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.

Subject: pitching yeast
I know that having plenty of healthy yeast is essential. I typically do
a medium yeast starter from the wyyeast smack packs for my 5gal batches.
I am starting an experiment with a 1gal batch of ESB that has a gravity
of 1.053. Is it necessary to make a starter for my 1gal batch and if so,
how much?
Thanks,
New brewer

Subject: Siebel Advanced Homebrew Course now in Chicago
Just a note to let homebrewers know that the Siebel Institute Advanced
Homebrewing Course will be held in Chicago at the Siebel Institute of
Technology from July 26 - 30, 2010. The format of the course remains the
same as we have offered over the last few years in Durango, Colorado.
Instructors Ray Daniels, Randy Mosher, Dr. Chris White and Chris Graham
of MoreBeer.com will again be providing instruction (with equipment
again provided by More Beer). We look forward to hosting this great
course in the beer-friendly city of Chicago this summer, and we know
students will have the time of their life exploring this city's vibrant
beer scene while attending this amazing course.
You can get more details on our web site at
http://siebelinstitute.com/course_desc/homebrewing.html, and for
registration information download our course catalog at
http://siebelinstitute.com/catalogs/pdfs/2009_wba_catalog.pdf. If you
have any questions about the course, please drop me a line at
