I've been a home brewer for about 24 hours now.. Shouldn't it be fermenting by now, btw? Oh well. That didn't help you much, did it..

i'll talk to some of the people that are in the home brewing club with me at our next meeting :-)

I'd appreciate that, looking for a strong, peppery ginger with high content.

When it says "pitch the yeast" it means into the vat, not into the garbage.

Seriously, what type of yeast are you using and what temp did you pitch it at?

My god, I must be a geek.

When you said Home Brew, I thought software.



I will go back to my corner now.

It has started now, but it took a while. I can't remember the #, but it's a wyeast lager yeast. I waited for it to start fermenting at room temp, and when it began, I put it in an 11C room.

Hmm, I've only done ales, fermenting at around 68 F, 19-20 C. I add the yeast when the wort is a little warmer than that, just to get a fast start. Sounds like you're doing alright.

Any lager brewers out there with advice?
