Thanks Jim
I won't pretend to understand your post, but I do get the general point about downloading the calculators being hugely problematic.
The real answer, I suppose, is to stop the site going down every now and then. Easier said than done, no doubt!

Re: Can Graham's water treatment calculator be downloaded?
My water profile changes a bit, depending on how much rain there's been! Plus, I like the ability to set the calculator to 'Automatic' for the target liquor and then choose whatever sulphate:chloride ratio I want for the beer I'm brewing. While on the topic of downloads, it would also be good to be ...

Can Graham's water treatment calculator be downloaded?
The site went down again today. Snowed by stupid hackers, probably.

Is there any way of grabbing the calculator and keeping it on my PC, please?
Thanks.

Re: Syphons.
Yup, a tap would do it. But, if JohnRB uses a keg rather than bottles, syphoning straight into the keg would work.
Until we hear back, the tension will just build!

Re: Syphons.
First things first! Why would you want to move your brew from one bucket to another?

Re: Another question about yeast starters/slurry
Start with a 300ml starter and step up with 1000ml. 30 gr of DME for the 300ml and 100 gr for the 1000ml It is very important get some oxygen into the wort after boiling it. Ideally with a stir plate. If not by shaking it vigorously. With liquid yeast costing £13 quid a time it is worth buying a st...

Re: Another question about yeast starters/slurry
Depends on the tap. My conical uses ball valves. No way would I want to take a sample then leave the ball full of fermenting beer!

Re: Another question about yeast starters/slurry
If it's any help, my method is taken from IPA's. I sanitise a jug, then scoop half a litre or so from the top of the fermenting beer, including the krausen. Tip it into a kilner jar and put it in the 'fridge. It carries on fermenting, even at 4°C. The kilner jar allows exces gas to be released as ne...

Fascinating. Thanks for taking the risk and posting your result. Good to know the lager is drinkable and won't need throwing away!

Re: Who uses chalk (CaCo3) to control mash pH?
Interesting! How much do you use, and how do you work out how much to use?
