I've personally never had wlp-400 give any bubblegum, at any temp. Would actually be nice if it did. After a lot of trying, I realized that I just don't really love that particular yeast for wits. If anything, I find it too clean, if that makes any sense. How is the 410? I haven't tried...

Point Brewery is pretty good. I used to think they were mediocre, ignored them for a long time, but some of their recent offering have been more impressive lately. Also, they brew Liftbridge's beer (in Stillwater, MN - they only brew some of their beer in Stillwater) and Fulton's (in...

Sorry to drag up an old thread, but this is dealing with exactly what I am going to do, and was just wondering if anyone has done this yet and has any tips or helpful hints. Orbital sander upside down with rheostat? Thoughts?

Just wanted to share as a thanks to everybody on here for all the super sweet info, and as a note to all those new brewers out there. There is good information here, thanks mods, for keeping this resource going. Got a 42 on my first contest entry, an IPA. From Al Boyce - Grandmaster II. I...

Hi everybody. First post but I've been reading on here for awhile and just wanted to thank everyone for all the awesomeness. The collective knowledge of everybody here is a great resource. Anywho, first question; does anyone here mess around with calcium reactors (aquarists?), or know...
