    What makes a clone a clone?

    What justifies a clone beer? In particular in regards to a clone recipe kit for entry into a competition. If i used a different yeast strain or a combination of yeasts, is it a different beer? Should it be entered under its bjcp style? Or is it still a clone. What if the hops are changed? Etc

    Biab with blichman boil coil 120v?

    Ebiab is the way forward for homebrewin my man. I sit on the couch for most of my brew. I ended up going with a cheaper 120v heating element that i used with a brau-supply 120v controller. Brau supply make a nice solution that you can buy ore built. I basically took their concept and built my...

When designing my own recirculating system i out a hole in the wrong place and i clogged the whole using a close nipple...

    Where can i get this part online?

    This is useful but the idea is to not have to open up my controller and rewire it. My controlled has a 4 prong input. So ideally if i did have to solder something it would be a double ended 4 prong quick disconnect wire that connects the controller to the sensor. If i replace the sensor and wire...

    Yeast starter wasted?

    I made a yeast starter with London ale 3 which is fairly rare these days. Then before I began brewing my heat probe broke on my electric setup so I couldn't brew. How do I save this yeast. I don't have any experience with harvesting or storing yeast. Cheers

    Ground up my flaked oats

    I accidentally put my flaked oats and golden naked oats thought the milling machine. It's mixed with the rest of the grain. No going back now, what do we get from flaked oats. Fermentable sugars? Flavor or mouthfeel? Are these qualities going to be less than planned for? How can I counter this...

    Fermenting in a large vessel?

    I can never get a tight fit with the carboy cap without taping the cheap out of it. That's why I use a blow off tube. I guess my question is also, will a blow off tube setup with a 5gall carboy ferment as normal with a 2.5gallon batch ?
