Nothing is idiot proof, idiot resistant, maybe haha. I hope the igloo guys are looking after you but I think their product is way over priced for what it is, I know you can't really comment on this, but I remember the same thing without the "machine" part, really cheap, it was a good novelty but a pretty pointless product
Lmao I love that hahaha can’t cure stupid 😂 and that’s totally fair, in a perfect world it would be a fraction of the cost, which would be just an amazing way to get people hooked on the brewing bug without a huge cost barrier to entry
Separate comment but I've always let my starter settle fo ra couple hours and decant the liquid off, I'd love to see you do a comparison for flavour looking at a 1L starter in a Lager vs a decanted 250ml yeast, I'm sure there's no difference but really it's 5% volume as malt extract in a 1L starter
Yeah I get what u mean, 🧐 tbh it’s never been something I’ve thought about, just one of those things that “this is the way I’ve always done it” sort of situations, but does actually make sense tho, coz if you let it settle you can still pitch all the healthy stuff without diluting the fermenter so much
Oh yep my bad! Wrote the wrong malt on the website, but tbh both of these malts are fairly interchangeable. You really just need a melanoidin malt for this part of the grain bill. I’ve corrected it now, thanks for the pickup tho!
