Which steamer basket are you using?

Does boiling mash increase SG? Some youtube videos I've been watching always take a SG measurement of the mash, is the SG measurement of mash the same measurement you get after boil? If not, why even take a SG measurement for the mash?

I read conflicting information on lagering in primary Some say better to transfer to secondary Others say it doesn't matter What are your experiences lagering your beer in primary, has this ever caused any haziness or off-flavors at the end of your lagering process?

I added sugar during transfer to hopefully negate the effect of oxygenation, not sure if that would help

Ended up sealing them with saran wrap, worked out well, thanks for your suggestions

I brewed a hefe 2 days ago and is currently fermenting in a bucket. I noticed there is no gas coming out of the blow off tube and realized the lid is not air tight and not fully sealed on the bucket. I heard hefeweizen can be open fermented and some people do it for up to 3 days I don't want to...

To add to my own thread, I did end up finding two possible substitues: Onlyfire Stainless Steel Charcoal Ash Basket Fits for Large BGE, Kamado Joe Classic Weber Charcoal Grate (22 inch charcoal grills) , Stainless Steel but will end up using just a large colander I already have over a food...
