I acquired a huge 7 circuit plate chiller. I will only use 3 circuits for now but I had a hard time finding a cooler that wasnt too large. I thought I found one but its angled on the insides and the chiller will only on a slight angle. Will this cause any issues?
My neighbor has a pear tree and doesn't usually do anything with them. I could use them sanitize them and such, but am more curious to doing a wild fermentation with them. Any pointers would be greatly aprreciated.
I want to add a sweet grapefruit syrup to a Citra wheat and I want the finished product to stay that way. Can I stop the fermentation like you would with wine before adding the syrup since I will be force carbing?
Cold brew coffee in secondary. If I cold brew coffee does the water need to be pre boiled or just sanitize the container to hold the coffee and water. I've seen many ways of adding coffee after primary I am just concerned about infection.
I've kegged a couple beers now and bottle some using a beer gun. My question is can I keep the beer I bottled out of the fridge? I like to give some away but I am always afraid to let it warm up.
I have a couple questions, first how are so many breweries selling pumpkin beers already when pumpkins are not in season? Are they not using pumpkins and going right for the canned stuff?
My next question is most say they have a crust flavor are they using some sort of extract or actual pie...
What style and will you use real, canned pumpkin, or none at all?
I'm planning on doing a Pumpking clone with a family member. Tried it last night for the first time it is pretty good! Going to use real pumpkin.
