I have a harvested (Washed) jar of Wyeast German Ale (1007) that I washed from an Oktoberfest I made last fall. Whats the opinions on using it in Kolsch. I probably will no be able to ferment it much below 70 degrees. I used another jar of the washed yeast in an Alt that I made; the yeast did...

Is the temperature range of harvested yeast differ from the "rated" temp temperature of the yeast when new? I harvested/washed yeast from my fermenter and stored in the fridge for a month or so. Used a starter and pitched into an Alt. I wanted to ferment it on the low end of the temp range...

I have done a few partial mashes, so now I decided to 'experiment' and make a small batch all grain attempt. I already planned on racking an Oktoberfest style ale (Maybe can call it an Alt) to secondary and wanted to re-pitch some of the slurry from that batch. I also had 1oz of Hallertauer in...

I was a little aggressive on adding top-off water for a partial mash, partial boil. Added water to get to 5.5 gallons (Instead of the instructed 5 1/8 gallon). The target OG was 1.55, and I measured 1.49 (Corrected). Would 1/2 gallon extra top-off water lower the SG by that much? TIA

I made a Winter Warmer and its been in the bottle since 11/14/09, and it is fully carbonated; however the head goes away immediately and is more reminiscent (and sounds like) the fizz from a pop (or coke or soda depending on where you live). I even used fancy one way bottles obtained from my...

Hey all, I popped the lid to take a sample w/ my wine thief and expected the krausen to have fallen. The SG is around where i think it should be (OG: 1.054 FG should be 1.013-1.016); but that will be confirmed when I bottle. Plan on leaving it in for a total of 14 days before bottling. I am...

My In-laws got me a $50 card to AHS :cross:, so I am fixing to order 2 kits. The seemingly popular AHS Bavarian hefe and the AHS Promotional Karankawa Pale Ale. I am in Cincnnati 1) Due to equipment limitations (one primary) I will have to wait 3 weeks to brew my second batch. I don't care...
