I have materials for most of my future grain mill, but looking for where I can purchase rollers (3 bar or 2 as I would like to explore options). I don't want to buy a unit just to take the rollers. There must be a few component suppliers out there, just need help narrowing the search. Anyone...

Good advice Homercidal! I generally do the min requirements for oxygen, but this may be a good case for using the aeration stone and bottle of 02! Thanks!

I hear good things across the board with 1728 and appreciate the advice. I want to bottle this one, and "set and forget" for a year or so. I will add more yeast a few days prior to bottle, and hear that a nice long spell in the 2ndary is a good idea v/s rush to bottle . . .

Thank you for the advice! I have heard and read similar thoughts about WLP099 in that it does not lend the desired flavor esters. Ill research more on the 090 and being a fan of Wyeast, really look into 1728. I heard something about Pacman from Wyeast as well . . . .

Thanks Juan!

Good question! I found this . . . which helped me. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/nitrogen-beers-line-length-58878/

This really went well! Tasted best@ around ambient temp / slightly cool vs straight out of the fridge. Great color, yeast held to the bottom of the bottle (There is a name for that but its early :)). I will be doing this again for sure. Friends, family, and thirsty neighbors helped plow through...

Just ran across this great info. Hopefully your still out there for a followup. How long did you allow the process to take using the cab stone? hours, days?

Any tips for a Beer Gas connection in Kansas City? New to the area and wanting to fill my Nitro bottle (25-75). Don't have any connections yet. Any good tips are welcome! :mug:

So far so good! It requires such a long conditioning time that I have only been able to sample a bottle here and there to sample the transition. Yeast clears out really well. I am already a big fan and will try using 2112 again.

ustedes le hombre! 208!

Good stuff. Thank you. This recipe deals with the "steamer" approach using a lager yeast at higher temp. (Not a Cleveland Steamer lol) thank you for the advice.

Thank you RK. By "the lower temp" you mean the bottom of the yeasts recommended temp range? I want to say that I have not been bottling! It has become such a cumbersome process I sometimes procrastinate about bottling day. I will be collecting the supplies for kegging the next batch. I'll...

Biere de garde I have in primary right now calls for; Suggested fermentation schedule: -- 1-2 weeks primary; 2 weeks cold secondary; 2 weeks warm bottle conditioning (for carbonation); extended cold bottle aging. It uses; WYEAST #2112 CALIFORNIA LAGER YEAST. Optimum temperature: 58-68°F...

Advice on technique for this recipe? My first use of a Lager yeast (Wyeast2112) http://www.northernbrewer.com/documentation/allgrain/AG-BieredeGarde.pdf Clearly the instructions are . . . lacking! I followed the single infusion. The partial mash instruction calls for 2 months in the...

Maybe a stuck fermentation? What was the temp you maintained while fermenting?
