    Straining Ginger Beer

    So I finished my first GB without straining and had some problems. I am using the Firmzilla and there was so much solids that it took up allot of the fermenter. So siphon tube ended up in the solids and blocked up the ball lock disconnect. Next time ill strain at least some .

    Straining Ginger Beer

    So no bad side effects frome the ginger being in contact with the yeast?

    Straining Ginger Beer

    But my point is, maybe you don't need the biab bag if it all drops to the bottom by the time it finishes fermenting. And, might get some more flavour out of the ginger while it's fermenting.

    KegLand Questions and Answers

    When using the Flow Control Ball Lock Disconnect what size tubing (4mm or 5mm) and length is optimal? Does CO2 come out of the beer in the lines when sitting for a while, because of low pressure? Then when you go to pour, this separation causes spurting and foaming at the tap? If this is the...

    Ale yeast + Lager

    I pressure ferment between 10 and 12 PSI as soon as that pressure is built up it starts venting and continues to vent throughout the ferment, so gases are escaping. whether it's produces less or more of some gases because under pressure, I guess is the unknown. All I know is I've been brewing...

    Ale yeast + Lager

    My basement sits at around 18-20 degrees which is great for ales but i want to try a lager as summer approaches. Can i put a ale yeast in a lager and if so what would the disadvantages be?
