Hello Anyone! Ya I'm a newbie, To this forum anyway. I'd like to know more about my local water chemistry. I went to the local water people, and they thought or at least acted like I wanted to pollute the system or get them fired. They claim there's no information for what I'm asking! WHAT @ DO ?

THANK U !

HEY ! I'm new at this, please tell me whats up with the refractometer conversion ?

I used a refractometer and I'm using a packet of S-04 yeast with a starter about 2pints of water and 2 tablespoons of sugar. This is a five gal batch and no bubbles for the last few days !

Thank U for that amazing quick response! And now one more question , I have a batch of coconut porter in the fermenter Its been eight days. Original SG was 10.48 and now is 10.30. That seems to me that the yeast is not working well! I just transferred to second fermenter garage temp is around...

So , What does one get if they use bread yeast for there beer ?
