What are you drinking now?

[WesleyS]

hmmmm .... this smells suspiciously like that canned pork product.

One more water ... then I just might have to try one of those CCB hopped on the high seas Caribbean IPAs

None of that. I have the Spidey Sense ... and it was tingling! :fro:

Drinking an ice coff from dunks. Can't wait for a beer been a long day

Having this while giving some bottles the ol' Oxy soak and letting my gelatin bloom in preparation for bottling an octoberfest-ish ale that I brewed for my buddy's house warming party.

That beer looks good as hell.

 

[Hello]

It wouldn't hurt to also GENTLY swirl (read swirl not slosh) the beer to help bring some of the yeast back into suspension. Just gently rock the carboy trying hard not to splash and slosh it around.

Once it warms up, you may also try to swirl it a bit (taking care not to splash it - just to get some of the yeast back into suspension.) And I'm definitely of the camp that I'd rather spend an extra $4 on a beer to have it ferment cleanly, so definitely go with 2 (or better yet, use the Mr. Malty yeast calculator to take the guesswork out!)

Also, I would try gently swirling the fermenter without splashing to get the yeast back in suspension.

Thank you all, even the smart ass.
It is getting a bit warmer and I took it out of the water bath because that wasn't helping matters. I definitely should have thought to just pitch two packets. It was not at all about the extra cash. I really put a lot of stock in what the LHBS guy said. He has given a lot of great advice but he can't always be right.

Drinking water still. Just placed my order for two 5 gallon bubblers from Norther Brewer, another BOGO offer and I couldnt pass it up this time!

Okay what? Link!
Drinking cherry coke from a late lunch. Picking up a couple of coolers in a bit then off to my other job-o.

It's very easy to drink, enjoyable.

 

[Hello]

Is it not socially acceptable to make a 6 year old who's almost 7 to get her own job? I mean she can read and do math. Kinda.:cross:

I bet her skills far exceed some of the people I run into every day at work.

Just go to the northernbrewer.com site ... it is on the main page in the slide show of offers that go by

 

[Channel66]

Also sign up to receive their catalogs, they run different deals in print sometimes as well. I never order from them anymore but I love getting their catalogs.

Damnit! I wanted to feel special and get a special link and everything! Edit, just what I need is more crap to make more beer. And I wish I could get a 5 gal and a 6 gal on BOGO.

Email/call them, if you buy a 6 gallon I bet they'd honor the bogo with a 5er

I've heard the dry yeast manufacturers underestimate cell count quite a bit. If you rehydrate, I'm pretty confident that one 11g pack is plenty to ferment 5.5 gallons of 1.067 wort.

Drinking Torpedo, had an 80 acre with lunch but need stronger stuff to get the kitchen floor clean. Doing it Cinderella style, well if Cinderella was a homebrewer and just sprinkled Oxyclean on the floor and then wiped it up.

Found a very promising location for nano today and although I'm not sure what square footage is yet, I think it's under 30 cents/sq ft which is dirt cheep. Place needs work, but hopefully owner will be amenable to reduced or no rent during the time needed to get the building fixed up and TTB out of the way. It's not in a scary neighborhood, but it's not great and I really doubt she'll get it rented to anyone else, particularly not someone willing to do so much to increase her property value.

That's exciting! Me and 3 other guys are starting a nano here but keeping our day jobs until we can expand and go Micro and we are in the process of locating our buidling also. Are you going to run solo? If so, I salute your testicular fortitude
