    LALBREW® VOSS KVEIK ALE YEAST

    I pitched a pack yesterday (5/1) at 4:30 pm. I checked on it this morning at 5 am - gravity had dropped from 1.060 to 1.025. I then went to work for 6 hours and checked again. It's now at 1.013. Wow! My fermenter is in a warmish (mid to upper 70's) garage and I put the brew belt on under a...

    Where do you buy malt?

    I recently called around to some breweries in my area (Charleston, SC) about buying some grain. The first 3 said they did not sell grain to the public. I got voice mail on the 4th. To my surprise, the head brewer of the local Belgian brewery called me back a few days later. $45 for a 55# sack of...

    Favorite Malt Liquor?

    Heard similar stories in the late 70's. Used to hear they clean the vats in the Spring and the dark residue was used to make Bock beer!

    Single malt/hop recipe (ale) with BIAB

    For your first question, yes Kveik thrives at higher temps. Kwek yeasts also tend to ferment quickly. Not sure about your attempts to add Belgian yeasts while fermentation is underway.

    Excellent. I took off 6-7 years before getting back last summer. Been brewing better than ever since. Lots of positive changes since I last brewed.

    Only a "little sour" Sour Beers

    That's funny, I thought the same thing. Irish bar with Italian food. Fantastic food.

    Only a "little sour" Sour Beers

    I grew up inner city - mostly Port Richmond, some Fishtown. If you're near Fishtown on your visits, check out Andy's Korean Chicken. Or Murph's, yes Murph's for great Italian.

    What are you drinking now?

    That's still pretty damn clear. And I'm sure it tastes better!

    Only a "little sour" Sour Beers

    Yeah, I first tried one packet. Fermentation started fine but slowed in the 30's. I guess I could have waited it out but I pitched another pack. That got things going quickly after that and it finished where expected. I'm not a sour fan. I made it for my wife. Now, at least, I can make a beer my...

    Judge Yeast by bubbles

    5 gallon batch? One pack of 05 is plenty. No need for Propper starter.
