Countering excessive maltodextrin Blending is the answer. A little bit at a time until you get a good mix. |

What are the effects of a watery mash? Right. I suspect you have to get up to ridiculous water to grist ratios before running into a problem. Even then, continuous stirring would probably solve that problem. |

What are the effects of a watery mash? Nah, the grain settles pretty well. A good vorlauf will set up your filter. |

Alternative/Non-traditional Brewing Practices Fullers brewery in London does sort of a batch sparge/partigyle brew. Look it up on recent episodes of the Brewing Network's Can You Brew It |

Alternative/Non-traditional Brewing Practices I'm pretty sure I heard Papazian mention still using bucket fermenters in one of the many interviews I've heard. That dude makes good beer, but I don't know if he's into the competition circuit. |

Low Cost Conical Fermenter Just pointing out a downside to the seemingly cheap price of the tanks. Ultimately, I would be happier with SS. I converted to using half-barrel kegs and a special fitting for my fermenters. They're not conical, but are stainless and work well. |

What is the best book for beginning home brewers? I'd classify this as an intermediate book. It's not advanced and a smart new brewer could get good use from it. I always recommend this to homebrewers that want to improve their beers. |

Didn't hit gravity--how to calculate how much malt extract to add to the fermenter? +1 To Brewchez's comment on correcting gravity in the kettle. Pre-boil gravity will tell you exactly what your original gravity will be. Also a good idea to check it before each hop addition until you get the hang of what's going on. |

How long can I leave beer in the secondary fermenter? I'm surprised this question hasn't been asked before. |
