When I plugged it in, I noticed these gaps in the door gasket. I did keep the plastic rim that fits inside the gasket in tact to try to...

    Growing hops in raised beds...

    I just meant that I need to see if these beds get the proper amount of sunlight. I am growing cascade, which apparently can grow and do quite well in this area.

    Growing hops in raised beds...

    Provided that these beds get enough sunlight and that I build a support for them, will these beds be good for growing hops? I have 2 "jumbo" rhizomes and 6 small rhizomes. http://i.imgur.com/oAyiLPQ.jpg

    Problem with primary fermentation?

    Brewed a SMASH on Sunday(2/10) and I have had good airlock activity since late sunday night until today (Wednesday 2/13), but the krausen seems to have a somewhat "crusty" layer on top. Is this an issue? I used US-05

    dumb bottling question

    I was going put them in for the sanitation cycle before bottling. They were rinsed out after being drank port of, so they aren't that dirty. Just trying to cover all my bases

    dumb bottling question

    I'm getting ready to rack my first all grain batch, and I'm getting a head start on prepping my bottles. Is out good practice to wash the bottles in the dishwasher a few weeks in advanced? I want sure if the detergent would have a negative effect on the beer.
