BeerTools Discussion Forum

I think there are some yeasts that I must have to recreate some of my favorite beers. I can tell the difference if another yeast is used. So sometimes I just get the one I need and use a starter to get what I need. I agree that I shouldn't have to do this, and the vial should be enough for a 5 gallo...

It only gets better from here with kegs. I actually lager my Octoberfest in a corni to clear it. The tall shape lets any finings you my use to have a good effect. There is a lid you can buy to force carbonate in the corni also.

I must once again suggest a wit developed here on the forum with the beertools and multiple input from memebers that have been here so long we are calling them ancients.

Hi,

Look up a recipe called Beertools wit, it is my list under wit I believe.
I have made this one several times, one of our favorites.


Hope that helps.

Hey Tex, I had chill haze at first until I did two things: 1 I started to recirculate until the mash run off was clear and then send it to the boil. 2 I cold conditioned in a Corni keg, the shape of the keg lends itself to clearing out that stuff to the bottom quite well. I can now see the finger pr...

Go to Fisher Scientific, and bring a big wallet. Low cost and measuring device don't go well together.

Thats all I could find.

Hey, I looked up some of my on file recipes and found that they were 100% compliant when I made them but now the same recipe is now off. For example, Helles was 100% across the board but now my terminal at 1.014 is now too high which also makes my hop rate too high as a result of a high terminal gra...

As I taste each batch from my local micro brew, I began to see an increase in hop rates to the point that the standard brown could qualify as a pale ale. Working with hops every day must somehow build a sort of resistance to hop flavor and as the brewer tests each batch the hop rate goes up to suit ...

Welllllll nooow. I know you were in the same State as I (soberness) for awhile, but I am sure it is easier to drive from Indy to Greenbay than from Indy to Evantucky. Not quite, but at least I could use a highway someone has heard of. Anyway, I saw some rumblings about reviving the beer exchange tha...

I forgot to mention that I deal with morebeer.com from Indiana with good results with yeast and you should be 2 days closer for shipping!

They have the stuff dreams are made of, like that snazzy three tier brewing sculpture.

I wonder how far you are from Stpats.com and the beutiful Lynn.
I think this might be Austin?



Just a thought

Steve

Dang!
I was hoping to keep my banana Hefe secret safe.
When I ferment Hefe yeast at warm temps. I get my famous Banana Wiess beer.



Steve

Yea yea yea, Slow reply guy I know.

Can I come over if my Russian Imperial gets sewered?
Sounds like you got brewing going on and I have cob webs going on.
(In head and brew sculpture).

Steve

Well, I just took the Russian out of the basement after 9 months and put it in the frige to carbonate for two more. Since I haven't brewed since this beer it am hoping nothing happened.

I wanted to know if this is long enough aging considering how heavey this beer is at 1.110 and 14%ABV.

Steve

A lager and ale?
What tempreture are we using and what advantage have you been hiding from the group ehhhh?
