    Brett Brux help!

    As of right now it has that layer of moldy looking stuff at the top (pellicle?) so Let's say I decide to package it in a couple months, should I not use a filter bag on the end of my siphon so I can let some Brett get into the bottle bucket? Or should I try and minimize it as best as I can so...

    Fermentation done?

    Hey guys, I've brewed an IPA using San Diego super yeast which I've used a bunch of times, and I let it go for 2 weeks then I add the dry hop. I took a reading after a week and the FG was down from 1.060 to 1.007. So it's safe to say it's done. If I take a flashlight to the fermentor I can see...

    Hop plants are dying!!

    I don't water every day, it's got plenty of sunlight. I notice when I dig into the soil it's usually pretty moist. Also I've seen these gross ass mushrooms growing from the soil..

    Hop plants are dying!!

    Hey all, I need help with my plants, 3 of the 5 plants have grown; the others are sleeping for some reason. But the onset that took off and we're looking really good are now slowly stopping and turning yellow and dying. Anyone know what's going on? Is it the soil or what?

    Pitching Brett + primary yeast!

    Hey all, I just brewed my first saison with a Belgian saison yeast blend from white labs, then added Brett brux in secondary just the other day. I ended up buying white labs American farmhouse ale yeast that supposedly has a little bit of Brett in it already. I was just wondering if it would...

    Is fermentation done for my IPA?

    I am kegging it. I plan on dry hopping in primary, since my secondary will be full. Should I still wait another week?

    Is fermentation done for my IPA?

    Hey guys, I brewed an IPA with white labs San Diego super yeast with an OG of 1.062. After one week my OG was down to 1.010.

    Which Brett for my saison?!

    After just one week in primary, my saison with Belgian/saison blend from white labs has fallen to 1.008. Does this seem normal? Should I wait another week, transfer to secondary then add the Brett?

    How do you start your Brett??

    Okay, what are your thoughts about mixing Brett strains together? Brett trois/lactobacillus or Brett trois/Brett c? Would you pitch half of each vial or both?

    How do you start your Brett??

    Hey guys, I'm planning on brewing a 100% Brett trois IPA soon and I've been reading around how to pitch this. Some say to make a starter 2 weeks in advance... Do I buy one or two vials then make make a 2L starter? Then Let it sit for 2 weeks ? Or am I able to just pitch a couple vials into...
