Going to get a 1332 Northwest Ale starter going for Saturday's Rye Pale Ale
Got home yesterday to find mold in my racking tubing (is there any good way to get all of the moisture out of tubing?) to drink during the Chinese New Year at my in-laws' place in the countryside.
Got home yesterday to find mold in my racking tubing (is there any good way to get all of the moisture out of tubing?). I had some extra tubing with a too-wide internal diameter for my autosiphon and too-thin walls to feel good racking the RIS that I'll be aging for nearly a year, so I just bottled the Imperial BIPA/CDA (I feel pretentious calling it a Cascadian Dark Ale, but Black India Pale Ale is such a stupid name...).
Measured my old tubing this morning and ordered some beverage grade tubing to replace it so I can hopefully bottle the RIS and Oatmeal Stout before the weekend. Hoping to do a session (4-4.5%) version of my "Can't Believe It's Not Bitter" IPA this weekend to drink during the Chinese New Year at my in-laws' place in the countryside.
Uhhh, drank some?

I always thought rinsing tubing out with Starsan to be a good thing after scrub & rinse. I hang'em on the edge of my drying rack to drip extra Starsan out before coiling up for storage.
This is what I do and it seems to work real well too. After cleaning everything on the cold side with Dawn, and rinse, then into the Starsan and hang to drip dry. Seems to dry quicker too.
