---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu, 9 Aug 2001 00:38:38 EDT From: GordonRick at aol.com Subject: Sparge-ware For my system, an old 30L Bitburger Keg with a 12" hole in the top, I have found that the top from one of my 5 gal "pickle buckets" with a zillion holes drilled through it works just great as a sparge water distributor. After a short vorlauf, I simply run a plastic tube with a valve (or even a squeeze clamp) from my HLT (5 gal water cooler) onto the lid which just covers the hole in the top of my mash tun. I can calibrate the flow of sparge water to the outflow of wort and take a break to relax, not worry, etc. The sparge water trickles through the holes onto the inch or so of standing liquid above the mash without fear of tunneling. (credit goes to Brew-man Carl Godman) The price is right and the technology is about as simple as you can get. Rick Hopfen und Malz, Gott Erhalt's Return to table of contents

Date: Thu, 09 Aug 2001 00:39:52 -0700 From: Mike Lemons <ndcent at hotmail.com> Subject: Foaming Keg Blues Is there an upper limit to the volume of CO2 in a keg that you can serve without foaming and losing that carbonation? I'm trying to serve a wheat beer with an appropriate amount of carbonation for the style, say 3.5 to 4 volumes. The keg is at 36 degrees F. I've got 22 PSI on it. I've got 14 feet of brand new 3/16 inch vinyl tubing and a picnic tap. The line is all refriderated. All I get is foam with a little flat beer. The only thing that is weird about my setup is the inline brass adapters to convert from 3/16 to 1/4 line at both ends. I could lose those and just jam the line on there like everyone else. I have the connectors because I was experimenting with 1/8 inch line in order to get a greater pressure drop. There seems to be too much friction in 1/8 inch line such that the beer would foam in the line before it ever got to the tap. What happens when you have too much beer line? Wait don't tell me. The beer foams right? Is there a way to tell the difference between too- short beer foam and too-long beer foam? Someone mentioned foaming and fobbing. Is "fob" a real word?

I'm behind on my digest reading but here goes. Here are some tips for completing the aforementioned. They are pretty much in the order of my success. 1. Soften the tubing by heating. Use your choice. I've used hot water, boiling water and a lighter. All work well, with the obvious cautions about melting the tubing when using a flame. 2. Use a needle nosed pliers and insert it into the tubing and "pre-stretch" the tubing before attempting to put it on the barb. 3. Use a slight amount of lube. I use lube a product called Keg Lube. 4. Last resort, file (or grind) down the barbs on the connector. If you do this, you *must* use a hose clamp. Return to table of contents

How many of you use some kind of sprinkling/manifold system to distribute the sparge/recirculation water on top of the grain bed? And, how many of you, like myself use nothing but the tube from the HLT or pump? As a committed batch sparger, I do neither. Sparging the way the big boys do it has nothing to do with quality and everything to do with efficiency. Even at the micro brew level a few points difference can add up in terms of malt costs. But a quick calculation indicates that a 5% difference in efficiency on a 5 gallon batch with an OG of 1.046 would require using an additional .7 lbs of malt. I buy in bulk and with shipping pay about $.70/lb., so for me the theoretical additional expense comes to about 50 cents for the batch. Small price to pay for better beer and a much shorter and less aggravating sparge session. For those who are interested in pursuing this further, Ken Schwartz has done some wonderful work on the subject. Here's the link. No Sparge and Batch Sparge Info Len Return to table of contents

And, how many of you, like myself use nothing but the >tube from the HLT or pump? I do exactly as you do, Troy, and always have - with no problems. I agree that it's unnecessary to use a sprinkler, even though that's the origin of the word "sparge" (from O.E.D.: "app. ad. OFr. espargier or L. spargere to sprinkle"). >Martin also comments, "I've seen several sprinkling systems on the market or >created by homebrewers. I agree with the premise that we need to gently >distribute sparge water across the grainbed without disturbance." > >Why? I repeatedly disturb the top inch or two of the grain bed with no ill >effects... Ditto here. I find that it is useful to occasionally break up the teig - that doughy layer of fine particles that settles on top of the grain bed and seems to impede the free flow of sparge water. K.I.S.S. is a useful rule of thumb that applies here, I think. Jeff - -- Jeff Renner in Ann Arbor, Michigan USA, JeffRenner at mediaone.net "One never knows, do one?"

Date: Thu, 9 Aug 2001 09:21:20 -0400 From: "Houseman, David L" <David.Houseman at unisys.com> Subject: Sparge Water Distributors For a spage water distributor in my 10 gallon Gott mash/lauter tun, I place a small, round (about 12" or so) aluminum pizza pan with evenly distributed holes on the top of the bed after mashing and during the recirculation and sparge. I got this at K-mart for a couple bucks or so. It turns out that the inside of my Gott has slightly deformed with the heat over the years so it became easy to put this pan in on top of the mash and it gets jammed into place without actually sitting on the grain itself. A small hole in the lid of the Gott allows me to run my recirculation RIMS hose into tun with the lid in place retaining the heat. I then gravity feed my HLT into the tun through this same hole in the lid. When not using the hole, a solid stopper keeps the heat in. This pan provides for very even distribution of recirculated wort and sparge water while avoiding splashing and retaining the heat. And, NO, no problems with aluminum!

I made a sour mash pseudo Berliner Weiss based on an article in _Zymurgy_ several years ago, I think written by Dennis Davison. It came out quite nicely, and taught me a thing or two about lactic bacteria infections. ;-) I tried to search the AHA's web site for a more definitive issue number, but was unable to find the info.

Cascades in a hop bag 2-3 days before bottling. No weight, it submerges in a few hours. I have noticed that a significant amount of the hops gets through the bag. I also get the impression that the beer seems to carbonate to a higher level than if I don't dry hop. I don't know if it is due to the hop particles stimulating the yeast or to a minor infection.

Date: Thu, 9 Aug 2001 09:08:53 -0500 From: "Houseman, David L" <David.Houseman at unisys.com> Subject: Sour mash beer Scott, A few years ago I did a "sour mash" as a way of producing a Berliner Weisse. It wasn't actually the mash that was soured but rather cooled wort (to about 100oF) was infected with some crushed grain and left to sour for several days. And indeed it did. The stinkier the better. At that point this wort was re-boiled, yeast pitched and fermented. The lactic sourness was present in this Berliner Weisse and it was well received in competitions. I suppose you could certainly do this in the mash itself and just spread the brewing day over several days time. Might have to think about trying this again....

There is also a huge collection of recipes, all in recipator-format. http://hbd.org/cgi-bin/recipator/recipator All of Mark Riley's programs: http://hbd.org/~mriley/ The "Carbonation Calculator" is particularly useful. If you haven't looked at and used the Recipator, I think you'd want to do so before starting a large project!

I was there in late May a trip our small group called 2001 a beer odessy. Cantillon - It operates as a museum. One of the last remaining traditional Lambic breweries. The standard self guided tour ends with samples of 2 lambics. There is a deluxe tour with more samples. point Noir - This is a basement level beer cafe with a large selection. Walking distance from Dam Cental, not sure of direction but I think Southwest. Pupit Theater - It is a cafe across the street from the famous Manican Pis statue. LopLop - another interesting beer cafe, general area of Dam Central. I recall this being to the east. Beer Circus - This is a bottle store. Even if you don't want to carry beer around with you, this is worth walking through. Confederation of Belgian Brewer Beer Museum - Interesting little museum with some centuries old equipment contrasted with modern stainless. 200BF includes one beer. This is located in Dam Cental, near the chocolate museum. Mort Subite Cafe - This is long out of the center to the south east. Serves the Mort Subite Lambics, but not a lot else.

It is located in Antwerp, and held for 2 12 hour periods over 2 days. I enjoyed going in May (just this year). We were off peak for flight cost and hotel cost. Weather was good for packing light, because it was warm. My only coat was a wind breaker I rairly needed. Rail pass got us to Ghent, Brussels, Diksmuide. Westvlerten and Kastel required a car. No tours, you just get to drink in the cafe at Kastel and Westvlerten. Cab ride from Diksmuide to Mad brewers in Essen (Sat and Sun only, English/French tour 2pm).

Date: Thu, 09 Aug 2001 08:52:13 -0700 From: Mike Lemons <ndcent at hotmail.com> Subject: Safe Sanitizer By "safe" I mean something that you could drip into the beer and it wouldn't affect the flavor or harm the health of the drinker or the yeast. I've been using cheap gin. I put it in the airlock. I wipe off the opening where the airlock goes with it. I use it to clean the crud from the top of the fermentor when I am going to refill it with fresh wort and want to keep the yeast at the bottom. The problem is that I am not even sure that 80 proof gin kills anything. At five dollars for 750 ml, it is not that cheap. I would rather use 150 proof ethanol, but I have never found any on sale for a reasonable price. I bought some hydrogen peroxide for pickling brass and it was on sale for 50 cents a pint. It seems to me that I could use this as a safe sanitizer as long as I didn't get it into finished beer or anything else that you want to protect from oxidation. New beer, fresh from the boiling kettle, it seems to me that it wouldn't be hurt very much by peroxide. I use iodophor for normal sanitation. I worry about getting it into small yeast starters. I feel that it might hurt the yeast. It also won't last in an airlock. Return to table of contents

I did notice some depressions in 4 individual locations at the top of the grain bed just above the outlets. I figure a minimal amount of channeling was occurring. Then, I got the idea of using a lightweight plastic 8 inch plate floating on top of the grains. Once I used a heavier ceramic plate, and decided this was too heavy and would compact the grains from it's weight. The lightweight plate (the disposable kind, not Styrofoam, it warps) seems to work very well.
