    Cold crashing rate

    For ales I generally do it in two steps. Drop to 11-12°C in the first step, then down to 0-1°C. It takes about 12 hours to get down to temp, each step ends up being about 24 hours by the time it gets down to temp then get home from work/remember to start the next step. Couple of days to a week...

    Bad stir plate - disaster

    You could try installing a thermal switch inside the stir plate that will cut the power to the element if it gets above say 20°C. Depends on how much room is inside the stir plate.

    how long to get banana from 3068?

    To get the Banana to come out you need to stress the yeast, under pitch or ferment warm (22°C approx). Since your 48 hours in you probably won't get many more esters but try dialling the temp up a bit and see what happens. From memory the ester's happen in the first 36ish hours of fermentation...

    Hybrid BIAB setup advice

    I grab a cake cooling rack and stick it in the bottom before I mash in, holds the bag off the bottom quite nicely, but because I'm paranoid I usually hoist the back up a bit as well whilst I apply the heat. The only major recommendation I have is do a mash out and get a nice pulley set up if...
