WLP090. Will be done & dropping in 3 days

If you use too much it does. The crayon softens the mix, making it more pliable & easier to open.

Here's a link with some more info. Play around with the ratio's to find what works for you. I find if there is too much glue sticks the wax can get too hard & be a bit difficult to remove http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/hot-glue-bottle-wax-experiment-127485/

I've done it a few times now using a mix of approx 50/50 of crayons & hot glue sticks. Works well.

I regularly use 200-250g of quick oats in my beers, & have gone up to as much as 500g on occasions. I've never found it to affect head formation or retention in an adverse way. I've actually found the opposite. It gives a nice big creamy, fluffy head, which is why I use it regularly. Would make...

A great solid beer that demonstrates simple recipes can sometimes be the most effective. Hard to believe its a SMaSH beer.

It's a very mellow & not as sharp as the wyeast strains. I've recently used it in a no boil BW. A nice big healthy fermenting pitch, with a 3 day head start before pitching Euro Ale. It has been in the bottle for close to 2 months now, & still too soft & mellow for my liking. I've since read of...

The DuPont strain is thought to have originated from a red wine yeast strain.

Just finishing off my last bottle from this swap. Kabooby's Sour Saison. Got a big whack of raspberry aroma when I cracked this open. Poured a nice golden colour, slightly hazy, with a nice head that has since disappeared. Carbonated on the low side. Get nice vanilla hints in the pallete, funky...

Just Danstars version of US05 / 1056 / WLP001 / Chico??

Yes... that's why he co-wrote a book with the owner of Whitelabs :rolleyes:

Have you used 3726 before Tony? I'm drinking my first attempt at using it. Farmhouse Ales state that Brasserie Blaugies ferment it cool, for a saison yeast anyway, at 25-27c. Mine got upto 24c & esters are on the subdued side. Has a nice profile though. That's a lot of Vienna, I'd be interested...

I grabbed a bottle of this on Tuesday & sampled last night. I struggle with the hefe, & wheat wine references.. but overall I find it to be a pretty damn solid effort at an American IPA. I've since purchased more :chug:

Displayed in the sunshine & heat of the front window?

Manticles Vanilla Bourbon Bretty Bruin. Nice deep redish brown colour with zero head (possibly a consequence of our dishwashers poor performance). It seems to have a nice level of carbonation happening though. Inititial aroma of berry, oak, & hint of acetic acid. A nice complex aroma. Tasting I...

Yep. Bottled in Mountain Goat bottles.

Closer to a Pilsner golden than a JS Golden Ale golden. I don't get farts either... just being cheeky.
