Yes, I'm not sure how quickly,

Jack Keller's wine site had a lot of info on it. I think he also said most commercial yeasts are resistant to the sulphites, so they wipeout the bacterias and wild yeasts, but the yeast you innocuoate with doesn't mind

I've found the secondary to be unnecessary. I get clear crisp lagers without it. I like cool fermenting and I think autolisys is more of a concern at higher temps

Plus save time, reduce cleaning and lower infection vectors

I soak my hoses, both in cleaner and sanitizer, flush with hot water then hang on a hook from their mid point. They seem to drain and dry well that way

Commercial Brew vs BIAB brew for *exact* same beer

Thought this was an interesting linky Well on Friday I knocked out a 12 barrel brew at work through the night 12 hour shift from start to finish and then on Sunday used the same grain bill, actually also the same grain, kettle finings, water, water treatment etc.... and did a brew in a bag (net curt...

Make them a batch? have them pay for it's ingredients? Great idea .. and appoint them to the bottling duty! :) I'm actually doing something similar with some friends... They want in on the brewing/beer :) So I do double batches (ie 38L in a 60L), then keg and carbonate both. I bought a counter-pres...

Hi PP The only brew that I can remember without the " taste " was a Guinness clone that I did over 20 years ago. I was young and followed Dave Line's method virtually to the letter. The only major difference I can remember was that I racked into a secondary fermenter and rested for a week or two be...

hashie, what a brilliant post. I'd have that in a glass display case as I'd be way too scared to use it. Love the fact that you have the documentation as well. I have a 90 year old hydraulic jack from my grandfather but I haven't worked out how to use it in brewing yet :scratch:. Make a cider press...

It's a jiggle syphon isn't it? Yes, I think :) Unfortunately I didn't find any suppliers of stainless steel tube type auto-siphons, so this will have to do :) It fits into the end of 1/2" hose (or pipe?) (i plan to use it with heavy duty silicon hose) Inside it has a "hard plastic" torpedo, it lite...

I just received my S/S AUTO SIPHON HOSE TIP http://www.gryphonbrewing.com.au/store/images/siphon%20tip.jpg It says "KAF Safety Siphon" on it Looks the bees knees :) Just waiting on some silicon hosing I plan to use this for transferring boiling wort into an NC cube (and SWMBO wants it for her fruit ...

AFAIK,

k-97 is not available in 11.5g "homebrewer" sachets from Fermentis, but is available in 500g blocks for CraftBrewers

I assume craftbrewer.com.au breaks them up into homebrewer sized sachets, which is also why they do a bulk 500g packet.

My oldest stuff only dates from 1996 When I got one of the bucket-style Cooper's kits :) I had to throw out the fermenter... it started tasting plasticcy :( and SWMBO broke the hydrometer recently :( (my fault of course!) and I broke the spoon (makes a nice short one tho!) and the little bottler bro...
