Anyone ever use a drill with a mixing paddle to mix the mash up?

I am using brew pal. Cool app! Thanks for you help. It did exactly what you said. Adding two yeasts packs In a 6.5 gal Carboy should I use a blow off tube? Already had one explosion ( 8% stout) don't want another although it was the best beer I have brewed so far.

I recently got the home brew app for my phone. When I go to put my yeast type in it does not recognize my yeast. The yeast i am using is Wyeast NB Neobritannia in a 5 gal AG nut brown ale. Any body know what other yeast would be similar to the Neobritannia? It also said to put two packs in...

We weren't worried about the series. We think they were still hung over from the celebration. Now I am a big fab of the blow off set up.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! She actually laughed about it. Homebrew has brought us closer.

Good news is that I spent the night at the phillies game. Bad news came from my wife via text message that my coffee stout exploded! Here are the pictures everyone always asks for.

As anyone used label software that looks and feels like professional labels?
