I literally just laughed out loud. I missed that one. Too many bubbles to listen to.. :)

Hey tim. I'd buy one. Seems like it would work, probably as accurate as a triplescale. Broke my hydrometer tonight right before taking OG. Would have enjoyed a backup. I want a refractometer, bad though. Beeralchemy has a decent calculator for post-ferment readings.

I have always been curious if that means the temp in the carboy or ambient. I assume it must be the temp of the fermentation. I have used this yeast more than any other which is why I decided to pitch on the freshly used cake. Blowoff tube started up within a couple hours and is going super...

I just brewed up a 1.074 foreign extra stout. I pitched it on a yeast cake of wyeast 1084. I immediately put a blow off tube on since I put more liquid in it then I originally thought and I knew it was going to be a big guy. My problem is that on the temp strip its running up in the high 70s...

haha I like the Fullonrapist Belgian! Maybe could use it for planned belgian? :rockin: Ill try to post the label for it when I'm done bottling but on the side it says: "The Irish MilkSteak is a vanilla cream stout produced with the finest hornerts honey, boiled over hard. Best served with...

Well I have only really gotten in to the hobby in the last 3 months but i'm going on 8th batch. I work the weekends so most of the week I am not really doing anything but reading, music and brewing. Today was a little different, SWMBO's car got totaled the other week and we went to get her a...

Yeast? Any unfermentables?

Thank y'all! I love this website. Problem solved in 5 minutes. @thebrewinator The drill worked perfectly. Thank you. Premium membership here I come.

I brewed up a milk stout last week. I pushed it pretty far in but not into the beer. I went to take a hydro sample today and I can't get the bung out. I even broke my airlock trying to use it as leverage to get it out. Thankfully I have a spare airlock. I tried to use a pair of sanitized...

Bartender and musician. Brewing and training MMA as hobbies.

Revvy.. Like everything it seems, got it right again.

I only use DME. My stirring tool is a slotted spatula. It does quick work of the clumps by breaking up the clumps in the slots. It works as a decent aerator as well. Everytime I have used a whisk with DME it ends up clumping at the bottom of the whisk.

I'm planning a similar beer. A lil lemongrass (little goes a long way) And Ginger

My SWMBO has been trying to test me on new brews I can attempt. She said a light summery pineapple beer. This will prob fill the bill. I would defiantly reduce the cascade. I'm feeling some Kent Golding at flame out but that's cause I love that for a flavor hop. I'm kinda worried about the...

The bar I work at has an import/microbrewer special on thursdays (the only real micro we have is abita). My favorite question that has been asked me was how small are the microbrew bottles..... Lmao.. :) :cheers:

Congrats! Just outta curiosity, what kinda beer is gonna be your first?

I think this is prob gonna be my next brew. Does anyone have any thoughts on adding a lil baileys in secondary? Or adding some lactose to the boil to get the cream aspect? Prob gonna use wyeast 1084.

Heard that. Wonder how many nola residents are on here.. :mug:
