I got a bottle of grappa in Italy few years ago.... aged with black truffle.... i went back and tried to get some more but was not able to find it any anymore. It was a very nice parfumed grappa...

I usually brew 2 beers back to back. I usually make a starter with one and use a new one with the other. I only have 1 stir plate. Would it be safe to make a starter, run it for 24 hours and keep it cool... 13 degrees or 11 degrees and let it sit for 2 days? Or brew the beer but pitch the yeast...

I fermented 3 weeks. I usually always wait 3 weeks and let the yeast do the job. So no activity any more on the airlock and fermenting at 19 degrees. I dont test often while in process of fermentation. It's only when i tranfered the beer that i test it with a refractometer that i realized it...

Now it would be interesting if you could brew again the same beer and use a new fresh yeast from the store and taste and compare the 2 batches.

Well a 11gr of dry yeast is good for 5 Gallons

Hello guys, i did a mistake and racked a beer where OG is 1.083. I though it went well but now fg was 1.53 so that was not finished!!! i miscalculated my yeast pitching. i did put more yeast after so no problem with that. But before i realized that, i washed my yeast and put it into a jar. So...

I am planing to brew a Japanese rice beer this weekend. I also received my ph reader so i will add that to my brew task 😅 The joy of brewing and keeping it simple is fading away 😱

I as well aerate before pitching the yeast. You dont have to aerate if you are using dry yeast thow.

Well me i did a DIY variable outlet, i added a dimmer to the outlet for the simple reason that i find is loud but i have a valve at the output as well. 😅 I think that there is no problem to control the output with a valve but at the end Do what makes you happy 😎

Well i would not feed the grass... https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/sugar-quantity-mistake-in-priming.664477/

I did a honest mistake and carbonated 19L of beer by calculating by mistake 19G of beer!!! Ya, an honest mistake lol. I kept my beer in my basement at 13 degrees Celsius and every day slightly bending the caps and releasing some pressure. After few weeks the over-carbonation was managed.

I usually put them in the oven for 15-20 minutes at 350 when i flavor my wine.

Thx for the input, I had the asahi beer last summer and it was a nice refreshing beer. You should start a thread when you are about to do your sake so we will follow your process. I wanted to try as well but its the special yeast that is not that easy to find.

I actually got myself a RO system for the new year. I couldn't find a recent report of my city water. It would have been nice to have a magnesium and others elements result as well. Well with the extra fees for international shipping and our low currency convertion i will not be that far from...

I am not sure a store will be willing to cut for you many types of wires but if you know how to turn off the general breaker and have an extra inch on your wires i would cut 1 inch of a wire and bring it to the hardware store.....

Hello, I would like to know if there is a canadian company that you know that does the same water brewing test that Ward Labs do in the USA. Un to now i did find 1 but they charge 125 that is ridiculously high....

If you have a temperature controler i would lower the temperature 2-max 3 degrees Celsius per day..... Try to not lower the temperature in 1 day if possible

BrewnWKopperKat thank you, its a short and sweet answer but i will definitely try to have a complete knowledge about water and test my water. And i think i will get a digital ph reader so at least i will be avle to monitor and control 1 parameter 😁

Hello, So in this new lockdown i now have time to improve my brewing lol I brew in a 2 vessels BIAB, with false bottom and a recirculating pomp. I lately added a whirlpool to my BK And got a freezer and a temperature controler and already lagering a oktoberfest and a pilsner. So what would be...

I brew a weissbeer 2 weeks a go. BIAB on a gas stove. I never have any depisit. I have a false bottom and recirculate the worth with a pump. I am no physic expert but could it be that by heating with an electric element it create less water mouvement because heat spread in many directions...
