The Captain!! Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I was asked once why I pronounce wort “wert”, and said because that’s how it’s pronounced. They replied with why is it spelt like that then, I don’t know, when im at work I don’t call it Woark. Doesnt sound the same when you write it down........ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ruddager Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I try to avoid saying the word "wort" in my videos because I know I'm saying it incorrectly but also I don't want to speak correctly and end up sounding like a pompous knob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulW31 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 The best thing about this yeast is that it can be dried and stored in the freezer more or less forever. But you have to dry it fairly quickly, at room temperature mould is likely to develop. Oven drying at 30C is the go. Place the yeast slurry from a brew on baking paper as thinly as possible, put your oven on the minimum to make the heating light come on and leave the door open a bit, and check the temperature. Don't let it get over 40C. It might take all night to dry completely.

King Ruddager Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Pitched my yeast last night Having not used a White Labs vial before I gave it a good shake, cracked the lid, and got a nasty surprise when it Kveik'd all over my hand 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MitchellScott Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I believe it is pronounced "Kwike". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ruddager Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Took a sample just now ... the yeast has Kveik’d its way through 10 gravity points in 22 hours - that’s impressive! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
