Why the hell did I wait so long to try this? Less than 12 hours after pitching my airlock is going crazy. I guess I put it off so long because I thought I didn’t have the proper equipment. While a stir plate would have made it easier, I used a half gallon growler, and just proceeded to swirl it up every so often.
That is exactly how I do mine. Mostly works great.
Yup, not that hard. If you’re a poor planner like me, you can do them well ahead of time. Once the yeast are done, store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
With a stir plate and various size flasks, your brewery will look like it has a madscientist as the brewer. Just saying.
Lol I agree. I already made it clear to my wife that when we go to buy a house, it has to have room for a “Brew Lab.”
I tried to whole ‘brew lab’ room pitch to my girl too. She laughed at me not knowing I was serious about it. Eventually, I will have my own “lab”.
My tiny little barracks room is already looking like a brew lab some days :
