    Founders KBS Haul

    Sometimes you just get lucky. I was happy to get one bottle, but then yesterday I walked into a store and was very surprised to see 4-packs of KBS in the cooler with the other Founder's beers.

    Mistakes. Read one, leave one.

    I was bottling a saison and Belgian dark strong the same day. I used my auto-siphon to take a sample of the saison and then transferred the siphon directly into the BDS to to do the same. Yup, I transferred some 3711 yeast into the BDS. Fermentation restarted in the bottles....... boom!

    Do you Stir in your Priming Sugar?

    I never used to stir until I got a batch with very uneven carbonation. Now I always give it a gentle stir.

    Shipyard Brewery...you're dead to me

    What thermometer should I get?

    I use the RT600C for brewing. I have an older non-waterproof Thermapen I was using for brewing, but the moisture and sticky wort started to cause it to malfunction. The Thermapen stays in the kitchen now for grilling and I don’t miss it at all for brewing.

    What time do you brew?

    Do you keep ONE of every batch of homebrew?

    I saved a couple of bottles from each of my first 6-8 batches. These sat around for about 14 years before I opened them. Most of these didn’t hold up well. I had a sip or two of each before they went down the drain. Now, I will occasional will hang onto a couple of bottles for...
