RE: Homebrewing 101: Part 1 - Brew day
I spoke to the head brewer of one newly established craft brewery in Bulgaria and they don't use airlocks at all, which surprised me a little. So yes, if the yeast culture is pure, I think there should not be a problem at all.
I started brewing sours about half an year ago, but now I am waiting for the results. Raspberry sour stout and Sour Saison on their way now. I brewed a Berliner weisse too. And it became very good indeed!
Wish you good luck with brewing! Cheers!
Nice! Youve got some tasty sounding beers waiting to grow up, heh.
There's the lambics as well where fermentation happens in an open container with no cultured yeast and relying only on wild varieties.
I know time is the key for sours but I found a cheat recipe that promises a quick finishing sour so I might give that a go for my first one.
Wish you good luck! Today I'm brewing a Sorachi Ace Wit (all-grain) beer, so if I have time, I will post some info on my profile. Stay tuned! :)
Thank you!
I've heard about Sorachi Ace but never used it. Hopped wits are my favourite style so I'm sure that will turn out wonderful! I'm definitely going to check out your posts for updates on the brews!
