    Mould in fermentation chamber

    Yep. That’s what I used to do, along with a bit of kitchen foil outermost. But the fan also stops the mould issues as it’s a converted chest freezer too.

    Just looked for this book and see there’s a 2013 edition and a newer one. Older one is £3 on Amazon and the newer is £13. is the Neipa recipe mentioned in both editions?

    Mould in fermentation chamber

    I know this is a bit of an old post, but in case it helps anyone…… I’ve got a 150 liter chest freezer that I use for fermentation chamber. When I started using it I did start to see the odd bit of mould here and there. Using an inkbird for controlling the cooling and an old hambleton bard heat...

    Grainfather, Brewmonk, and other all in ones with built in pump etc

    Meticulous cleaning. Five Star PBW run via pump through everything including the plate chiller for 30 mins. Scrub down of the kettle while running. Then three rinses. Even run it through the drain tap from the plate chiller out. Not had any pump trip outs with the occasional pump through during...

    Nope again :-) left it cold conditioning at 0c for 2 weeks, pulled off a few pints, transferred to another flushed corny keg, left for a week at zero again. Still bitter. Thinking I’ll try a different recipe. It was an AG Neipa from brupaks but I’m thinking their dry hopping with pellets is a...

    Nope :-) closed transfer from fermzilla to full co2 flushed corny keg (no rinse sanitizer pushed out with co2). Even flushed the transfer lines with co2 before starting. No, hop burn is the problem. Smells amazing but tastes like battery acid…..

    Many thanks. But, Oh, I don’t know about that :-) . Yes it’s mostly been successful but my recent attempt at a NEIPA has been a disaster. Probably more on that later……

    Thanks Baron, just sitting here slurping a saaz larger / pilsner type thing I brewed a few weeks ago thinking about all the questions I need to ask 😀

    Grainfather, Brewmonk, and other all in ones with built in pump etc

    So. Recently upgraded from a mash and boil all in one, to one with a pump in the base. Most of the instructions for the units with the pump say not to run the pump during boil. I guess because pressure + 100c liquid results in pump cavitation. So I measured the volume of the liquid (just water...

    Hi. I’m Rob. Been AG brewing for about 18 months now so still a newbie with lots of questions. Lots of good information out there on the web and here, but not always specific to what I’m looking for. So please bear with me if some of my questions are a bit ‘out there’. Come from a process...
