I could watch this all day

Last week I took a video of some WLP530 going to town on a tripel. My family thinks it looks gross but I just love it. It's like the star field screen saver only with beer and yeast.

Your family doesn't brew their own, do they!

We probably think it looks just as great as you do.

My wife brewed with me on this one, but tends to think of fermenting as rotting on some level and would rather not see evidence of it being alive lol.

I too find the fermentation activity mesmerizing. I was just watching my Bock doing the same thing. Sniffing the airlock is a close second.

Amazing to know it's alive!

I like seeing this, as I only have opaque fermenters. I've been thinking of getting an all-rounder for the transparency as well as ease of pressure fermenting and transferring.

It certainly seems better than screen saver featuring an aquarium or fireplace!

I've used a sanke keg a few times, but man do I like being able to see the action! It's also great for measuring the volume provided you a) place the sticker correctly by measuring and b) level it when you want to know the volume.

Hoping I was going to see the 10 hour video of Kate Upton dancing the Cat Daddy, but your video is cool too.

It needs sound!



Cheers!

Another one. This one uploaded directly thus not butchered by Youtube "quality"

Cheers!

The magic of fermentation never gets old. Just amazing. Thanks for the share!

One small part of the reason I ordered a Fermzilla on Black Friday.

I'm with you. Watching (and smelling) the fermentation is almost half the fun. All-rounders are great for watching what's happening. Tripels are notably fun to watch.

For me it's in the same category as growing things, only a little faster. But I like to look around in my garden, watching the leaves and blossoms grow, the young plants, following up their progress, raising them and harvesting them.

With beer and fermentation this is a bit the same, but also a feeling of: wow, I did it again. I did everything well and now its fermenting, or opening that first bottle and hearing it pop, wow, did it again.

My family thinks it looks gross but I just love it.

Don't let them know about yeast farts bread, bacteria infected milk yogurt/cheese, bee vomit honey, or tree sperm pollen.

Right there with ya

The only downside of a stainless steel fermenter is not getting to see the action anymore. I made a lot of videos like this one back in the day.
