Warm it up. The yeast says up to 58 degrees so try that.

A grainfather and you'll make great beer over and over again

Yes I have public water and I do have the MDC report. I was just curious if anyone from my town sent the sample into Ward Labs

Shot in the dark here. Has anyone had the water from Wethersfield CT tested at Ward Labratory? I'd pay you for the results! Thanks! -Jon

Don't turn your wort chiller on while you're brewing inside and routing the water out the window, then walk away only to come back and notice the hose popped off and your entire family's shoes, backpacks, etc. are soaked

Brewed it, loved it, friends loved it, will be my go to beer, a great recipe

I just began brewing and with a wife and two kids, 5:30 am is the way to go! Love early morning!!

Also, my brew day went pretty well for the first time! I took a few notes and a pre-boil gravity reading, just forgot post boil reading. Going to wait another week to take a gravity reading when I add the dry hops. Thanks for the encouragement guys.

Perfect guys! I'm down. The brutus 10 is a monster I'd love to check that out! I'm certainly down for a CT brew day. I've been messaging with another member from Willimantic who is into it as well. I was thinking we brew beers with our own equipment at a location and help eachother...

Thank you for your response pie. I am thinking that I am not calculating it correctly. The space I accounted for is the space below my bazooka screen that will not drain into the kettle. This water will be in contact with the grains, it just won't drain unless I tip the cooler. Sent from...

Guys and gals, I have about a gallon of deadspace in my tun. Beersmith is telling me to mash in a gallon over what I should be mashing with 12 lbs of grain. Is this going to water down my grain? Should I use more grain if I'm using more water? Beersmith is telling me: 12 lbs grain...
