    Johnson temperature controller not working

    Hefeweizen clarifying

    So I did a half with 6 pounds of wheat extract and some other grains. It was a partial mash. I hear that the wheat beer can clarify it kept long enough but I'm just wondering how long does that take? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
