It may be bad storage on distribution site or something you can’t affect. You just can’t recognize it if you don’t do it every day, even in industrial setting you can notice it after few days so don’t think about it that much. You probably got bad batch of yeasts, it happens, I do the same thing and usually it is ok.
The dropping out of beer characteristics of yeasts is attribute after they die so you could get less vital batch or something it doesn’t say much.
For storing in fridge it is usually enough at about 5°C the yeasts settle down and you don’t need filtration or pasteurization for getting clean long lasting beer (when you store it correctly).
So tldr of your issue is probably combination of bad measurements and bad batch of yeasts, shit happens, and good luck on next try - you probably didn’t do anything wrong.
Congrats you made drinkable beer. At least it wasn’t complete loss.
Bad yeasts is pretty easy issue to solve so good luck on your next brews.
It is so interesting to me the uses of “leftovers” or byproducts of brewing.
From our brewery ve give the yeasts away to somebody who makes cosmetic products from them (but not too often usually it ends up dumped in sewer). And used up malt ends up as animal feed loads of people want it for chickens, sheeps, goats, cows you name it.
I consume these byproducts when they go though some animal :-)
Sometimes we get some chicken (3,5 kg or so large from small farm not the 1kg ones), and few months ago I got whole lamb.
Competitive timed shitting league in China?
One of the first few brews on the system I was helping to get started (and teach about brewing new guy) ended with boil off of about 1/4 of the volume. We then discovered that it had lower settings - 2000 wats was too much.
I never got to all in one brew systems, I had to try to deal with one and successfully made some beer.
Main issue for me was the inconsistent results but it may be my hands.
For boil off there are usually power settings so sometimes the larger loss is caused by forgetting to re-select the lower one.
From some more articles I grasped that it is shady. Some lobbying groups, secret commissions and stuff like that. They try really hard to not be the ones to point fingers at.
I think that there are more issues like archaic connectors and stuff like that. You can’t find new hardware with 30yo standard io.
The oldest version of Win I used was 95 about 2 years ago on chromatography machine (I think hplc or gas).
It is to my knowledge still in use in the school because the software don’t run on newer machines. The teacher told me that he don’t know what will he do when it dies. It isn’t really an issue on Linux.
You are right - you don’t see what’s under water. These are streams (op’s and mine photo) so there is usually hard gravel so no problem with 30mm+ tires.
In my case there were bigger stones so if you hit them in best case you fell off bike, in worst case you fell off and damage wheels.
Sometimes it is best to get off and push your bike.
I had to. It is few weeks old foto - behind me is steep gravel downhill and you see this streem in the last moment so I had to slam my brakes. One side had pretty big stones so if I didn’t check it I would end up in it.
It will be probably more. I talked with sysadmin from some smaller provider in my country few months ago. And he told me that the migration will take them for most systems about 2 years (depreciation of hardware) and for some machines about 5 years.
So lot of customers are in process of replacing it but it will take multiple years.
It is little bit more buggier but it may be the hardware and I can’t get it with xfce.
I don’t want to mess that deep in the system, just get it to my favorite theme and leave it be. So it is basically out of the box experience.
Slow one but- several years of drought and then bug infestation of some of our forests.
It affected badly planted forests (monocultures) but still it is sad to see bare places you remember covered.
There are several of these man made disasters around here but this one is most visible.
Which flavor did you choose? I am now rocking basic mint with XFCE on my older machine and LMDE on newer.
I heard even more radical proposal (not in us) - cap the voting age. Reason is simple, by voting you decide about future, how can pensioners who, frankly, will die soon can reasonably decide about my future if I am 20 yo.
You may try refractometer with correction and then using hydrometer before bottling/when you need exact measurements. Other options are too expensive for homebrewers, like in our brewery we use device from AntonPaar that uses about 10ml per measurement. It costs about 5-10 times more than the pill.
No it isn’t bad or large fluctuation, in our case it got to 15 C and then stopped at about 6 or 7 °Bx (~1,025 SG) and get to about 10C afterwards.
US04’s or other ale strains are pretty tolerant to “small” fluctuations or don’t getting the temperature right.
It was built 100 yers after lager brewing proces and ~500 years after hops usage. 200 years ago or so the brewing process became more industrialized, this brewery was modernized multiple times and was in use until 1977.
In about 200 years it basically didn’t changed. But these really old technologies and history is interesting too, you just refer to something at least 100 years off of what I refer to in my post.
I hope that I will visit National museum of brewing technology this fall, they have loads of instruments, machinery and stuff from 19th and early 20th century when they really experimented with the process. In my opinion it is most interesting part of industrial brewing history.
