Ideally immediately after the Kr?usen settles. But you can leave it as long as 2 weeks (from beginning of primary) without worrying about any possible flavours resulting in the beer. Ales can be left long than Lagers. I've sometimes left Ales for more than a month with no problems. long as it is beginning to settle, you can rack.

Transfer after the head produced by the primary fermentation has dropped back into the beer. This is generally after 5 to 8 days in the primary fermenter. Keep in mind that the bulk of the ferment takes place in the primary fermenter, and the secondary fermenter is used primarily as a settling tank, to clear the beer by sedimentation before bottling or kegging.

Although you can use a two stage fermentation method with any of our kits, we specify a simple one step fermentation because it is easier for the first time brewer. If you are just starting out, brew the kit with the specified one step fermentation, as there is less chance of bacterial infection because the beer is handled less. If you ve brewed a few batches, go ahead and use your usual two-stage method. See similar questions...

Evaporation - Drape a wet towel round the fermenter and set it in a tub of water. The towel will wick up more water as it vaporize, thus cooling the fermenter. Add some ice and use a fan to blow at it, will certainly bring the temperature down a few notches. Fermenter Chiller / Chiller Box - Powered by ice, this is your perfect solution to temperature control. See similar questions...

We recommend that beginners use just one fermenter, to minimize beer handling and the chance of contamination. Once you have brewed a few batches, we recommend you try a primary and secondary fermenter - usually a Siphonless and a 5 gallon glass carboy (although a Priming Tank with the Siphonless lid and airlock attached will work as a secondary).

ART has been good to me. I was discouraged when the web site showed there was nobody within an hour's drive of me, but then later I found out there's an excellent chiropractor in the neighborhood that is ART certified. Evidently it costs extra to be listed on their web directory. I'm not sure if ART is the same thing as the old school technique of nimo but if it is, there's absolutely nothing like it for repairing damaged muscles. See similar questions...

We would prefer that you use one of our standard Metro racks or Allentown auto water racks for stability reasons. The peripheral controllers are extremely sensitive to vibrations and an unstable rack will cause inaccurate readings. Let us know the make and model of your rack and provide a digital photo so we can evaluate the stability of your rack system. See similar questions...

The best way to get it off the trub is to use a siphon. Either use a Siphontap (William's product # Q55) to start the siphon, or fill a siphon hose with clean water, dip one end in the cooled wort and place the other below in a fermenter. The water in the hose will start the siphon without unsanitary mouth contact. Siphon until you start sucking up heavy sediment (a little trub can get into the fermenter without hurting anything).

Don't we all hate washing? Especially those difficult ring of scum stucked on the inside fermenter. Hard scrubbing will leave scratches that eventually harbour bacteria or beer spoilers. See similar questions...

The silty trub is hard to avoid, and you will always get some into the fermenter. Try to avoid getting the thickest sediment into the fermenter, by quitting siphoning when there is 1 to ?" of trub left in the boiling pot. Excessive trub in the fermenter has been linked to coarser-tasting beer and a shorter shelf life, although a little will not hurt the flavor, and has even been found to encourage yeast growth. The temperature must be at least 65? F. See similar questions...

Probably not. This is due to an extremely active ferment, and is more common with higher gravity ales in warmer weather. This overflowing will last for 8 to 20 hours, and then subside. Clean up the airlock and replace it on the fermenter. It may become clogged again, depending on how long before the overflowing subsides. See similar questions...

For short term beer contact (under 3 weeks) plastic works well, and has the advantage of being easier to handle and clean. Plastic can be used for both primary and secondary fermentation, as long as the total contact time of the beer with the plastic is three weeks or less. For long term lagering of beer, use a glass carboy, as glass is completely non porous, and has the advantage of giving you a good look at the fermenting beer. See similar questions...

Your Delta Dental dental plan has a non-duplication of benefits clause. This means that when this plan is the secondary carrier, benefits available from this plan will be reduced by the amount paid by the primary carrier. If the primary carrier’s payment is equal to or greater than what would have been paid by this plan if it were the primary carrier, there will be no payment under this plan. See similar questions...

Calcium, magnesium, and sulfur are referred to as secondary nutrients because they're used in greater quantities than micro nutrients. They are commonly listed with micro nutrients on the fertilizer label. See similar questions...

What is secondary bone cancer ? Secondary bone cancer is where malignant cells have spread to the bones from other parts of the body. This is different to cancer that actually started in the bones (primary bone cancer). Virtually all types of cancer can spread to bone. Bone metastases are particularly common in people with breast, lung or prostate cancer. See similar questions...

A primary confluence is one that meets the primary goals of the project, that is, it is on (or close to) land, and not ruled out by the "Poles Problem" restrictions. Check out "What is a primary confluence" above for more details on this. A confluence that is on (or close to) land, but ruled out by the Poles rule is called secondary. Confluence points of this type will be accepted if visited but are not part of the primary goals of the project. See similar questions...

The Hawks are young at both corners and presumably at strong safety. I think it's much more likely they look to sign a veteran DB after the second wave of cuts occur in June than use a high draft pick on another developmental player. Blame me. With the 55th pick in the 2007 SB Mock Draft Seattle takes a dude with a busted leg that some experts are starting to whisper "second day" about. Blame me...but don't expect me to apologize.
