    HERMS using cooler, no PID

    I am just polling the community for opinions on an idea I had. I'm not sure if it's feasible, but is anybody out there mashing in a cooler and recirculating their mash through an electric HLT?

    extra yeast in bottling bucket for IIPA?

    Hey everyone! I'm a week away from bottling an Imperial IPA and I've read some posts on other places around the web about people having carbonation problems with >7.5% ABV beer. Anyone experience this? I also read some people use an additional half pack of dry yeast in the bottling bucket...

    will more yeast starter decrease time in secondary?

    Hi folks, I'm getting ready to brew an imperial IPA and the recipe calls for something like 2 months in secondary. I think I've also heard though that pitching a strong starter yeast, and more of it, might decrease the time necessary for aging. Does anybody have any experience or...
