Has anyone got experience with WHC Labs yeast? The prices are very good, similar to Apex Yeast, but they offer some different yeasts. Anybody used them?

they got the AC atleast blowing into the dining area. ordered a bunch of metal ducting(exposed) and they are gonna run it this coming week once it is built. going to clean and service the mini split that feeds the brew area. restaurant was at 70 today when i came in so that is a win. got my...

fucking chaos today. came in and the AC was ALL turned off. inside of the restaurant was 94f. mashed in and then was told to dump the batch so that we could try to salvage the day(temp wise). Not the end of the world, frustrating and a waste of about 60lbs of grain, but so it goes. BUT i lost...

hell in 2 weeks you will be able to try the Hefe(packaged today), Blueberry, Red Lager(ale??), and the new ipa that i am dryhopping on friday! i will have rotated all 4 of my tanks close to twice in 3 weeks! including 3 batches of Lager! and you are more then welcome! just keep me posted! I...

I probably have time to make it into a lager. instead of an ale. what do you think?

the recipe you posted here is missing a hop addition and is only at 40ish ibus. generally speaking i try to build more ibus in the 15 min and lower additions to avoid the beer being overly bitter. It requires more hops, but that does not really matter to me at my scale. This is what i would...

So i think that this is where i am at for the Red Ale. I think that this will get brewed towards the end of this week(maybe friday???) what do yall think on this? https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/embed/1638741 I am also gonna brew my Blueberry Kolsch again! ill post that recipe...

Nothing concerning. sharing the actual recipe would make things easier feed back wise. Dont know that you really need dextrin malt, but it certainly does not hurt anything. what are your percentages? 62IBUs is probably on the high side for 6.5%abv. your 20min addition will be more...

my system has the basket submerged and it seals to the bottom of the kettle. it pumps from the outside of the kettle up through the middle and cascasdes down around the kettle. there is a temp probe in the bottom under the tube. the temp difference eventually evens out, but it has to run for a...

you will likely run into problems since you really need the temp and time for the enzymes to convert the starches into sugars. It sounds like you are trying to essentially "vorlauf" your mash. My system does this to some extent, pumping hot water up through the bottom of the grain bed and...

Posted about my brewsheets if anyone wants to use them feel free! I need to update them again now that i have changed my process a bit but i will wait until i need to print more sheets before i update them. https://www.brewersfriend.com/forum/threads/updated-my-brew-cellar-sheets.18519/

my fermenters are not too bad for being cheap chinese crap. The welds are very good(one of the owners is a sanitary welder in town and went over them top to bottom). they are 3.5bbl tanks but i can jam 4bbls in them as long as i use the second blowoff(not the spray ball). they hold pressure...

to be fair im a little different. some might call it special, i prefer to call it professional.

I do! but if it is a drastic change i will create a V2 V3 etc. and mark the original. I also write out the important stuff on my brewsheets and keep those for my notes.

well if nothing else so far it has shaved a ton of time off my day. already headed to boil...we shall see what the sugar gods gave me. edit 1 i guess a ton is relative. so far it has saved me about 35 mins but also my brew yesterday was very fast.... edit 2 preboil was .2p lower then...
