There are many situations in which a homebrewer might need to propagate yeast using more than one step-up – for example, building up from a bottle of commercial beer, or reviving a smack pack that’s several months old. And while I love Mr. Malty’s Pitching Rate Calculator™, doing two-stage starters with it can be frustrating. One [...] I’ve finished the last starter needed to round out my aeration experiments. Once again, the main post has been updated with the full data set and some additional thoughts.
Three of the four words on this tag are lies. On my recent trip to New Orleans, given that I was only traveling for four days, and not a women, I only needed to pack one bag. I elected to take only a carry-on – an easy decision given that checking luggage costs one-fourth as [...] I was able to brew the test beers for the Yeast Pitching Rate Experiment today. Some notes on the brew session can be found on the main experimental page. 85% efficiency on a 1.059 beer, though… I do love my Barley Crusher. Dear Hollywood, We have a lot of history together – not all of it good, but we’ve had some laughs over the years. Lately, though, it’s become apparent to me that we’re moving in different directions. I think it would be best if we parted ways now, rather than try to carry on in this sham [...]
Name: NOLA Click on this link to display the track in Google Maps. This link will be valid until Mar 23, 2010 5:47 PM PDT. Je vais voyager en Nouvelle-Orléans de ce soir à mercredi. Laissez les bons temps rouler! Most homebrewers, once they get seriously involved in the hobby, will make starters for their beers. While the commercial yeast products are advertised as being “pitchable”, their cells counts don’t allow brewers to inoculate a 5-gallon batch of ale at the industry standard rate of about 0.75 billion/L-°P. And the true cell counts may be [...] I really don’t know what all the fuss is about graphic design. This was super easy and hardly looks like crap at all. (It’s also an awesome example of your tax dollars at work.)
This gag would work a lot better if it was an actual pizza.
As a quick follow-up to my starter aeration experiments, I made up a DME starter for comparison purposes. As would be expected, it produced substantially more yeast than the sugar starters. So if nothing else, don’t take the cell counts estimated in the original tests to be accurate for beer – something I probably should [...] |
