    When is the last chance to mechanically degass

    When is the last possible time to degass with one of the mechanical vacuum (electric, mityvac or vino-vac) methods of degassing before bottling? I have degassed by the vigorous mixing method (paddle stirrer on the end of an electric drill) added the K sorbate and K meta and the F-pack to the...

    1st AG - stuck fermentation and off taste

    So what is he left with, a bad tasting, sweet beer? Is it drinkable? Should he mix it with PBR :)? I have the exact same problem but now I understand how to keep it from happening again. Unfermentable sugars suck...... I pitched a second packet of yeast (Notty this time) still nothing...

    This forum is so necessary

    What do you guys want? This is a guy who just wants to de-mystify cooking.. If ALton can do it anyone can. At least he used a lid and an airlock. I figured he would just put a cheesecloth over the top. If I were you guys, I would probably be thanking him for spreading the word.

    Pictures of your Hop Babies/Hop Photo Thread

    Geez Ben, I know you said your Cascade crown was throwing cones but c'mon. If you weren't married to my daughter I'd probably feel like kicking your butt for making my hops look puny. Hell even your first years look good........ At my place the Cascade is still the best looking and probably...

    Fantastic deal on turkey fryer!! (for boiling wort)

    Just did our first 5 gallon boil in the fryer last Saturday. Same problem, no way to cool the wort. However 2 large bags of commercial ice and a 6 dollar plastic trash can worked wonders. We dumped about 1/2 a bag in the bottom of the trash can and lowered the fryer into it then placed ice...

    Steaming oak chips

    What is the problem with using sanitizer? If you use a no rinse sanitizer on all your equipment and bottles anyway, you are likely going to have more residual sanitizer left on the equipment than in the wood chips. It seems baking (toasting)would be ok if you want a smokier flavor but I buy my...

    In Contempt of Extract

    I don't understand the question:confused: I challenge all of you across the country to do blind taste tests and report the findings. All the samples must be bottled and coded so the scorekeeper is the only one who knows if the beers are AG or Extract. There are only two scoring criteria...
