NOTE: With the economy as it is, the HBD is struggling to
meet its meager operating expenses of approximately $3400
per year. If less than half of those currently directly
subscribed to the HBD sent in a mere $5.00, the HBD would
be able to easily meet its annual expenses, with room to
spare for next year. Please consider it.
As always, donors and donations are publicly acknowledged

Subject: re: swing top and rousing yeast
Buy replacement rubber gasket at local homebrew store
or online. Pull off old, put on new.
Rousing yeast... some yeast in primary/secondary can
stall. By agitating the fermentor you can get the yeast
back in suspension and release CO2. In the bottle you
are getting the yeast back in suspension so they can
work on the sugars that are there. Again, some yeast
need to be roused, some don't.
