Re: My First Post! - Post here to become Fully Registered

Welcome to the forum SlamDuncan . Let us know if you have any questions. We would recommend using the BIABacus File with planning and conducting your brew sessions. It will make scaling up brews much easier. You will want to review the CBT (Clear Brewing Technology) Page as well. Let us know if you ...

Re: My First Post! - Post here to become Fully Registered

Hi Jerry / makfrag Welcome to the forum! The best way to determine your max brew size is to fill out the BIABacus file (Excel spreadsheet) we have and put the inputs of the beer you want to brew along with diameter and inside height of your kettle. The entire procedure...? We should have that in the...

Hello chayes (Chris), Welcome to the forum. Glad to hear you are back brewing again! I had done something similar when I brewed some from 1990 to probably late 1996, then stopped brewing until 2012 or so... Then after getting kegging equipment, and proving that I could consistently make solid extrac...

Hi DocAnna , Welcome to the forum! Thanks for posting enough info that we can see where you are coming from. It’s always interesting... Not just beer, but wine too. That’s cool! So you are brewing with a Robobrew/Brewzilla. Just pulled it up to remember. It’s one of those automated electrical system...

Re: Downtime

Great answer @ShorePoints! This is so true, and exactly how we as an online community stay relevant and helpful to each other and to other brewers.

Re: My First Post! - Post here to become Fully Registered

Hello gsoroos , and welcome to the forum. Sounds like you have some questions... The ball valve is most certainly not a requirement for making good beer. I have one with my setup and it simplifies some aspects of my BIAB operation, but is one more thing that I have to ensure is super well cleaned. T...

"high gravity beers without extra grain to compensate for no sparge. Other than that, I think this BIAB thing is pretty nice..." Hey David, I have a couple ideas that I want to toss out, in addition to ShorePoints' thoughts. We should confirm what you are using to track your brew day, and that you ...

Re: Batch priming

Hello jhough I am again going slightly into uncharted waters for me... If some live yeast remains in the bottles, and you should, likely you could add 1/8 tsp of sugar to each bottle and then cap it, keep at active fermentation temperature to get proper CO2. That’s what I would do. This is what I do...

Re: My First Post! - Post here to become Fully Registered

Hello mk1 Yes your methodology seems sound. Malt producers normally have a range of color and I always guess in the middle. You are unlikely to get more info in your shipment, but who knows... Yes hop AA always changes. Even same year different field the same variety can be different. I would run wi...

Re: Batch priming

Hey jhough , Good question! I can take a stab at it and give you my thoughts, as a person that always cold crashes...but kegs. (Manually add sugar to bottles, small amount of bottling that I do). At what temperature do you cold crash? I cold crash at 32 deg F / 0 deg C. Most of the sugar you added f...
