Thanks to one of those stupid wine whip drill degassers my 6 gal carboy and most likely my stout are ruined. Damn thing is stuck in the carboy and due to the way its designed wont come out.
I echo a poster above why are you degassing beer?
If you were just aerating then get the damn thing out by any means needed and put it back in the kettle and bring it to a boil again to sanitize it. that is assuming you haven't pitched yeast, or dont have extra yeast on hand. I have had a beer that I was not totally satisfied that proper sanitation was insured and did a short reboil. It just meant a longer brew day but insured the safety of the beer.
I feel pretty stupid. After thinking about it just nowall I really needed to do was stick a wire into the carboy and hook the blades into the up position. Its out now.
umm. Shouldn't it come out when the blades are moved into the down position by pulling it out.all I really needed to do was stick a wire into the carboy and hook the blades into the up position. Its out now.
Congrats. Wait until you shoot a rubber stopper through that hole. I just conquered that today. :rockin:
