    Turning your Fermonster into a complete closed transfer system for cheap!

    Great suggestions on the dry hopping vessel. One question, once the dry hopped vessel is filled, can I cold crash the fermonster without venting, or will this cause the vessel to contract and possibly crack? I guess I could always use the mylar balloon method to prevent O2 ingress.

    What do you do with your spent grains?

    I’ve been keeping our local deer herd happy and healthy here in Michigan. Those critters dig through 2 foot of snow just to get at all that spent grain. Kinda funny though, the resident ducks and geese kind of shun the piles. Oh well, always fun to watch the local fauna.

    Brewing with coconut?

    I have had success using sweetened coconut, toasted, and doing a double dry hop (dry nut) for about 6 days each. It imparts a very nutty flavor, increased ABV, and I get good enough head retention if I age the beer properly.
