    Yeasticide

    From what I understand the way this is typically done in commercial cider/wine etc is the use of preservatives to kill or make yeast sterile such as Potassium Sorbate (202), Sodium Metabisulphite (223) or Potassium Metabisulphite (224). These are usually added to the fresh juice prior to...

    Hydrometer table has changed

    That's a great example of "Mandela Effect" residue!! Or more likely it's one of MHB's previous explanations...

    New research on dry yeast

    I've always read and understood to just rehydrate using only sterile water, but in the latest US-05 spec sheet linked by MHB in the pitching with prior rehydration instructions it says "Alternatively, sprinkle the yeast in minimum 10 times its weight of sterile water or boiled and hopped...

    All Grain - is it substantially better beer?

    It is relevant if you are practicing low dissolved oxygen (LODO) brewing techniques through the entire brewing process.

    Sterilizing

    Starsan, with maybe a boiling/boiled water rinse depending how time poor I am, is how I roll - not that I really bottle much anymore.

    Control box - test - fail

    Forget testing voltages, or powering anything on yet. For now you just want to check for continuity and for shorts. Your meter should have a continuity test mode which will be like a bell or sound type symbol and will make a beep whenever you complete a circuit between the 2 probes, if there's...
