And nobody does secondary fermentation any more.


No! No need for that unless you are aging on some adjunct.

Keg is a secondary too. So there is that.

Main thing I've noticed is that there are many more varieties of dry yeast and hops out there, now!

And nobody does secondary fermentation any more.


Definitely a wide variety of yeast and even several boutique maltster’s such as Mecca Grade. I’ve been experimenting with several.

And Yup, secondary is a rarity but I did do one last week for a Saison I racked on to 5# mangoes.

And another not so new method I couldn’t be happier with: BIAB.

I'm drinking IPA that was for the wedding. 5 in. It's tasty.

Well, I have all the material I need to brew my butt off, but none of the time. I was going to mash and start a kettle sour tomorrow, but work called me back after two weeks. That'll turn around in ten days.

Was looking forward to it.

Also have a helles that needs to be kegged tomorrow (no secondary- it's been cold crashing past couple of days). That fermented for 10 days with wlp 833.
