Is an immersion chiller really necessary? Jack is 100% correct here. Chillers save time and decrease the risks of infection. Four or five gallons can be chilled off in 12-20 minutes reliably, with better cold break and good pitch temperature. Upvoted. |

Why do my airlocks lose liquid? Denny, I can appreciate that.The issues of suckback and other situations where you may get lock-juice in your beer generally require more than plain water. This falls into the category of "best practice" rather than "must do". |

Do homebrewing shops get brewery's permission before designing/marketing a clone beer kit? Norther Brewer recently received a Cease and Desist on trademark basis, for their 3 Hearted Ale from Bell's (maker's of 2 Hearted Ale) It's a simple trademark defense, and not really aimed at the recipe. bellsbeer.com/news/… |

Brewing with very bad old-smelling potatoes? @PJ Rodger that. I don't have any particular problems with the question or home distilling, just wanted to make sure mods were aware. |

Is RTD beer susceptible to any damage from temperature fluctuations? I would describe periodic refrigeration as a process that will slowly overcarbonate your beer, as opposed to improper warm storage all the time. Essentially, it will kill your beer by inches. Cool, lightless, dry environments are required for beer storage. |

What is the white film on my beer in my bottles? My understanding is that diacetyl doesn't show up visibly, am I wrong about that, or are you getting at something else? Just curious. |

Glosan and soapy taste No problem Nice thing about BLC and other products from National Chemical is that they have MSDS right on their site, easy to get. Good luck! |
