I am planning to start a small laboratory in my house. (an inexpensive one...on my table basically).
1st thing I'd like to use is test my beer with a growth media for yeast problems......after fermentation and after bottle-carbing.
Can anyone tell me a bit about these? How they are done....where shall I start?
I already have the book "Yeast" that has good info....but the all the items that are listed there are expensive.
I need a DIY style simple way to test for bacteria, wild yeast and yeast problems.
Thanks.
P.S. links to tutorials are more than welcome.
