I confess. I am a hop head. Never thought I would be as for a long time I hated hoppy beers, because for a period there hoppy meant bitter. Then a friend gave me a Heady and the light bulb came on. I have brewed many hoppy beers since then, and I am still chasing the dragon on getting one that...

I have a 60 plate chiller that I love using as it cools quickly and makes my brew day a little shorter. I have always meticulously (or so I thought) cleaned it. Every brew day, I clean the entire system with near boiling PBW for about an hour while I clean and get fermentation started, and...
