    Pressure fermented Czech Pilsner wyeast 2278

    If you get the fermzilla all rounder, it has the capacity to get rid of trub on bottom as well as a floater so the beer transfers from the top. It has a screen to keep out any leftover hops, etc. You can pressure ferment in just a few days.

    Pilsner, fermentation under pressure, temp and pressure?

    If you transfer to another keg it should be great. Otherwise you will keep the trub? The fermzilla all rounder is inexpensive and works great. I made a yuengling for my nephew when he visited and absolutely loved it. Said it was better than the store beer.

    Kegerator (Beverage-Air) Question

    I purchased a bev air dual zone kegerator. It was not cheap. I was planning on kegging one of my beers today and went and got my five gal co2 tank filled. Much to my surprise when trying to set up the new kegerator, they have it set so you can only put co2 tank INSIDE and it is too small where...

    Adapter for my 220v g30 grainfather

    Great. You dont need ground. The plugs are grounded. I ordered adapter from amazon or walmart.

    Glycol chiller problems

    I had done all that yesterday. It is running. Yeast it pitched and it is holding the temperature for the fermentation. At some point I will need to go down to 50 degrees. That will be a good test of the chiller. The lagers will get colder.

    Glycol chiller and counterflow chiller?

    My temp is 1.4 degrees away for me to pitch yeast. I even have ac on 66 and it is still taking forever. But almost. Thank you for your help. I am excited about my new equipment. Wrote down what I forgot to do for next beer. Stupid things that made big headaches. I really want this beer to come...

    Glycol chiller and counterflow chiller?

    No, the fermenter comes with a box that is wireless. I was able to use an app and the brew walked through it with the app giving a beep when next stage was needed. QUite fun.

    Glycol chiller and counterflow chiller?

    Glycol chiller and counterflow chiller?

    Once the fermenter reaches the target temperature, should I then put the chiller target at 70 degrees as well?

    Glycol chiller and counterflow chiller?

    I set the temp on chiller to about 56. The temp on the fermenter is set to 68. The chiller is running again.

    Glycol chiller and counterflow chiller?

    Ok, will do that now. But the temperature is rising and the chiller is not running. Frustrating.

    Glycol chiller and counterflow chiller?

    Glycol chiller and counterflow chiller?

    I am a she. And actually, the chiller gives me a bit of a hard time. I had it at about 68. It isnt running so I am guessing it is set ok. And fermenter slowly coming down.

    Glycol chiller and counterflow chiller?

    What is TC? I have the temp on the fermenter at 68 as target. But it never reached. However, the chiller is now at 68. It is running pretty good now. But fermenter temp has six more degrees. Will the target temp tell the chiller to turn on? It stopped again. Its temp is 66 degrees. But fermenter...

    Glycol chiller problems

    I truly think it was empty! Not sure what happened. It is running and cooling quickly! Strange. I went and almost overflowed the tank. I am wondering if i did the priming correctly.

    Glycol chiller problems

    Yes, I primed it yesterday. Followed the directions and it worked. When I turned it on today to cool down wort it kept beeping a warning which I looked up and it said propylene was low. I added some and it turned on but only for a few minutes. I added again as it started beeping, turned on a few...

But the chiller has started going up in temp and I turned it off. I cannot get it to 70 so I can pitch my yeast. it is at about 76. I may just go ahead and pitch...
