another link quoting a guy who uses 2 1400 watt units for his AG brewing, they make them all the way up to 3000 watts. http://homebrew.stackexchange.com/questions/2223/using-a-induction-cooktop

well searching google i found this: "Q. Is induction cooking faster than other types of surface cooking? A. Yes. GE Profile™ induction cooktops heat faster than gas or radiant cooktops. Compared to a radiant cooktop (12 minutes) or gas cooktop (13 3/4 minutes), induction cooktops offer...

from the wiki... "To be used on an induction cooker, a cooking vessel must be made of a ferromagnetic metal." i dont know if it could boil a huge pot of water, it says its more efficient then gas flame or other cookers though so maybe it can. Maybe someone with one will chime in.

Leave it another week. High gravity and lower fermentation temps might be lagging the yeast a bit. Don't rush, I've made that mistake already.

you are doing a yeast starter right?

Well I was bored and took a quick sniff of the primary tonight, the apple cider smell is gone and its starting to smell like an ipa. 1 more week, then 1 dry hop week then bottle. Thanks for the help.

red hook long hammer ipa. Same price as bud light 10.99 a 12 pack @ rite aid

ya ill get a fridge for now, maybe later when i get a lot better at brewing and feel like attempting lagers ill get myself a freezer. Thanks for all the info

Ok guys thanks for the help, fridge it us then. :drunk:

so im looking to buy a used refrigerator or upright freezer. Which would be better to use with one of those cheapo temp controllers? Would the controller be able to control the freezers temp enough to not freeze my beer and shock my ale yeast? As you can tell im new to all this. I think i would...

pics or it didnt happen :P jk but no really..pic! ftw

Thanks! My job makes me break stuff to see and know how it works. That's why I ask weird questions like I do. Edit: and that got me thinking, will leaving the hops from the boil in the primary the entire time, will it cause the same grassy, vegetative taste?

Thanks, was just curious how the extra time would effect the beer

So my ph has stabilized, but my beer fermented hot so it has those apple esters in it. I'm going to leave it in primary for another 3 weeks. Will dry hopping now hurt the reduction of those esters? Is there any benefit dry hoping now opposed to a week before bottling? Thanks

i found a 3/4 fridge on craigslist right now im gonna go look at. 80 bucks. Ill try leaving this in the primary for a few more weeks, gonna screw up my beer flow but i guess that gives me more time to get bottles :)

I guess I need to find a fridge to brew in then, its too hot here and we don't have ac. Will that apple taste get worked out by the yeast or is this gonna be an "apple cider double ipa" Thanks for all the responses and help. I read "how to brew" but it left me with more questions then answers.
