Big move is finally over. House is sold, all my good brewing stuff is now at our place in Mexico. First batch here with this equipment. I have to say, the brew day went very well. There was a minor issue having the power turned on to my garage, where I brew.
This batch really is the same as the last 2 batches, so again, I'm not going to repeat myself, just detail the differences:
I had to toss all my old yeast for the move, so I picked up 2 packs of White Labs WP-01, California Ale yeast. I made a starter since I now have my stir plate here. My only good temperature controlled space is my little chest freezer, so I did the starter in there. That also gets the temp set for fermenting, so win/win.
Looking at my notes, the yeast was the only real difference. Good brew day!
13 Oct 2025 - gravity was down to 1.011 two days ago, so I turned the temp down to 35F for cold crash. Kegged it today and added gelatin for clearing. Harvested the yeast, I got two really nice looking quart jars. Both kegs are in the kegerator getting some CO2. Should be drinkable in a couple of days.
