General Homebrew Discussion / Could we have moon beer?

« on: November 14, 2009, 07:07:25 AM »

I want to be first in line to get enough water from the moon to brew with.

With NASA's recent discovery of water on the moon, can Moon Beer be far behind?

I'm after brewing with melted Iceberg water, and that makes for interesting conversation, so now
the big challenge would be to get moon water. Hmmmm.... I wonder how much that would cost?

But why bother rousing yeast if the fermentation is chugging along, unless you've selected
a strain that's unattentuative and a great flocculater?
Usually there's enough yeast in suspension to keep things going to finish.

How well did you aerate and did you use pure O2 or other means if you in fact did aerate?

That's a hefty gravity for a yeast to swallow if you under pitched, unde raerated, or are starting
fermentation at a lower than optimum fermenting temperture.
