    Fermentation questions

    Softened water brewing

    Buckeye Hydro did my water report in August and since then , I put in a softener recommended by the well drilling company. The softener removed my iron and manganese problem but now I’m in the same boat as to the new water make up . My hardness was 7 grains and sodium was 9.04 ppm , Russ could...

    Phat Jarlsberg (cheese)

    So pasteurized milk does not affect the cheese making process. I had just been looking around on the internet, so gathering as much info as possible. What is a good small scale cheese To start with , so I can learn and understand the process? Thanks

    Moving to 5gal + propane

    I have a 20 gal pot , so brewing double batches for 5 yrs now . Never had a boil over . I use 3 bayou burners for strike water and boil. 10 gal igloo mash tun will hold 22 lbs of grain. Filling 2 corny kegs with each brew and just about the same clean up as a 5 gal brew.

    Cold Crash at 8ºC/46.5ºF?

    Why not recharge your fridge cooling system? Look up piercing valves or go to YouTube, you’ll see many videos how to do it for less than $20 . I recharged my mini freezer 2 yrs ago , and it cools faster than my new freezer does, just a thought.

    Basement Bar

    I totally agree with trashing all the team items any team or league that takes a knee before a game will never get a penny from me. It’s total BS what the sports have done to the American dream and respect for our country. If you hate this country so much then , leave , go to Russia , Venezuela...
