    Peek-a-boo diacetyl?

    second time I'm having this issue...getting a strong off aroma in my pours intermittently. It's pretty overwhelming, and very similar to what I assume is diacetyl--everyone has described it as either movie theater butter, or butterscotch. It seems to only be present in the first pour of the...

    Belgian Golden Strong questions

    Planning a Belgian Golden Strong for an upcoming comp. I'm figuring I'll go simple, and do Pilsner (15 lbs) with ~2.5 lbs or so simple sugar. Planning to use Wyeast 1388. I'm hoping to get this to be as authentically "Belgiany" (yes that's a word :D) as I can get it, and have a few questions...

    Lacto question

    ok...so I captured some wild yeast in the spring, and grew it up over the summer with some starters, and eventually used it in a test batch of brew (simple--just 2-row and wheat). It was a pretty neutral yeast, with similar to Wyeast 2565. Definitely no lacto character present. I harvested the...

    Stir Plate question

    anybody know if I can use a dimmer light switch in place of a rheostat to control stir speed? I've got a few sitting around collecting dust...if I could, it would make my build 100% free :ban: Thanks!

    Krauesening in keg question

    ok...I've got a dunkelweizen that's about done, and I was thinking of krauesening to carbonate. I've looked at Braukaiser's wiki, and downloaded his excel sheet for calculations.
