It's that time again. Beer Time.

Well it's that time again. Beer time. I am going to try my hand at brewing again. I just got done watching Brew Masters on Netflix. A documentary type show, Featuring Dogfish Head Craft Brewed Ales.  Watching it really got me pumped to start home brewing again. It has been almost three years since I have brewed any beer, Drank a lot of beer in the past three years but none brewed by me. The only thing I have brewed in the past three years is a lot of coffee. The last batch from almost three years ago I brewed came out  carbonated but tasted sweet, as if the yeast went dormant before it could consume all the sugars.  Also tasted of apples. Which I just learned from Brew Masters means the beer is a immature.

I want to try to harvest yeast from other beers, I don't know if that is possible, but it sounds like a good science experiment.  I think I will try it from both a lager and an ale. Lagers live and ferment  best from 45 to 55 deg. F and ales live and ferment best at 60 to 70 deg. F. Which makes me think that ales will be easier to harvest Yeast from at room temperature. You know since I do not have a refrigerated science lab to keep the lager yeast thriving.

Well that's it now .
