Need some help :D I bought a hop rocket earlier this year, and tried using it as a hop back. I didn't hook it up correctly, and ended up plugging my pump and got frustrated and set the hop rocket on a shelf. I want to use this as a randall, but confused on how to hook it up to my 3/16"...

It does, cools down ice cold fast. He was a homebrewer, but was selling all his stuff. I thought I was just getting the freezer but he included everything else!

You might not see any activity in the airlock. Take a gravity reading in 12-14 days.

Pole, 3/8" will be just fine. I just affixed 3/8" to my better bottle yesterday when I got home to this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pq9kcshgPfs&feature=youtu.be

I'm making 11 gallons of this, and I'm thinking of doing 2oz of oak chips soaked in bourbon for 5.5 gallons. Anyone else try this with oak/bourbon in secondary then keg?

Gents, I just picked this recipe up but I got Belgian Debittered Black Malt instead of just Black Malt. Will this make a huge difference in the beer?

hou me, are you still alive?

Yes, and it's best to have a blanket of c02 in the transfer keg to remove oxygen.

Brewed 10.5 gallons of this on 9/15, used W34/70 in one carboy, and wyeast 2124 in the other. I did a 2L starter for the wyeast batch, that took off within 12 hours, the W34/70 took a full 36 hours to krausen. Both look healthy! Only my third lager, love watching the slower fermentation...

Has anyone tried brewing this as a lager? I have Wyeast 2124 and have always wanted to make an India pale lager. Any advice is appreciated!

Clanchief, is it Bill (Begin2Brew)? I know he lives in Antioch and he normally picks up my grain and arcticz's grain from Chicago. If so that would be dope if you could bring it to Bill's as long as you and Bill would be okay with it. Arcticz usually picks up the grain from there. I'd have...

Anyone able to pick up a few sac's from bmasons and bring them north? Pretty please with cherry on top?

Is there a listing of what grain is available? Also, is there going to be a google docs file with everyone that signed up? Begin2Brew, are you going to participate? :)

Yeast gurus, Looking to do a huge batch of Oktoberfest, 11 gallons for me and 5.5 gallons for my friend. I only have a 2liter flask with stirplate. Am I crazy thinking I can propagate enough yeast for almost 17 gallons of finished beer? The beer will be 1.055, looks like I'll need 1250...

I'm in for #9, need vienna, munich and pilsner, making a lot more lager!

So I go to pour some of my Hefe, and nothing comes out. I'm like great, the line is froze. Nope, no c02 in the tank. 2 of my kegs, the c02 ball lock connector has to be on just right in order for no gas to come out of the ball lock area. It's like if I press hard down onto the connector...

For plate chiller, just recirculate boiling wort through it the last 5 minutes of the boil. After chilling a batch, I just run hot water through (I save the water from chilling) the chiller, maybe 2-3 gallons. Then I will manually fill the wort side of the chiller with star san and let it sit...
