The old adage "you can't gauge fermentation by the airlock" is so true! Today I pulled a sample and the hydrometer read 1.018, down from the OG of 1.056 which clearly indicates fermentation. I use a brew bucket with a blow off tube (it's just so easy to set up) and with every other brew I've...

Beast of Burden - the Rolling Stones

Thanks again for the input @day_trippr Just curious, I ordered some parts from MoreBeer and shipping has these parts coming in on April 7th? Would it be bad to leave this in the fridge for that long or do you think I need to move it out and off the strawberries sooner? I find this to be...

At least I'm not on mount stoopid (what I would give for a Hop Stoopid right now...)

That talk of graphs reminded me of something a friend of mine told me recently when discussing my lack of knowledge in brewing. He cited Dunning Kruger and the valley of despair on the plotted graph. Should I be drunk before I post to this thread?

Uncle John's Band - the good ole Grateful Dead

Rain King - Counting Crows

I'll assume "fv" means fermentation vessel, correct me if I'm wrong. SS brewtech 7 gal brew bucket. The yeast was totally dropped, and I don't think the starter was quite at room temp. There was a clear separation between the spent wort of the starter and the yeast below, and I am always...

Love Shack - the B52's

Does that mean you have a CO2 line into your fermenter? Do you have a picture of that in use? Thanks, this sounds like a perfect solution to my situation.

Ship of Fools - Grateful Dead

Just in from Bobby at brew hardware, a RipTide pump, camlock fitting and hose for my electric brew build. One step closer......

Quick update. It's been 11 days or so since I added the strawberries to the secondary and after receiving some good advice to cold crash this before I try kegging I cobbled together a solution with my cold crash guardian. I have no idea how this is going to come out, I've had days in here...
