search for "DOLCE" USDA SR21 (http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/) to get sugar composistion. 49% sugar of which 41.7% is sucrose, 1.7% Dextrose , 4.9% Lactose. It is also 7.3% Fat

Just to let you know you CAN NOT remove chloramine with boiling and standard carbon filters. There is special catalyzed GAC filters that require low flow rate to break it down.

I think the just pitching it, and not building a starter. If it doesnt work repitch with fresh yeast...

The gas will leak out.. Airtight is an issue for long term storage.

How is this better than just using O2? If your pulling a vac on the bottle it should supply more gas... The other issue is it would be diluting the O2 concentration slowing down O2 absorbtion.

I dont understand why boil off is expressed as a percentage of boil, instead of a mass flow rate. If the heat of vaporization doesnt change much the rate should be constant. Say you have a 1kW heater, it will vaporize about 0.5 g/s . 0.5g/s the percentage that represents depends on the...

I will third the temperature tolerance. Only yeast that works good in Riverside, where I am lucky to get 80F with a ac full blast. On a side note I could have bought a freezer for how my power bill is during the summer.

Pump with sum back pressure

How Cold was the water to start with? Where you circulating hot water back into the cold water?

Ah yes, adjustable hopper plate is what I was thinking. The second roller would have a better surface to crush against. I dunno the reason for 2rollers over 1, but my speculation is that having the non driving surface move with the kernal provides only crushing, instead of crushing and smearing.

Maybe it would be possible to make the mill adjustable by the piece of wood instead of the roller. Have you thought about adding a second roller?

Always thought conc HCl had a werid candy smell. Oh the memories of ochem

Not to be a buzz kill, but couldn't it be a mineral from the rock, not much of a geologist.

Also one could use glass stones and steel balls to simulate heat transfer through the packed bed of the mash.

Well I was off about heat capacity, but the density is much higher for metals. Grain is about 1.54 kJ/kg/C. Stainless Steel 316 is about 0.5 kJ/Kg/C. You would need about 3 times the weight of grain in steel to have the equivalent thermal mass.

Could just use a smaller mass of metal in place of the grain. Basically if both the grain and metal start at the same temperature, the mass of grain times its heat capacity equals the mass of metal times its heat capacity. M2=M1 * C1/C2

Can you obtain a water filter? Or you can boil the crap out of the water drive off any gasses and hopfuly odd flavors

No clue but the technology on that website is awesome.

Thats is good to hear I once left a mash overnight, due to excessive drinking with my neighbor. Boy Oh Boy did it smell sour and bad the next day. Still made a great beer.
