A 4 pack is way off for the two stouts. DS is the only one from the list that might be fare, but the problem is that anyone who gets Lawson is probably already good on HT.

I chose US-05 because I wanted to really learn one yeast strain and use it for several months before moving to other yeasts. I can play around with over pitching pretty inexpensively using dry yeast. Honestly I don't want to make starters or have to prep for brew day 24-48 hours in advance, I...

Thanks for the tips! I have always been scared off of harvesting yeast, plus I dry hop in primary and skip secondary so my trub sits a while and is filled with hop debris. Making a starter is much simpler...plus I can use that stir plate that's been collecting dust.

Are you saying you repitched or just made a starter? Like a 1L starter with low gravity wort on a stir plate for a day or two?

Yeah, my fermenter is temp controlled and I only lose a couple degrees when mashing.

I am doing BIAB with 90min mash(with a mash out at 170)...I wrap my kettle in blankets so it does drop a couple degrees, so even if it starts at 149 it will get down to 147 by the end. Looks like .5lbs sugar is my best option here. Can't imagine it will be a big flavor difference at only 5.5%...

Right, I've checked Beersmith and Mr Malty and both say 1 packet is enough...I even checked to see if I overshot my OG a little or overshot my volume into the fermenter by a half gallon...still said 1 packet.

I was thinking about that...it's a clone recipe of a commercial beer so I was trying to stick to the original grain bill. But if that's what has to be done...

So I'm going to rebrew a recipe I've done in the past, but never been able to get a low enough FG. I want to get this recipe down to 1.010 Mash @ 149 - 1.073 OG - 3.5gallons into fermenter 82% 2-row 4% munich 4% carapils 4% c10 2.5% honey 2.5% white wheat I've recently switched over...

Dat peach bu though....***

Wow that is a great thread to reference, thanks! I was shutting off the main tank valve when I tested the regulator so that makes sense. Obviously there could still be a leak in the regulator, but I'll have to try the test again with the valve open. The regulator is not super old, but it was...

After blowing through a full tank of co2, I'm trying to avoid it happening again. Problem is I have no idea where the leak is. Maybe someone else can give me some insight. Just got my tank refilled and sprayed the tank itself all around to check for any leaks on it...none. Installed a new...

just shot you a direct message

I would suggest posting some beers you are offering up to trade. You're asking for a couple brewery only release beers and offering up shelf stuff won't do it most likely.

No temperature changes, definitely no fermentation, but the regulator is old and a little messed up(there's water in one of the gauges). So you set the PSI with the popit off?

I have a corny carbonating in the fridge right now with the co2 tank in the fridge with it. Been trying to keep it at around 11psi. It required a little tweaking the first few days, but then it leveled off and stayed at 11psi consistently for 36 hours. Then randomly it jumped up to 15psi...
