    wrong yeast shipped, going for it anyway

    na its a partial mash, just 2lbs of 2 row. If I went AG it would be 12lbs. Im assuming s-05 is gonna have less of the esters that s-04 has, maybe a little less 'breadier' but wheat and rye might just make up for that

    When do I add the Pumpkin??

    If you're doing AG or Partial mash, the pumpkin gets Mashed with the grains (RICE HULLS OR GTFO) seriously... the pumpkin clogs up everything. If its extract, you can throw the pumpkin in the boil, strain it out as best you can, and top off an extra .5-1gal as its gonna displace a lot of the...

    Mice....

    I use the bottling bucket as my sanitization vessel so it ALWAYS has starsan in it, it just happened to be dry at that particular moment lol

    Mice....

    Its a white plastic bucket man, its way too hard to see if there are any micro scratches... but a good bleach soak should fill those cracks after some hours of sitting. Ill prob hit it with an extra starsan soak maybe at a little higher concentration

    Mice....

    So I went to the basement today to do nothing in particular (look at my fermenters for no reason) and I noticed the drop ceiling was down in a spot over my equipment... A god damn mouse fell through and landed in my bottling bucket of all places. Well, being a mouse, it did what it would...

    What dimensions should a closet for a chest freezer be?

    Atleast 3 dimensions... Unless of course you're trying to force it to accelerate through time unnaturally, in which case you're likely to need a 4th and 5th dimension

    So I'm brewing a blonde tomorrow...

    No secondary, No Starter, DO REHYDRATE (90*F) and good luck... thats fast, if you want it clearer maybe cold crash the last 24 hours before you carb it up

    oh DONT zest an orange peal into the fermenter, I did that also and it was WAYYY to tart, the orange flavor really took over and was almost unpleasant

    Coriander/Orange Peel Question

    for my blue moon clone I use .5oz crushed coriander and .5oz sweet orange peal, I did a 15 min addition and it worked but was a little too bitter, so I adjusted to a 2 min boil and let it leach the flavors after flame out during chilling, It worked great
