Ok, before reading your comment I did just that. I have a spare airlock so I sanitized that in a bucket of star San and sanitized the area around it and in the grommet where it seals.

Just came home from work and came home to this. The top of the bucket is bulging from pressure and it looks like the pressure caused some of the brew to come out of the airlock. What do I do? Open the lid and relieve pressure then reset the airlock? I had a towel over the whole thing including...

Go figure I have a broken red bull can fridge laying around, looks like I found a new use for it lol. At the moment I only have a towel over it. Next brew I'll definitely do this. Thanks!

Howdy! I'm brand new to brewing in general but sunday I brewed some Graff. I believe it is stickied in the cider recipe section. It's a partial mash

I'm a newbie to home brewing but I'm using a 15 gallon plastic tub and filling it about halfway with water and using a fish tank heater. I'm using a 50 watt but if i were to buy again I would buy something bigger. Make sure you check how low the heater goes because some only go down ~68ish...

Thank you for the help!

So, I officially started my first batch ever of Homebrew. I end up going with the Graff cider. I think I may have made an oopsy though. After I pitched the yeast, I stirred it with a thoroughly sterilized stainless spoon and then took my original gravity reading. Suggestions? Comments?

Wow that's really surprising, id never think grains would wear down the rollers that much

I could always make some stainless rollers along the way

I was thinking of a set gap of .038, would that be a good general size?

Thanks!

Speaking of the rollers... I feel embarrassed to even show a picture because of how bad the knural is but.. the grains don't care!

I had already made the rollers last night so I've already committed to the roller design lol. I think the roller would be a cool project though I haven't gotten my DIY project fill in a while. I should also already have everything to make the roller design

Thanks! i didnt know most weren't synced by gears, that sure makes things easier. I could make the handle so it's detachable in case the drill isn't usable at the time. ill find a way to incorporated the adjustable spacing

Howdy! So i'm brand new to home brewing and im still getting some of the necessary things to finally start fermenting. Tis' the season for ciders so i found the recipe to make some Graff. It requires the use of malts and i found out they have to be crushed! So here i am now making my very own...

ill try putting it in my basement, it has been humid and hot here

Hey i think that might be it! That looks almost just like it. So how do you avoid it? Or is that just a part of it all

Kind of a stupid question but why is the yeast at the surface? Is it because there is ginger at the surface?
