    Using Pilsner malt with a condenser lid

    Biggz - Thanks. I am going to take this off topic as, well, I am the OP. What have you observed with boil off rate? I use Beersmith as my brewing software, what kind of adjustments need I make?

    Using Pilsner malt with a condenser lid

    Greetings There has been plenty of discussions on boil rate when using Pilsner malts. After my brewery remodel I will now use a condenser lid on my boil kettle. Am I going to have issues with DMS when I use Pils?

    ferment chamber - space heater...Safe??

    The yeast tell you at what temperature they are happy. Experiment with the least expensive heat source solution for your chamber. Trust yourself. And of course the yeast.

    What I did for beer today

    Moved some of the Irish Red I brewed last month to the bottle. I usually keg the first five gallons and keg the rest. As I had been consuming 2L soda bottle samples I thought I may have removed more than I thought. Bottling over three cases is not what I intended. Beginning to plan my steam...

    Bottling from 55L fermzilla

    Every batch I make is sour

    Maybe it is the prehopped kit. Try an extract from a different source company. Then brew it only after you have sanitized per above.

    What came in the mail for you today?

    I wanted to try out some brewing gloves. To get free shipping I socked up on supplies I go through regularly. I will brew a 12 gallon batch and keg five. I then bottle the rest using carb tabs right from my conical.

    What to do with standard upright fridge/freezer

    I converted a refrigerator into a fermentation chamber years ago. I added a stand of roughly 15 inches or so. Upon that secured stand sits my conical. Once I am ready to package my finished beer that extra height allows me to bottle and fill kegs via gravity. I have a computer fan that sits on...
