I can't believe the yeast cares whether it is in a >> gallon of wort or an ounce. >I don't agreee with this statement. If you pitch a wyeast packet into a 12 oz starter, wait one day, and then pitch to the fermenter, it seems to take off faster than just pitching into the fermenter directly, plus the extra day. I was just speaking intuitively and suggested controlled experiments to corroborate the hypothesis. I don't doubt your experience, I just can not hypothesize a cause and this.... >i.e., If you dilute yeast too much, they seem to slow down more than proportionately. ......isn't very scientific. Your experience could be the result of: Temperature variation Different Nutrients in starter/wort Barometric pressure Being correct in your hypothesis I am not sure why one would want to go directly from petri dish to the wort because for the same amount of effort you can make dozens of slants for future use. On a slightly different subject, I pure cultured a granule of Red Star Champaign yeast for my dandeline wine and it worked out real well. It was down to 1.010 ten days ago when I racked it but it is still blurping every 5 seconds. I find it very satisfying to take a cheap dry yeast and turn it into a pure, single cell culture. It's sort of like the guy who bragged about building his own maltmill for only $12. If anyone would like a re-run of my simplified yeast culturing article, I will be happy to mail it out.

Write me if you need the address, phone number or price. Funny you should mention Semplex. In the 60's, they were about the only mail order house in the country. My ancient catalog lists them at at $1.29 ea or 3 for $3.25. You might want to verify the price :) They also show a fruit crusher for $55 and a fruit press for $31.90. I have been drooling over the crusher at my local homebrew shop but the $250 is a bit more than I want to spend.

Date: Wed, 20 May 92 08:35:58 -0400 From: Richard Dale <rsd at silk.udev.cdc.com> Subject: RE: Ball lock vs pin lock. I own both. I find that the ball lock is much easier to dismantle than the pin lock. The ball lock fittings can be easily removed/installed from your kegs using an ordinary deep socket. (Some require a 12 pt socket) It's fast and you have good control over torque, etc... There may be a special tool you can get for removing/installing pin-lock fittings from/on your kegs but I don't own one or know where to order one. I do it by working with an open-end wrench through a handle slot, doing the "turn your open-end wrench over every 30 degress" technique, with the wrench wedged in at kind of a funny angle. Not as good. Maybe I'm doing this wrong, someone tell me. - -- Richard Dale rsd at silk.udev.cdc.com (612) 482-6588 Return to table of contents
Date: Wed, 20 May 92 9:13:39 CDT From: jmiller at anubis.network.com (Jeff J. Miller) Subject: Mega Batch - long Sorry this is so long but I'm a wordy person I guess :) Congrats Warren and welcome to the world of Mega BREW! I cook in an old piece of dairy equipment that is a little larger (60 capacity) so perhaps some of my experiences might help. > This is it, my brew buddy and I are ready to take the plunge into > some larger batches, we have aquired a nice 40-45 gal. stainless steel vat > from a nearby dairy, even has a stirring wand in it !! The stirring wand sounds like a great addition. The big problem with large batches is getting all that mass up to temp. Constant stiring is a requirement to avoid excessive heat spots (burn wort!). > We have a nice pump > to help do the sparge and as of this moment we have four 10 gal. milk cans > to be used for something ?? We also have a Creole Cook'r and a 100lb. > propane tank. I hope this pot has a spigot on it. The pump would probably be a hassle if you had to lift the wort out of the pot but this is just an opinion, try it and find out. Seriously, if the pump will work for you it should make life LOTS easier. Without the pump you will end up with lots of intermittent carrying and holding containers. The milk cans might work for this but I would bet that 10 gals will be too heavy for you to deal with over a long brew day. Perhaps the cans might work for fermenters that you can siphon out of (put them high when you start ferment so you don't need to move them later). When heating your pot, check for hot spots and be careful of burns. My pot is insulated with fire brick but because its been around the block so many times the brick is in a sorry state and this causes hot spots in odd locations; I have been burned more then once by these hot spots. > So I would really like some input from all of you on how > much grain, hops and so forth we would need for a batch of this size. > As of now we are still doing 5 gal. batches, so we use 1.33 qts. > of water per lb. of grain, if we use 10 lbs. of grain we mash with approx. > 11 qts. and use around 5 gals. of water to sparge with. So if we want to make > 30 gals. of beer do we just use 6 times as much of everything ?? Yup! About the only things that won't scale up real weel is hops. I'm a hop head and I notice that for a 20 gal brew I hop at about 3/4 the rate I do for a 5 gal brew. You may want to watch the thickness of the mash also. When I mash I usually use much more water then most so I'm not sure how yours will scale up. The important thing is that 60 pounds of malt is a lot! > Any ideas on how to crush the grain ?? We've got some cleaning to do > so we probably won't > try it for another couple of weeks or so. Any suggestions would be greatly > appreciated !! I can honestly say I've never REALLY worried about any of > the 5 gal. batches before, but I am getting a tad worried about 30 gals. of > brew, I'm sure once I see and smell 30 gals. of black as night stout, I WILL > relax :*) You NEED a motorized grain mill (Jack can probably help). Some suppliers will mill for you but if you walk into your average homebrew shop and ask for 60# of milled grain I doubt that you will get a very good reaction. A nice kicker is that when you buy this much grain at one time you do get some nice price breaks. Something you should think about is how your going to get all that grain out of the pot (I'm assuming your mashing and boiling in the same pot). If you need to sparge off the grain and hold the wort until you shovel the grain out of the pot you are going to need lots of holding vessels and you will add a significant amount of time to the brew. Grain bags are nice but you need a whole lot of them for 60# and I'm not sure how they would work with the stiring mechanism. I currently use a stainless mesh bucket that fits inside the kettle. When the mash is complete I lift it out and sparge through it. This works great but I am still working on ways to get better efficiency. Do you have cattle around? Getting rid of 60# of grain will be an experience. You can compost it but you better have a big pile if your going to brew more then a few times a summer. Fermenting this much beer is interresting. If you do this indoors, watch for excessive CO2. You may want to open a window at the peek of fermentation just to air out. I think fermentation in a single vessle is the way to go. I use a barrel but I think a garbage can would be easier. Planning is the key; put the fermenter where you can siphon out of it without moving it. It is damn difficult to move 40 gal of beer. Oh yea, when I first got my cooker I used to use it as a fermenter also. It has a lid but it is not an air seal. This worked great until I got an infection; I don't ferment in it anymore. If you don't have one yet, get a kegging system! I always like to 1/2 a batch in bottles and 1/2 in kegs. Sure makes bottleing day go faster. If you don't have a chiller - get/make one. Be VERY careful about infection. Loseing 5 gallons is a bummer but it really hurts on a big brew. First batch: I would suggest starting with an extract batch in the 10 to 20 gallon range. This will get you used to the amount of water that your going to be using as well as get you used to some of the logistics of using this thing. After doing a brew like this you will get a better feeling for time frames, hop rates, and all sorts of things that you never thought of. After you conquer these problems then you can add grain and feel like your starting the learning curve all over. Get a stick or some other measuring device. It is very difficult to look in a large pot and know within even 5 gallons how much is in there. > Yes I can hear it now : > > Me: How many pounds of Northern Brewer do you have ?? > >Homebrew Supply : Do you mean pounds or ounces ?? > > Me: You heard me right, I mean pounds !! > >Homebrew Supply : Uh, okay, let me check !! > > Me: Great, you don't happen to have a pallet of grain !! Grow your own hops! If you can get bulk extract/grains from suppliers your costs will be greatly reduced. The only thing I can't get cheap from suppliers is hops. Since you have allready figured out that your going to be using pounds instead of ounces, growing your own is about the only way to brew and keep costs in check. You might be able to check bakery suppliers for a source of bulk extract. If you happen to have a malster around you can sometimes bring them 5 gallon buckets and some homebrew and get a great deal. Or... you could join/start a club and supply most of the need for a true pallet of grain purchase :) Good luck! - -- Jeff Miller Network Systems Corporation Internetwork Group 7600 Boone Avenue North jmiller at network.com Minneapolis MN 55428 (612)424-4888 Return to table of contents
Date: Wed, 20 May 92 09:07:36 MST From: CITJLF at ARIZVM1.ccit.arizona.edu I FINALLY RECEIVED THE MARGA MULINO GRAIN MILL AS A WEDDING PRESENT AND USED IT FOR THE FIRST TIME A FEW WEEKS AGO. I AM QUITE IMPRESSED BY THE QUALITY OF THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE MILL AND WITH THE WAY THE THE GRAIN WAS CRUSHED WITHOUT CREATING ANY FLOUR. MY ONLY PROBLEM WITH THE UNIT WAS THAT I HAD TO KEEP A FINGER IN THE HOPPER CONSTANTLY SWIRLING THE GRAINS OR ELSE THE GRAINS WOULD EVENTUALLY SETTLE IN OVER THE HOLE IN THE BOTTOM OF THE HOPPER AND NOT FEED THROUGH. MAYBE I NEED TO ENLARGE THE HOLE. ALSO THE HOPPER AND CATCH BASIN ARE VERY SMALL. IF ANYONE ELSE OUT THERE HAS ANY EXPERIENCE WITH THIS MILL, EMAIL ME WITH YOUR SOLUTIONS. BECAUSE THE GRAINS WERE PROPERLY CRUSHED WITHOUT ANY FLOUR( MY CORONA MILL WOULD ALWAYS GIVE ME LOTS OF FLOUR) MY SPARGING IMPROVED SIGNIF- ICANTLY BY GIVING ME A HIGHER STARTING SPECIFIC GRAVITY AND FOR ONCE MY SPARGING RAN CLEAR AFTER ONLY TWO RUN THROUGHS. I BOUGHT MY MILL FROM TABLE TALK HERE IN TUCSON FOR $69.00. THEIR PHONE IS 602-293-7139. ABOUT A MONTH AGO I ORDERED A STARTER KIT FROM THE YEAST CULTURE CO. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AFRAID OF THE COMPLEXITY AND SANITATION REQUIRE- MENTS OF YEAST CULTURING. WELL FEAR NO MORE! THE PRE-PREPARED KIT MAKES CULTURING A BREEZE AND I HAVE EVEN CULTURED TWO OF WYEASTS ALE STRAINS SO THAT I DON'T NEED TO BUY THEM ANYMORE. MY LAST BATCH OF ALE WAS PITCHED WITH A STARTER THAT WAS CULTURED FROM ONE OF MY PETRI DISHES. IT TOOK OFF LIKE A BAT OUT OF HELL AND FERMENTED STEADILY FOR 5 DAYS WITH A HEAD OF YEAST FOAM 8 INCHES THICK. ONLY A FEW MORE DAYS UNTIL I CAN ENJOY MY FIRST CULTURED FROM SCRATCH BATCH. THE YEAST CULTURE KIT CO. CAN BE REACHED AT 1-800-742-2110 6 TO 8PM EST. MAY YOUR BEER ALWAYS GIVE YOU LOTS OF HEAD! JOHN FRANCISCO CITJLF at ARIZVM1.CCIT.ARIZONA.EDU Return to table of contents
Date: Wed, 20 May 92 10:00:49 EDT From: richer at ionic.HQ.Ileaf.COM (Al Richer) Subject: Keg parts / cleaning info Greetings! have recently stumbled over a complete kegging outfit (for $10. in a flea market!! 2 kegs, a 2-regulator rig with a 20-pound cylinder, and all the hoses and fittings.. drool on, envious rabble...8*)..). Unfortunately, neither keg is a standard type, and the gaskets in both are terminally root-beer contaminated. Has anyone got any suggestions as to where I might obtain replacemt gaskets? Both have twist-on lids, one in 1 piece, one in two, an inner lid wth an external lock ring, if this helps to identify them. One is also missing a pickup tube.I can easily fabricate one from hard copper tubing, but I'm a little concerned about the long-term effects of copper contact with an acid medium like beer. Any opinions? Finally, this rig came with a refrigerated 4-tap dispenser made by Cornelius, which was used for carbonating and dispensing premixed fountain drinks. Does anyone have any suggestions as to a good cleaner to pump through the feed lines to clear them of the old soda residue? They're stainless-steel and wire reinforced plastic, so it seems like I could get away with running something fairly strong through them with little fear. I don't want to use chlorine, though, as I've heard bad things about it in contact with SS. I await your opinions with bated breath. Email or post would be good for this, as it seems like it would be of general interest. Until later, ajr - -- _________________________________________________________ Alan J.

Date: 20 May 1992 12:39:25 -0600 From: "Brett Lindenbach" <Brett_Lindenbach at qms1.life.uiuc.edu> Subject: sterile vs. sanitary Subject: Time:12:05 PM OFFICE MEMO sterile vs. sanitary Date:5/20/92 After my last post regarding the importance of scaling up starters, I received a rash of letters with regards to the following statement: > most homebrewers do not sterilize, but only sanitize their wort through boiling. For instance, someone wrote: >I would have said that an hour's boil at something slightly above 100C would be sufficient to sterilize the wort; it's all the other tools that are merely sanitized.... I would like a chance to comment and hopefully clear up any mis- conceptions out there. The argument begins with semantics: the definition of sterility is the *complete* destruction of all living organisms. ie there is no such thing as "partial sterility," it is an all-or-nothing thing. Anything less is considered to be sanitized, which can be measured in degrees. While sterility may seem like an impossible ideal, it is a goal that can be reached. The two main factors are temperature and exposure time. A guy named Bigelow once studied this topic, and came up with the idea of Thermal Death Time, the shortest period of time required to kill a known microorganism at a specific time. He then went about calculating various TDT's. What he found is at 100C (Chip-I don't know about you, but my water boils at this temp (although I realize altitude and [sugar] will affect this, but usually lowering it)), it takes 788 to 834 minutes (average) to insure destruction of 15 typical thermophiles. I sure hope nobody boils their wort this long! How do microorganisms do this? Spores! Anyways, the long and short of it is that the longer you boil, the closer to sterile you approach, but please do not confuse the two. Why am I such a stickler? I hope that through brewing, people can better appreciate the biology behind it all. Cheers! -BDL (brett_lindenbach.microbiology at qms1.life.uiuc.edu) Return to table of contents
Date: Wed, 20 May 92 13:34:50 CDT From: gjfix at utamat.uta.edu (George J Fix) Subject: Review of Brewers Resource Yeast Kit ( George Fix ) I have long tried to get producers of yeast to come up with an inexpensive, self-contained, user friendly kit for yeast culturing using the classic Hansen procedures. Up to now these appeals have fallen on deaf ears. Happily, a company called Brewers Resource ( phone= 818-887-3282) has just introduced such a kit. Since this is going to be a highly favorable review, let me state at the outset that I have no connection with this company nor this product. The designer of the kit is Dr. Maribeth Raines, a professor of microbiology at UCLA. She has had a distinguished research career, and this kit clearly shows that she has a strong affinity for practical yeast work as well. The kit is self-contained except for a few minor items that can be obtained from a local drugstore. Brewers are also given a lot of options with respect to yeast strains. The kit comes with a booklet written by Dr. Raines. It gives clear, complete, and easy to follow instructions on exactly how the kit is to be used. In preparing yeast for a batch to test the kit, I did not use any of my normal equipment ( autoclave, transfer box, etc. ), but instead did the work exactly as the booklet describes in my kitchen. This batch is now in ruhr storage. I plan to bottle it in time to bring some to Milwaukee. The yeast itself has been repitched, and will be repitched a third time this weekend. I have used every test known to me for checking yeast ( my presentation in Milwaukee will deal with these procedures ), and in every case the yeast came through with flying colors. It would be risky to call any set of procedures associated with yeast as "foolproof", however this kit comes as close to this mark as we are likely to get. Elementary and intermediate are strongly urged to take a shot at yeast management using this kit. It is in every sense user friendly. Advanced brewers will also find much of interest here. Of special interest are Dr. Raines' nutrient media, and the yeast slants as well. There are other options in this kit. These include petri dishes containing special media suitable for culturing yeast from bottle conditioned beers. All of this media is proprietary, and was developed by Dr. Raines in her reseach lab with beer yeast in mind. Dr. Raines booklet has a clear and complete discussion of how culture yeast from bottles, and related topics. I hesitate to call this kit definitive, but frankly I can not thing of a single way it could be improved. It has the potential of introducing a new era in homebrewing, that will affect all brewers, be they working with advanced equipment or with elementary extract systems. Return to table of contents

Date: Wed, 20 May 92 17:02:31 CDT From: bliss at csrd.uiuc.edu (Brian Bliss) Subject: hop plugs > I am considering switching from pellets to plugs, and I have a > couple of questions. > I have heard that plugs are superior to pellets with regard to > aromatic qualities, that they are close to whole hops in this > regard. True or false? > What is the relative utilization rate of plugs versus pellets? > I know pellets yield a slightly higher utilization rate than > whole hops, because they are more resistant to oxidation. > Where do plugs fit in this picture? Hops plugs are compressed enough that they have a longer shelf life than loose leaf hops, presumably on par with pellets. They have not undergone the processing that pellets have (does this processing affect the aromatic quality of pellets?), and therefore are on par with loose leaf hops as far as boiling time/utilization goes (hop pellets break up more easily, and do not require as long of a boil as leaf hops to extract the same amount of flavor/bitterness). Break up the plugs before you add them to the boil. They will not clog your strainer when you try to remove them, nor will they leave a bunch of gunk in the wort, an advantage over pellets. In short, they have all the advantages of loose leaf hops (and the disadvantage of a longer boiling time, but you should always boil at least an hour anyway), but with the shelf life of pellets. They are also conveniently pressed into 1/2 oz. plugs (at least those I could find were) for easy measurment. I highly recommend them. Unfortunately, I can't find them anymore. bb Return to table of contents
Date: Wed, 20 May 92 18:25:10 CDT From: Darren Evans-Young <DARREN at ua1vm.ua.edu> Subject: Sparge water level / Amount of sparge water First, a thanks to all those who responded to my queries. Sparge water level: The consensus on sparge water level is 1-2" above the grain bed to "float" the bed and keep it from settling/compacting and the water from channeling. I use a Listermann sparger (and love it). Amount of sparge water: When I started all-grain, I went by Millers recommendation of 1.33 qts/lb. Then I started reading about various brewers using only 1 qt/lb to keep from diluting the enzymes. I now use 1 qt/lb. I was rounding to the nearest gallon in my previous post when I said I would use 4 gallons for 15 lbs of grain. I would use 15 qts for 15 lbs for mashing. In general: My last all-grain batch, I used a thick mash of 1 qt/lb. My pH after doughing in the grains was still 4.6-4.8. This time I didnt NOT add CaCO3 to adjust the pH since it didnt have much affect anyway. I thought it might actually interfere with conversion. I also sparged a LOT slower...a little above a trickle. Took about an hour to sparge 8 lbs of grain with 5 gallons of water keeping the water level 1-2" above the grain bed. The result? My efficiency went from a consistent 75% to 82-83%!!! I was shooting for a gravity of 1.044 (which I could consistently achieve), but instead got a final OG 1.053. Main points: RUN YOUR SPARGES SLOW!!! I think this was the main enhancement of my procedures. Still pondering the pH adjustment. But, hey, if it ain't broke, don't fix it! Darren Return to table of contents
