Anyone with experience on open fermentation and dissolved o2 of this? Are they allowing o2 from the atm to dissolve into the open fermentation , and allowing yeast to get to that at the surface and reproduce, somewhat preserving the below wort from oxidation, then moving to closed ferementation...

During open fermentation, alot of factors we control with closed fermentation are exposed. When a brewer uses this method, how are factors like oxygen, bacterial/wild yeast, etc dealt with. There are some big name European brewers still using open fermentation, i believe pilsner urquell and...

I recently switched from using sanke kegs to using ball lock setups. I have a small leak somewhere, but cant seem to find it. My old connections I had pex ring clamps, the new hoses have worm drives. Also in the end of the connector that screws onto the new ball lock post, there is a nylon...

Here are some pics of two experimental batches I have going. The yeast is the same, from the same smack pack. Difference between the batches is mash process, and OG. Batch 1 is 1.051 OG and batch 2 is 1.042 OG. Both started at 1.030 prior to boil

I posted this in another forum, but maybe a better question to pose here. For gluten free/ low level protein beers, what methods are used for a nitro style to achieve the texture levels/ cascade/ and head that a regular beer would have? Thanks

For making a nitro style beer, and getting a high level of texture and cascade, what role is protein playing in that, is there other things like maltodextrin that can achieve these results. For low protein level beer/cider. Thanks.

I was thinking about adding the steeping grains after flameout. I hop at 170-180 after boil and let sit for a while. I am wondering if I can add my steeping grains at around 160 and keep it at 150-155 for 30 minutes. I guess I am trying to avoid bringing what the steeping grains add to the wort...

So new here. I have have brewed a couple APA/IPA extract brwes not based on any kits. Completely different recipes for the two. One was done about two weeks ago another today. When transferring from kettle to primary I had used a sanitized paint screen bag to as a median between the two...
