mark,
just used your replicator again to check a brew in my
fermentor. The program worked very well on my netscape 3.0 browser.
also the spreadsheet program seems to be mostly right on the actual
measurments i'm taking from the brew. cool tool! glad its online.
thanks.

Re: My Specific Gravity didn't change!

If your airlock really poppped and was doing 60 beats a minute at 80 degrees I would suggest that things fermented as they should. Your original s.g. should have been well over 1.013, most likely in the 1.040 to 1.050 range. Your current reading is about right for the finished brew. You probably read it wrong the first time. The temperature effect at 80 degrees would only make a 4 or 5 point difference in your reading. The next time you brew I would suggest that you cool the wort to 70 degrees or less before starting the fermentation.

Re: Any receipe or kit that will brew like a Corona???

Gee Brian would you really ruin your Corona by placing it in direct light? Probably not. Unfortunately, the American consumer is uneducated when it comes to beer packaging. A properly protected, fresh Corona is quite refreshing. You ought to try and brew one yourself. Brewing a North American Lager can be quite a challenge. Go ahead, see how good of a brewer you are.

Yeah, even though the XLs say they are pitchable, they really are far less yeast than is optimal.
that being said, I've had good ferments with only a smack pack and bad, I've had good ferments with a two-step starter, and bad.
I've just ordered an O2 system, because I have been experiencing high finishing gravities lately. My areation technique has always been poor, hopefully this will help bring those gravities down!
