    Brewtan B and Green Strike Water

    A few months ago I started using Brewtan B (high MW tannic acid) in my mash and sparge water. This followed a brief experiment with low dissolved oxygen brewing. Although I ditched the LODO process I decided to retain Brewtan B as it binds copper and iron which are catalysts for oxidation...

    Dedicated Braumeister Guide, Problems & Solution Thread

    I have found that sticking hose in the inlet or outlet is enough to dislodge any stray grain, so I no longer open the pump.

    Dedicated Braumeister Guide, Problems & Solution Thread

    I happen to be in the market for the new controller and have a perfectly good old controller, so may be a swap is in order (plus cash). How much cash do you want on top of the swap?

    Kolsch brew

    Tha description sounds familiar, almost text book BJCP. Anyways your comments come at a good time as I was think of using K-97 in a kolsch next week. Normally I use Wyeast 2565 or Gigayeast 021. A dry yeast alternative will be great. 12C seems pretty low though, I am go 15C.

    Very Large Starters

    What flasks do you have? If you are using fresh yeast ie. not from a previous batch, then you will get away with a lot less yeast than you have estimated are required. You may get away with 0.5-0.75 million cells / ml / degree plato which will reduce your yeast requirements to 750-1,100 billion...

    Very Large Starters

    I assume you are brewing a lager or big ale? What equipment do you have? Drauflassen may be a good option to reduce the size of the initial starter you need. http://braukaiser.com/wiki/index.php?title=Drauflassen
