    Separating yeast slurry from trub through filtering

    That is a lot of work, I posted recently a technique for re-using clean yeast. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=583450 Basically yeast starter your original yeast and split it off, one to use and one to save. Another piece of equipment that can help (and I just bought) is the...

    Ohhh nice. Ya Green Flash is cool, they have a free bus that takes you to their experiment facility, "Cellar 3". Highly recommended if you like the more rare type beers, all barrel aged beers and sours. Also must recommend -Modern Times Brewery in Pt. Loma -Coronado Brewing (Knoxville...

    I need a lot of help.

    Look into HERMS or RIMS Systems. Your going to need (3) 20-25 Gallon pots for that size brew. A few Marsh Pumps.... Might be a good idea to have 3 different 5 gallon fermentors, gives you the flexibility to change the yeast profile or the dry hop flavors or fruit additions etc. You could get 3...

    Tavour is a website, you subscribe you like Groupon, they send you an e-mail and you say I want the beer or nothing. I went to AZ and checked out 9 breweries and discovered Huss Brewing for the Coffee Kolsch, EVERYONE was talking about that beer. I would strongly suggest The Beer Research...

    Muslin for hopsock?

    I use those every time right now. Can get expensive over time, and in IPA brews, will likely upgrade to a more reusable system in the future.

    Harvesting yeast from secondary

    The best way I have found is to brew a yeast starter, split it off, save and brew another yeast starter (depending on how many times you have split it off). Way cleaner and way easier than re harvesting and rinsing the yeast IMO.

    Adding Priming Sugar to Secondary

    Ok solid advice, I will definitely carry forward with the low amount of priming sugar and keep it closer to 24 hours. I would transfer to a bottling bucket but I am cheap and don't want to buy a new one so that is why I tried the "all in one" FastFerment. Hopefully it comes out just fine and I...

    I have finally joined!

    I am a big fan of beers with coffee, especially stouts and anyone who does it right (Huss Brewing, AZ with a coffee kolsch). I travel as often as possible to other cities for beer so I am in most appreciation of a unique style done well (wet hops in Denver). Many I.P.A.'s can taste similiar so...

    Adding Priming Sugar to Secondary

    So here is my situation, I have a 5 gallon FastFerment Conical fermentor, so far I love it, zero problems that I could not fix. I want to bottle two different beers, from the same 5 Gallon batch of Stout Beer. My original plan was to begin to bottle about (15) 22oz bottles, stop, pitch...

    I have finally joined!

    Hi all, Mike from San Diego. Been brewing for nearly 5 years with a few breaks here and there. Scaled up quickly in the beginning and 10 gallon batches were too much for one man. Getting back into it and ready to make some seriously good beer. I figured now is the time to join to get...
