I used one package of salfager 23 at 63 degrees. From there the temp slowly dropped to 50-55. I just left it in my garage which is that temp. Will move to my fridge controlled at 50 soon.

Mainly I did not make a starter. Used all grain method, chilled to 63. Dumped salfager yeast in and it's sitting in my garage 50-55 degrees. Am I going to have any trouble with fermentation starting?

Boil some water and drain it through spigot. Also is It welded? If not you may be able to remove it to clean or replace.

I have a 10 gallon brew pot. I'm going all grain and will use the brew pot to heat water. I will than pump that water to a cooler and gravity feed to another cooler for batch sparging. From that cooler the wort will flow back to my brew pot for boiling. So I have a 3 tiered system but...

What about the connections to a chugger pump?

From Home Depot? What is the downside they are much cheaper than stainless? Do they still need to be pickled?

I'm going to brew a oatmeal stout recipe via all grain. I was thinking of adding some pumpkin and spices to make it a pumpkin oatmeal. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Also I have only done pumpkin in an extract kit where I steeped it in a bag at 170. I assume I can just add it to the mash...

I found a pump for a reasonable price on craigslist liverani ep 20. It says it's max temp is 70 c or 158 f. Will this work for moving liquids that are 170. I guess the obvious answer is no?

I have a 3 level stand and do electric brewing. The hot liquor tank is on top and for that I have one of those circular coolers from Home Depot. The boil kettle is on the bottom. My issue is I want to use the boil kettle to heat all the h2o and transfer it to the hlt on top. I have a vacuum...

I started an extract kit yesterday. It is a pumpkin ale so it had lots of spices in the boil as well as pumpkin. I noticed when I was siphoning it into my conical that quite a few solid particles were going through the tube. In order to prevent off flavors (at least in my mind) I dumped the...

I checked the gravity again today and there was no change. Still 1.020

So you take already carbonated beer and just run it into cold bottles with a faucet. Is that what you are saying? You don't lose carbonation that way?

I brewed up a home brew and kegged it about 4 months ago. At that time I also force carbed it. I think I over carbed it because it comes out almost all foam. I would like to bottle it now and am not sure if this is possible? I have a vacuum bottling system but I'm not sure I can use it...

Cool thx

The gravity is 1.020

Yes extract

First thx for your help. I did not do an og reading does that matter?

Really that soon? I just pitched 3 days ago and it wasn't bubbling yesterday either.

I took of the airlock off and peered in no krausen and no movement. It's strange because the airlock was bubbling around 15 hours after pitching but has stopped.

Yes no bubbles. I can't see inside because my fermenter is stainless conical.
