I agree with Quokka, I've only ever cold crashed by immediately switching the fermentation fridge on, so that it reaches 0 - 1 degrees as quickly as possible. Generally I leave it at 1 degree for a whole day, then gelatine for another day and it's as clear as any commercial beer i've ever seen.

I have been on the receiving end of stratification a couple of times now. I've finally learnt to stir my wort/beer prior to sampling for gravity, however I don't think it will be the last time i succumb to this!

Is KegLand actually going to respond to this thread, or just leave it up to speculation and hearsay by AHB members?

I have one of these heat pads and just put it in the fridge, if it's particularly cold I wrap the heat belt around and between the two of them I seem to maintain good temp control. The only other feedback I have is you have to really, really (really) tighten the tri-clamp fittings. I've had one...

I'll be there!

I just got the meat thermometer (number 2) a couple of weeks ago. Really fast temp readings (< 2 secs) from ambient to mash/boil. This is my number 1 thermometer now.

this is fantastic

Just revisiting this thread. After some research into using sodastreams/soda siphons to force carb beer (which seemed to be mainly negative involving exploding siphons or ruining non-glass siphons) I was dumb enough to try it myself. But, apart from a small amount of wastage, I found I had no...

I am loving these geology puns.....clearly someone has their dad joke licence.

Hi Will, I uae a long spoon to whirlpool then chill. Simply because I found it easier to get a good trub cone without the chiller in there. Then I gently put the immersion coil in. Worked for me!

Equal props to idzy on the brisket.......he put in the hard yards but then made the poor life decision and left us for some **** gig requiring a suit and tie.

I'll take this for a mate if somebody hasn't already.

Do people want veggies on Saturday night if AJ80 is also doing coleslaw? The reason I ask is the webber will be full of brisket so if we do we'll just need a second barbeque/oven to house the veggies. I'm happy to pick up some on my way down.
