[Hello]

Boulevard Saison Brett 2014. Had to do a continuos pour do preserve dregs for my unintentional sour. Poured that straight into the sour bucket. I think this sour may be good.

 

[Hello]

Hydro sample of sour.

 

[finsfan]

I have one but the readings I get are always so off from the hydrometer that I abandoned it shortly after purchasing it

Now thats strange. I assume you calibrated it?

I like the color in that! Do you have your unintentional sitting on fruit of some kind?

 

[Hello]

Yeah. Blackberry. It was made with a special yeast from Yeast bay. Harvested from blueberries. I used a jenky can opener for the blackberry purée which I think caused the lacto infection. I am excited. It's at 1.004 but I just tossed in those Brett dregs and will check it in 3-4 months.

just float it in some distilled water and correct it for temperature to see if its 1.000 if not you can just add X amount to the reading

I know you're smart, but I'm not going to float my refractometer.

 

[DisturbdChemist]

lol. I use my hydrometer for the FG and I love my Refractometer. I can never go back.

Im sure the refractometer wont float that well

Mine always sinks. I swear I can never get the sink or float science experiment to work. Had a floating rock too. You cant win.

Refractometer question. Mine works great as long as I measure boiling wort. As soon as the wort cools the readings get all jacked up. If I put room temp water on it it measures 1.000. So I just use my hydrometer still. Am I using my Refractometer wrong?

If i was the boss I would stop the meeting. He has to ask someone after the meeting to get the information. I havent experience that yet but i'm sure i will

The refractometer is less temperature sensitive. Plus it uses very little fluid and should cool off fairly quickly. So, boiling or not it should not have change. Next time give the cooled wort a mix and take. The sugars might have settled in the pot so the liquid on top has less sugar. Alcohol does mess with it but there are calculators online you can correct it. I usually just do a hydrometer to take that reading and to have a little drink.

I have noticed that it does change slightly with temperature. When I wait for it to cool on there it normally goes up a degree plato or so. Correct readings should be done around 70*.

On my 2nd home brew after getting some things done in the brewery.

 

[onetoeddogbrewery]

Water. Holy **** after watching all these videos about meetings I need some synergy or coffee to get through the rest of the work experience. Also so glad I don't work in the corporate world. I know why my dad drank so heavily when he used to get home from work now.

 

[Remmy]

Flocc work. It's beer time.

You took all those "borish palate" comments in a positive way? Like it was constructive criticism? We're all different I guess because I took them way different. I was thinking of the term someone used on here relating to head wear for the posterior.

My worldwide beer experience is limited, so it was a fair statement. Older i get the less personal i take comments.

Ten fidy goes with even the LPGA. 3rd beer today after sweet stout and simcoe IPA.

Double pour of my winter warmer earlier. Double pour of my best bitter while "making" dinner.

Still not sold on my apfelwein (like my fancy stemware?) but my house is all torn apart, leaving my beer shrine our temporary family kitchen, so I need some hooch.

Not your typical take on pumpkin beers - and quite tasty too.


And love the label

I had such a great lifting session today, I couldn't NOT have beer. Yep, that's the excuse.




There's also no way I couldn't go to-to-toe with coldcrash on a Thirsty Thursday.
