrical tape on my tube and wand.

    Brewing, how often is too often?

    I brew every 2-3 weeks because of my fermentation freezer limitations (2 buckets). I can turn around a simple blonde in a couple of weeks, but the darker, more complex girls take a bit more time.

    Too much Candy Sugar.

    Three Straight Bottle Infections

    Do you throw in loose hops? I have had some hops clog my bottling wand. Make sure you clean it thoroughly after bottling. Remove the spring and nipple, rinse with hot water and sanitize with Starsan or equivalent. The bottle bombs may or not be related. Did you stir in the priming sugar or...

    I thought I understood efficiency...

    68% is pretty forgiving. I'm guessing the wheat threw it off. What temp did you mash? Ratio? WTH is Munich light? Light color?

    Widmer Drop Top Amber Ale (clone) AG

    I have never had their Drop Top Amber Ale, but anything with Simcoe in it is interesting to me. Subscribing. I did frequent their brewpub in Portland back in their hefeweizen days (1998) and loved their stuff.

    30 min mash Success!

    I double crushed for 60 minutes, and single crushed for 30. It didn't matter, they both came out the same. My rollers are set at 0.90mm thickness.

    Show me how you drain...

    What gave it away? The pool open in March or the flora and fauna?

    30 min mash Success!

    I've done two AG BIAB quick brews: 30 min mash, 30 minute boil, 2 week ferment. Efficiency sucked at 69%. They were both Blondes, but I expect them to be okay. Will report back...

    Hops

    Let me preface this with I love Simcoe, but Simcoe is: cat piss > piney West coast? No.

    Calculating IBU's for hops at flameout

    Subscribing. I just toss them in with the wort chiller for 30 minutes and label them as. "Aroma" hops.

    How long is too long in the fermenter?

    Depends on how much brew you have on deck. Do you have something to drink when you get back, or should you bottle this and have it ready when you get back?

    National Hombrew Day!!!

    I brewed a Blonde today. That will have to count, as I have to go to work on Monday.

    Crack in my fermentor

    I've heard nothing but horror stories with these Big Mouth fermentors. Sigh. I would try to tape, hot glue or super glue until you can transfer the beer.

    Help me understand gypsum in an IPA?

    Two Hearted is indeed all Centennial.

    Simple Yeast Storage Procedure

    I don't even boil my jars. I just fill them with Starsan solution, give 'em a shake, dump and then pour in the yeast. Saves even more time.
