My bry-97 must have heard me talking about how slow it is because this is what I came home to, helped clear it up by spewing all the stuff out of the top! Still goin strong so hopefully I didn't lose too much yeast

I used a whole tablet in 1 gallon :/ scaled everything down in the 5 gal recipe except the whirlfloc...my clouds aren't even really swirling they do move around but it takes hours to notice a change, it's bubbling away though so I'm not worried. And seeing that bry-97 is a generally clumpy yeast...

Bry-97 + waaaaaay too much whirlfloc, strangest looking ferment I've seen so far but it is goin after not much action for 24 hrs.

Ha I sure hope so! I plan on cold crashing when fermentation is done to hopefully compact all that down. I haven't had a krausen form yet, lots of white bubbles but no normal beige colored foam. I have read that the bry-97 can take a very long time to get going though so hopefully it picks up...

I saw a couple threads about this but only found one person that gave the outcome of his beer. This is a hopslam clone recipe from this forum, my first time using whirlfloc (a whole tablet in 1 gallon :/) and bry-97 yeast (which after reading the thread on here, may have been another mistake)...

Www.homebrewing.org Real nice shop in Taylor, MI. Never had to order online myself but they're real good people everytime I've gone in

Thanks for the tips guys, this place rocks! I like the idea of just taking the measurement at mash/cool time and bottling time but also may have to pick up a refractometer, little more money and effort for from what I understand is a less accurate measurement but I'm not necessarily looking for...

Hope it helps you as much as it did me! I have a hydrometer that I haven't used yet, not sure if I want to risk pouring a sample back in or not, I know I definitely don't want to waste ANY amount from my already small 1 gallon batch. Does anybody have a method they use to test gravity from 1...

I'm a new 1-gallon homebrewer myself, 5 batches in and just about to be drinking my first (the warrior double IPA from BBS) for the Super Bowl. I also had to get a new stainless steel strainer since the one I had didn't quite cut it my first brew. I've also adopted a technique that I learned on...

At this point all my fermenting is happening in my basement where the temp stays in the mid 60s, I know the temp will rise during the first stage of extremely active fermentation so I'm hoping that they don't go high enough and/or long enough to produce much if any off flavors. I actually...

I just divided everything by 5 and ended up with 2 lbs - 2 row .4 lbs - Vienna .1 lbs - Cara-pils .1 lbs - Crystal 20L 1 oz of Centennial hops Your 4 hop additions at 60,15,5 and 1 minutes are all 5.6 grams (1/5 oz) and you should have 5.6 left to dry hop (which would be equal to dry hopping...

Brewin up a gallon batch of this right now

My first stout on the left and some hard cider on the right, got an IPA and the double IPA kit from Brooklyn brew shop in the bottles

Adventures in Homebrewing - Taylor, Mi www.homebrewing.org Real good experience when I went in there, haven't ordered online. I'll be making another trip this week

New to home brewing and the forum, got a Brooklyn brew shop kit for Christmas, warrior double IPA. Within a week of brewing that I went to a brew shop to make another 1 gallon fermenter and ingredients for a slightly modified dogfish 60 min clone. One on the left is the kit, which I am dry...
