Re: Todays brew

Wow, I guess I brought back that nearly dead 1272 pack. Just 8 hrs since pitching and she is in full bloom damn near blowing the air lock off.

Todays brew

Just cuz I'm bored...

I put up an IPA try before work today. Everything went smooth. Amazing how few mistakes when you're not drinking. My steep temp held at 165f without change for the whole 30 min. No spikes like usual. Stirred in my lme and DME before crankin up the heat. That helped a lot. No ...

Re: What are you drinking now?

My ipa. It's a bit maltier than typical commercial stuff, but the big dose of Simcoe with its grapefruity goodness balances nicely.

Re: yeast starters

I had two packs of 1272. Popped one about 24 hrs ago. Still flat as a cat. The second one I popped about 12 hrs ago. It has actually puffed to about 4.5 cm. I'd say its about 1/3 swelled. I'll give it a chance. I'll make up a starter for it and pitch in a few more hours. See what I get.

Re: yeast starters

Bought two Wyeast American ale II smack pacs. Got home and saw the manufacture date was august 2012. Thought they'd be fine since they were in a fridge at the store. Nope! Both dead. I might have to make a trip to Odell and see if the lab will exchange for fresh.

Re: Craft v crafty breweries

Henry weinhardts in Portland, Oregon, claims "craft brew", but when you go through 10 or more 53' long trailers of bottles... You are not "craft".

So it goes it the promise land though.
