Kill yeast in keg Thanks for the info. If this is true, then Potassium Sorbate / Metabisulfite is probably not a good answer. If yeast ever "recover," there will be plenty of sugars left once I bottle to dry out the cider and/or overcarbonate it. |

Kill yeast in keg I'm thinking about grabbing a large quantity of Potassium Sorbate. How long can I expect this to remain viable? |

Kill yeast in keg Thanks, I'll obtain some Potassium Sorbate and give this a try. In the meantime, I'll assume this is the right answer :) |

Can I make urwagwa? I've often wondered about this when I eat bananas. I LOVE bananas. I'd be very interested in trying this, so do keep this question updated if you have any experience with it. |

Yeast for very high gravity (1.138) stout Getting a bit off topic here, but would you say there are distinct phases of yeast activity on a micro scale (for an individual yeast cell)? |

Yeast for very high gravity (1.138) stout You wouldn't aerate when using a slurry? Is that because the yeast colony is established and thus it won't go through much of an aerobic phase? |

Yeast for very high gravity (1.138) stout Indeed my concern with using a second yeast is the undesired flavors it might produce. If I can't get my FG where I want with my desired yeast, what would you suggest? And thanks for the input on ferm temp, I'll do my best to keep it pretty low initially. |

Yeast for very high gravity (1.138) stout Good points on adding nutrients, and using a "secondary" yeast as a last resort, and for repitching my "primary" yeast to get FG as low as possible. |

Does a malt “late addition” affect OG? You really need to phrase this better. "A late malt addition doesn't affect final gravity" makes it sound like it doesn't add fermentable sugar to the wort, which is not what you intend to say. |
