Yes, that's the yeast. I think the probe read 21.3C when I found it.GuingesRock wrote:I think I used the same yeast and it went off like a bugger also. What temperature are you fermenting at Rob?

Re: Random brewing pics
How long has yours been fermenting, and is it still chugging?

Re: Random brewing pics
I made the starter on Thursday evening for 24 hrs, put in the fridge overnight on Friday evening. Decanted and pitched Sat lunchtime. By that same evening (yesterday) it was starting to heat up and I peaked under the lid. It was foaming up like yours. I have to keep cooloing it down with the built in tap water cooling coil. The frequency I have to do that gives me a feeling for how active fermentation is. This one is a lively one. It's still running on high octane.

Re: Random brewing pics
Brewed 3 batches, 25 gallons yesterday. About 70lbs of grain, and 3lbs of hops.
Porter, Apa, and double IPA. Wind was bad. I'm heading to Kent today to build a wind blocker. Burner got hot enough to melt the rivets out for the face plate. And the arsenide dumped the hop sludge on the lawn and not in the green bin lol. Good time had by all tho.

I only have like 35lbs. I can't top that, however I think I want more variety. However my grain inventory is pretty padded.RubberToe wrote:Jimmy wrote:I need a bigger hop fridge....
