Yeast Brinks and Load Cells Versus Metering Pump for 30,60 100 bbl We are adding 60 and 100 bbl tanks Wonderful, but First, who makes the best yeast brink? Affordable? Any feedback on GW Kent brink? I don't see many suppliers offering 120 - 180 gallon yeast brinks what about Stout Tanks, brewhemoth, or Blinchmann Engineering? Or Dayuwz, Chinese supplier? Do you adapt a fermenter? Who
Yeast management - ProBrewer Discussion Board What is everyone's yeast management process? Specifically, some things I was wondering if others do: Are you crashing temperature before cropping or warm cropping? Do you acid wash or dilute slurries with water? How long are you storing cropped yeast? During this time do you feed, aerate, release CO2, etc?
Harvesting in Half Barrel Keg Brinks (SOP) for the community The added water slows down the yeast using up their energy storage and extends the time that harvested brinks can be stored and remain vital enough for use in a new fermentation Adding a small amount of tetra-iso extract to the brinks is used to combat beer spoiling microorganisms tetra-hydro-isohumulone in 20Kg at 10% strength
yeast brinks - ProBrewer Discussion Board How soon before pitching in-line should i pull a brink out to let the yeast warm up I use a retro fitted 1 2bbl and we store our brinks at 34-36 degrees F Thanks Jim
Corney mod for yeast brink - HOW? - ProBrewer Discussion Board Corney brinks We attempted to use a corney for a brink by removing the inner valve stem on the out post but it would still get plugged fairly often We then had the lid drilled and welded with a 90 deg TC and a down tube Worked well but it ended up being too small of a volume for us and we were also quite nervous about all the nooks and crannies
Degassing Yeast Slurries Samples - ProBrewer Discussion Board We pull our yeast samples from our brinks in to 50mL centrifuge tubes for testing, and depending on the density of the slurry (thicker being more stubborn) even a small bit of residual Co2 can make it very difficult to pull a full sample with the (10uL) micro pipette for dilution
Yeast Brink Recommendations - ProBrewer Discussion Board Cheap, sanitary, and durable do not often come together Cheap - 20l Nalgene bottles, or cornies, sanitary and durable - keg brinks, best option - propagator vessel Big fan of keg brinks for versatility Use them to push chemicals through the canning line, add fruit to beer, store and pitch yeast, and used to use one as a grant back in the day
What are your yeast brink SOPs? - ProBrewer Discussion Board We just got a yeast brink with load cells and there is so little in the literature about proper yeast procedure with a yeast brink What are your SOPs with generation, harvesting from cones, and pitching by weight? Cheers!
Yeast Brink Recommendations - ProBrewer Discussion Board I'm looking for a simple solution for transporting and storing yeast between batches I'll usually be pulling 1-2 barrels of yeast The White labs ferm flasks look cool, but they are a little bit overkill and expensive, especially since I would need multiple kegs I have a few sanke select kegs that work ok but I tend to use
Sourcing a peristaltic pump for yeast recirculation Hi, I am looking to purchase a small peristaltic pump to keep the yeast in suspension in my 100L yeast propagator What is the specs I should look for ? I would also use the pump to transfer yeast from the cone to my brinks Thanks
