Anyone harvested any and want to ship!?
Sounds like a good opportunity for a beer swap! Have you any sour homebrew?
I’d gladly trade some wild slurry for a few wild homebrews!
The current “house” mixed blend is going into a gallon starter today - the last step before pitching. It will have revived dregs from Jolly Pumpkin, Goose Island (Juliet), Boulevard (Love Child #2), Petrus, The Bruery (Oude Tart), and Upland (Gilgamesh). I might also throw in a touch of slurry from WLP670.
I actually don’t have any as of now
Ah well, I’ll have plenty enough slurry to give away. Just send me a few bottles of the finished product whenever they’re ready.
I’ll DM you for a shipping address after the first pitch is ready.
Nice! what bugs u got
Was wondering if I have sours going and I sanitize my thrift after pulling a sample from a sour wit, is my bucket of starsan infected with bugs. I rinsed the thrift after pulling a sample
nope. If you star san gets infected it’s not going to work anyway. It’s designed to kill just those bugs afterall.
Meant thief *
Always good to have an extra set of plastic ware (thief, racking stuff, buckets, bungs, airlocks, etc) for sours/brett’d beers.
I use duct tape or red permanent marker to mark the “sour” equipment.
BTW - lambic is fermenting away in primary. I didn’t have time for slurry, but I probably could send you a bottle of unfinished (but fairly attenuated) beer that you could pitch straight into a batch or grow a starter from.
