Hey guys I’ve been planning on converting my system to an all electric rims system controlled via plc. I had a Micrologix1100 I originally slated to do the job but ran across a steal on eBay. I was able to purchase a nice stainless control panel with albeit older but much higher end equipment...

Was planning on brewing tonight and decided to test out my new grain mill. I conditioned my grain with about 2% water of the total weight and milled it up. It went amazing I couldn’t believe how well the husks were preserved. Unfourtunatly I’m not going to brew tonight and maybe not even...

Hello I just brewed a blond ale about two weeks ago and curious if this looks normal. This is only my second batch and I have never used this yeast before(wlp029). The beer doesn't smell bad and didn't taste bad when I took a sample 5 days ago. The white spots are what worry me but up close they...

Hey guys just have a quick question if this starter looks ok. I bought some WLP029 for a brew but stuff came up and it sat in my fridge for 3 weeks. Just made a starter yesterday and noticed shortly after pitching the yeast a substantial grey layer. I snapped some pics of the yeast today, as I'm...

Hey everyone just got done with my first brew last night(1:30am) it is a citra IPA. I wanted to ask some of the pros if it's normal to have this kind of action after 16hrs? I'm getting 2-3 burps per second maybe more in the blow off bucket. The yeast is wlp090 that I made a starter with the day...

Hey everyone just had a question about my yeast starter as this is my first brew. I made a starter with wlp090 that had a sg of 1.046 with a volume of about 1300ml. The yeast seems to be doing well and multiplying. There is almost no action if left sitting but when shaken a lot of co2 is...

Hey guys, i wanted to introduce myself and get some advice in the process as well as tell you about my gear that has a lot of history. Ive been wanting to get into brewing for quite some time but wanted to jump into all grain brewing from the start. I was fortunate enough to find someone local...
