    How much difference can 91 ppm of bicarbonate matter?

    Sounds interesting. How do you do that exactly?

    How much difference can 91 ppm of bicarbonate matter?

    I'm brewing a German Pils and going for a crisp hoppy finish, so I am trying to match the "Yellow Dry" profile in Beersmith, Ca 50, Mg 10, Na 5, SO4 105, Cl 45, HCO3 0. However, my home water is pretty far off from this: Ca 35, Mg 9 Na 69, SO4 22, Cl 83, HCO3 91. With salt additions of gypsum...

    Banjo burner is driving me crazy

    That's the burner I am talking about. I thought the regulator might be the issue, so I disconnected and reattached it to reset it, several times actually. I even tried a different regulator that I know works well. No change.

    Banjo burner is driving me crazy

    I recently bought a used bayou classic banjo cooker and tried it out for the first time today. It didn't go well. It would not stay lit and the flame never seemed to come out of all the holes on the burner, but only in small sections. If I hold a lighter on it, that area will ignite, but only...

    Any Lallemand Philly Sour feedback or experience to share?

    I was chatting with a very helpful rep at Lallemand today and she had similar recommendations. She recommended adding dextrose or another yeast to finish it off. Apparently this isn't an uncommon scenario. After ruling out high mash temp or other nonfermentable scenarios she said "The only other...

    Any Lallemand Philly Sour feedback or experience to share?

    My test batch with Philly Sour seems to be stuck at 1.020. Anyone else having this problem? I brewed up a sour NEIPA 17 days ago. My OG was 1.056. I fermented at 72 degrees for 10 days and was at 1.021. I moved the fermenter to warmer 75 degree space for another week and it only dropped to...

    Good to know. I've never done a protein rest and now I never will.😊

    Can you make a clear oat beer?

    I just brewed up a recipe with 28% malted oats. I wasn't planning to follow my normal procedure and clarify with gelatin since I assumed the oats would create a permanent haze. Is this true though? Can you make a clear oat beer?

    4 tap kegerator - what are best practice for outside CO2 lines?

    I like this holder. Did you buy that or make it?

    4 tap kegerator - what are best practice for outside CO2 lines?

    Thanks for the info. Is the reason for keeping the manifold outside to limit the number of holes drilled in the side of the fridge?

    4 tap kegerator - what are best practice for outside CO2 lines?

    I recently converted an old fridge to a 4 tap kegerator. Currently, I have the CO2 tank and the 4 way manifold (Gas Manifold - 1/4 in. (Aluminum)4 Way) inside the fridge. On the occasions when I actually have 4 kegs on, it's very tight in there and difficult to access the Co2 regulator and...

    Adapter for Vintage Tap Handle?

    Has anyone had any experience with adapting vintage tap handles that don't match current standard US faucets? I picked up a tap handle that looks like it's from the 40s or 50s and the thread is too big. It's 5/8 18 thread as opposed to current standard 3/8 16 thread. Was hoping I could piece...
