What temp now?

Lord Eoin he'd be ok to pitch at 25 and leave in a cold room and then move to his place of fermentation tomorrow right?

QuoteThanks for that tube i thought i might have got the wrong FV delivered. I just realised though in only have one bubbler so i can only start one brew :'( just as well start the stout i think and by time the extra air lock arrives i will be ready to start the other one ::)

You could still throw on the second brew.  ::)
If there is no hole in the lid, just leave it sitting loosely after you pitch your yeast.
If there is a hole, get some tinfoil and scrunch it so that it blocks the hole. You don't want it air tight, just to keep debris, bugs (crawly ones) out.

Tube have you not written new laws for thermal expansion yet we were all counting on ya  ;D

Well thats one way of defrosting your freezer...

Tube they are truly irish smoked rashers and jumbo sausages in there :P

It takes 2 hrs minimum with the power supply fully off for any food to defrost past the point where you can re freeze it and i am only leaving my FV in there 30-45 mins max to try to cool the bastard down >:(

Pitch at 25 would be fine.
I'd probably just get it down to 22 as it's in the freezer and all now, then set it in its final resting place.

What kinda freak freezes rashers?
