    Would you use this yeast starter?

    This is a starter I made from stepping up a bomber of Saison DuPont yeast. I started with 200ml of 1.020 wort for 2 days, added 500ml of 1.037 wort for 2 days, crashed and decanted and then made this 1.25L starter with that slurry. Let that run for two days and then cold crashed last night. All...

    Wyeast Yeast Nutrient Blend

    Who uses this product vs other yeast nutrients? I seem to get extremely high attenuation, even when factoring in mash temp, grain bill, etc. I use pure o2 before pitching, but I don't have any other explanation. It dawned on me the other day that I use Wyeast Nutrient Blend on every batch...

    Dark Sour ideas (my first sour)

    I've been reading and thinking about jumping into wild brewing for awhile. I've found that I really like dark sours with dark fruit and wine and oak notes. Recently I had a Boulevard Love Child #5 and that has me motivated. I used themadfermentationist's recipe for Flanders Red Again for the...

    Mixing EKGs with American hops?

    Hey y'all, Trying to use up my 2014 hop stock and wondering if anyone has any experience mixing EKGs with American hops in an IPA/DIPA. It'll be a 60 min Magnum addition, followed by a huge steep and dry hop with some combo of Motueka, Chinook, Cascade, Centennial, and Citra. Wondering...

    Has anyone used Santiam hops?

    I've always used citrusy, American hops, so I figured I'd branch out a bit. The descriptors I've read are spicy, herbal and floral. I know Smuttynose Finestkind uses them, but I haven't been able to pick those descriptors out of that beer. I was thinking about doing a pilsner with them...

    Water minerals in carboy?

    Anyone ever add their water additions to their primary? I was just cleaning up and found my boil addition. The mash addition went in, but apparently the boil addition never made it... I was thinking I could boil a small amount of water with the minerals and dump it in when its cooled...

    STC-1000+ v1.07 with 2 probes

    For those of you using the STC-1000+ with firmware v1.07 and two temp probes, how are you using the second probe? My understanding is with the right settings, the 2nd probe can be used to limit temp overshoot. My question is what are you using for hy, hy2, delay timers and how do you have it...
