OK, that made me laugh. Now go to your room.

It's not worth the lack of communication and the accompanying frustration.

Finally received my supplies, nine days after ordering. East Kent Golding hops came with AA% listed, Challenger hops did not.

There’s a rumor you have a colorful sense of humor. 😉

I love RiteBrew, but they were sold out of several items I needed for my recipe.

I’m not planning on brewing until next week. But you know what they say: I plan, Northern Brewer laughs.

I’ll report back on the AA%. I forgot about that thread. Knew about the move … and yet still ordered. 🙄

I ordered grain, hops and yeast from Northern Brewer six days ago. Other than the initial email that my order had been received, there has been no communication. This, and the cost of shipping, is why I try to stay away from them. But they had the yeast I was looking for ... and you know the...

I did, and it's down to 1.022, which is close enough to 1.019. I think where I got hung up is my Tilt. It reads 1.026, so the calibration is off or it's just goofy. Thanks for all the help!

You just gave me a reason to take another hydrometer reading and another taste. The gravity has dipped to 1.024, maybe 1.025, so perhaps it's still cleaning up after itself. There's probably one bubble every minute or so in my blowoff jar. The sample still tastes green, but I expect that from a...

Yeah, I was just throwing it out there. I'm at a loss.

Hydrometer.

I have not.

I brewed a Weizenbock 12 days ago. OG was 1.076, FG is supposed to be 1.019. The yeast is Wyeast 3068 and fermentation was furious the first few days. The gravity was at 1.029 after 36 hours. But it has only gotten to 1.026-27. I've raised the temperature to as high as 74 and shaken the...

That's cool. Thanks. It backs up one of life's golden rules: drink faster.

Just curious: What would be the result of shutting off temperature control on a lager after 4 weeks and then having it sit in the fermenter at room temperature for two weeks? This shouldn't be an issue for me because I live in a cold climate and can lower the thermostat in my house to 54 while...

Chamomile tea ... you might be onto something here.

Dear Abby: I've been brewing for two years, and after about a year of using a Mash & Boil, I finally feel like I have things dialed in. I enjoy brewing this way. And yet ... something about a 3-vessel system calls to me. I'm not sure what it is. The shiny vessels? The idea that it looks more...

Looks good!
