    Anyone else work in a lab?

    Hey all... I'm not entirely sure if this is the correct forum to post this in so feel free to move it if need be. I work in a lab as my summer job and we do a fairly large amount of cell culture work. This is the first summer I've worked in the lab after I started homebrewing and one problem...

    Pressure issues

    Thanks for all of the responses. To answer the question about the temperature, I had it carbonating at the appropriate PSI at room temp (around 68 degrees). When I moved it to the fridge, I dropped the PSI to 15 to account for the new temperature. Also, I've been measuring the fridge...

    Contamination??

    Thanks for the quick response guys. It actually isn't my first homebrew. It's my third (plus 2x Apfelwein). AHS directions are great and make the brewing a piece of cake. I used Wyeast 3787 which should have medium-high flocculation according to their site, so hopefully that is it...

    Contamination??

    Hey everyone. This is definitely not was I had hoped my first post would be about. Oh well. I racked my Quad Trappist Ale (kit from AHS) to secondary 4 days ago. I've been checking on it daily and everything appeared fine until today. I can't tell if this is contamination or not...
