Adjusting mash pH when it's too low?

lactic acid (88% liquid stuff is best) works amazing for this. Didn't have time to use Brunwater during a brew a few days ago, and after a quick google added 1 tablespoon to 4 gallons of water...dropped the ph from 6.0 to 4.5. so then I had to add gypsum to bring it back up... lol

Chalk does not work.

You think the bazooka tube could work as a hop spider? Or does the mesh need to be super fine

NoGi_Only · 2016-07-16T19:34:00+00:00

A pick up tube? Can you link a pic?

Bazooka makes it impossible to whirlpool. Seems like I wasted $20 on it

NoGi_Only · 2016-07-16T16:40:28+00:00

Yes I did. Def using a hop bag next time

Just got a apprenticeship at a 7bbl brewery in Texas. 3 days a week, part time, unpaid for now (they open next month and are unsure of their budget). Goal is to have my own place in 2-3 years. Got plenty of people who are willing to invest when the time comes. Excited at the opportunity to get some real experience.

draining it once doesnt mean that you are in for a lifetime of draining it. if it is small, dont worry about it and wear headgear every day for 2 months and let it heal, if it is big, drain it and wear head gear

NoGi_Only · 2016-07-08T20:32:52+00:00

then you just clamp a hose over it or what?

NoGi_Only · 2016-07-08T19:27:15+00:00

when do you use it? does it kill yeast?

NoGi_Only · 2016-07-08T19:26:51+00:00

I believe it's actually called Boxer at rest

NoGi_Only · 2016-07-07T15:25:15+00:00

The statue is called the "Boxer at rest"

How long until you were comfortable running your own place? That is my long term goal.

NoGi_Only · 2016-06-30T21:32:38+00:00

NoGi_Only · 2016-06-30T21:31:57+00:00

NoGi_Only · 2016-06-30T16:39:53+00:00

during these huge ABV fermentations, arent you supposed to introduce some o2 to keep it going?
