    Making a 2 Gallon Mini MLT

    It is very cool man....I cant wait to make my second PM tomorrow in mine. It went sweet last time. Only bad thing is it is going to be like 30 degrees out tomorrow. I'll have to be sure and get a good buzz on before brewing so I dont feel the cold!

    Starter Question

    I think he was referring to pulling samples of his brew for hydro readings. And dumping his sample and losing that much beer. Wine theif's are great for pulling and dumping back into the fermenter.

    Also, if you sanitize your hydro testing equipment well you coulld put it back into the fermenter after your reading.

    Problems with stouts and porters

    I was recommended to use .25 lb of black patent in a brew, much more will not be good for flavor.
