I know for the cooling side I just plug in the chest freezer, but what do you recommend for the heating side? I was thinking of one of those reptile heating pads, but thought I'd ask the group. Thanks for any help and for all of the input over the years! Ritchy Return to table of contents

Date: Fri, 2 Nov 2007 20:34:16 -0300 From: "Alexandre Carminati" <afcarminati at gmail.com> Subject: sour bottled beer Hi folks, I am writing from Brazil, so please forgive my language mistakes. My problem is related to 2 beer styles which become sour after 3 weeks of ageing. Those beers (a Red Ale and a Porter) have in common just: water, the yeast (US-05) and CaraAroma malt. The original recipe for both claimed for Windsor yeast, but after a few bad results I have changed to US-05 (and the results did not get any better) Both are fantastic before bottling, but just a few weeks later they are undrinkable. I really dont understand it, because I make Pale Ale and Wheat beer successfully using the same sanitary cares and primming methods. Is there anyone to suggest me something to solve it?
