Take hold of a cold home brew and relax man. Why would anyone complain getting more beer so kudos for Brooklyn Brewery for shipping 12oz overseas? 750ml is 25.36oz so again why would anyone complain getting more beer? I do not think you will find such a person here. I just used the auto...

They bottle in ml. If you enter a foreign market for profit you customize your product for that market for maximum traction. Ask Mercedes or any other foreign vehicle manufacturer. If they can change something as complex as glass compounds and emission systems to name a few I am sure foreign...

I agree. I love Belgian Palm but also drink commercial beer for the bottles so Palm is out at 11.2oz Silly really. I am now so hooked on these: Franziskaner Weissbier Spaten Optimator Doppelbock and yes they are in 12oz bottles. Can I get a amen?

Thanks everyone for the feedback and advice, much appreciated. I will wait it out.

Thanks for the feedback and tips. What a cool forum with a bunch of great guys. Makes brewing that much more fun. Cheers!

lol, I will have to judge this beer with that in mind.

dragonbreath11 you could have played it the other way (for a second I thought you did) and said.... Aprils fool!

Whatever makes it work but controlling the speed by exchanging wall warts is not the way to do it. Build a correct speed controller and you can make the stir bar do a pirouette on command. Just saying.

Someone did miss the boat, plane, train.... or did we? ;)

That makes me feel marginally better, thanks!

Although I reminded myself 20 times during my brew session yesterday (Belgian Wit Ale aka no hoe in das gaarden) not to pitch the stirbar with my yeast I did anyway. Also dropped my glass thermometer right at the end. Time to invest in double of all these essential items I guess. Sadly I cannot...

Ok more time I will give with hope of a more satisfying outcome. so how much cold conditioning is recommended, just the 3 days?

I am a new brewer with a massive three brews under my belt that is two in bottles and one in the secondary. The first brew was Brewers Best continental pilsner and it came out ok. The second was from my LHBS a Belgian Blonde Ale. The brew went well other than steeping temperature temporarily...

Do not cut the spring! Really force and twist it up with a screwing motion into the white tip. It will then connect to the red base without kinking the spring and work as it should.

What do you recommend for pitching temps?

I pitched at about 60F. My starter was 5 days old. 2 days at room temp and 3 days in fridge then back to room temp and pitch.

Mr. Malty also called for a two vile starter on my last lager. The yeast was one month past expiry date. It blew the lid off my primary and i could not close it for eight hours. Sorry for the large image.

I have a chest freezer with a ranco controller for lagering. It is set to stay between 35F and 42F and seemingly that is what it does by its digital readout but I added a small freestanding freezer thermometer today and it shows about 6F colder than the ranco shows. The ranco sensor is loosely...

Did you have one too many home brews? That says 'recipes' ;) Stupid auto correct on iPhone it was.
