    WLP644 -Brett B Trois

    Anyone mess around with wlp644 in secondary. I did a table saison with rye then split it, added mangos and then some wlp644 i had saved from a previous batch. Forgot about it for 2 months, checked it out yesterday and theres a pretty wicked pellicle on it. Should I let it rock for a little...

    Aged hops

    well since you plan on doing very small batches you wont need a lot of hops as you want very low ibu's. I ordered the lambic blend from farmhouse brewing supply that I plan on using in a couple of weeks. Already aged and only $3.20 for 4oz. That should cover your needs for a while and you...

    1" clearance enough for a wort chiller?

    WLP644 -Brett B Trois

    Well after about a month of getting my starter where I wanted it and not having time to brew, I finally got to make my hoppy wheat with the brett trois last night. Finished the brew around midnight and checked at 5am and the airlock was bubbling away. Can't wait for this to finish. What FG...

    Filling spigot hole on bb carboy?

    So I got a free 5 gallon bb carboy w/ a spigot hole. It didn't come with a spigot and I have no need for one. Anyone have any ideas how to cover the hole and keep everything nice and leak free?

    WLP644 -Brett B Trois

    Well it seems to be showing some activity in the bottom 2 inches with some slight bubbling on top so I guess that's a good sign. Can anyone recommend some hops to use with this strain. Going to make a pale wheat ale with cascade and nelson. Sent from my HTC One using Home Brew mobile app

    WLP644 -Brett B Trois

    Cool well that gives me some hope, was hoping to brew with this next thursday. I noticed when I swirled it in the growler im using that the foam would increase to about 2 inches and then dissapate to about a 1/4 inch. After doing that about 10 times over the course of a few hours there is no...

    Lactic acid starter funky smell

    Im interested to see how this turns out, so the idea is to pitch a small starter as a secondary? How long would it take to sour the batch?

    WLP644 -Brett B Trois

    Hmm made a starter last night and checked this morning and it had a thin layer of foam. I expected it to be going pretty good when I got home and it looks exactly the same, and the yeast seems to be sitting on the bottom. Sent from my HTC One using Home Brew mobile app

    WLP644 -Brett B Trois

    Just made a 1l starter with this strain and couldnt find the cap to hold a airlock that fits on a growler so went with aluminum foil. I used one step and threw the piece of foil in for like 10 minutes. Changed the color of the foil to a almost milky grey color. Anyone see a problem with this?

    Berliner Weiss, many ways

    Thanks for the advice man, think I'm gonna end up setting up a big tub of water to put the carboy in and try some old fish tank heaters to see if I can get that close to 100. Sent from my HTC One using Home Brew mobile app
