Electric Kettle with thermostat The brewferm electric kettles have a power of 1.8-2 kW, so I believe 4-5 kW would be too much. After all, we are talking about a company producing reliable products for homebrewing, so I wouldn't doubt the kettle's ability to boil 20 litres of wort. Could you provide the homebrew talk link for that byo article? |

Electric Kettle with thermostat The product I had in mind is Brewferm's BREWING KETTLE 27 l ELECTRIC. It is made of stainless steel,has a volume of 27 lts, heating element of 1800 watt and an adjustable thermostat 30-100 degrees C. It is suitable for batches of up to 20 lts and even has a tap. Here's a picture of it brouwland.com/content/assets/photos/057/0570951.jpg The pro version has also a digital thermostat and a timer, but I think the considerable price difference gets it out of most homebrewers' shopping cart. |

moving a better bottle carboy Very good and complete answer. I would just like to add that I personally use vodka instead of water in the airlock so that in case of sucking-in there is neither a chance of infection nor of change in taste. |

Using Granular Yeast in a Lager Yeah, 38 C might even kill the yeast. I will stick to the official guidelines and pitch it in a wort at about 25 C, that's what i always do anyway, and the leave it until it reaches 20 degrees to pitch it into the rest of the wort. Since this is not a real starter, just a rehydration, do you think using raw cane sugar is ok or it's better to use malt extract like in starters? |

Brew Fail Diagnosis Help Yeah, without a recipe not much can be done. If you used a brewferm kit though, it's most unlikely that it came out with less than a great body without doing something wrong. The brewferm kits produce really full-bodied beers. |

Using hops after fermentation Perfect answer! My concern was mainly how i could choose the balance between hop aroma and bitterness. In beers that are already aromatic, hop aroma could make a total mess. So if that case occurs I'll keep in mind the isomerized hop extracts! Cheers! |
