HYDROMETERThe Future Of Homebrewing Has Arrived!
A comprehensive review of eight new products!
At least half the fun in any hobby is shop talk. For the serious Homebrewer this means keeping constantly abreast of new developments in the field. To that end, it's with great pleasure that I bring you this BarleyLegal exclusive!
New innovations in Homebrewing are on the market this spring. Before you fire up your propane burner, and purge your kegs, purge your imagination, and fire up your credit card-- One look, and you won't be able to live without these must have magic bullets!
Re-Sani-Brew
Since day one, many Homebrewers have been using re-sold Diversol BX/A with the Diversey Lever Inc. has finally caught on, and made their move. They have re-branded Diversol BX/A as RE-SANI-BREW, and are selling it direct in bulk!
What's different about Re-Sani-Brew? Virtually nothing! An inventory error left tuns of Diversol BX/A on the shelves for more than two years. This old expired stock pile has been given a new name, and a new lease on life. It won't mater if you use Re-Sani-Brew as if it was bleach, because it's no more effective than bleach, even if you do use hot water!
Gone are the days when Homebrewers waste money and time by improperly using Diversey's #1 sanitizer. Diversey has cut out the middleman, so you will save money, and the sanitizer is so weak that you wont be wasting time either, as you will actually HAVE to soak your equipment for 20 Minutes!

You've heard of Super Yeast? Get ready for Super DUPER Yeast!
Originally bred for the biofuel industry, this genetically enhanced yeast culture can break down cellulose. An innovation which has made corn stalks fermentable will shortly be available at your local Homebrewing supplies store.
What does this mean for our hobby? Well, lets say that your a homeless crack addict, and because of budget cuts, you got booted off the government methadone program. Before, all you could do for a little pick-me-up to see you through to the next welfare cheque was to ferment raisins, and white sugar in a hazardous materials disposal bucket that you stole from a needle exchange. That's good clean fun, but raisins and sugar are expensive. NOW, with Super Duper Yeast, you can ferment lawn clippings, and flower stems! Gone are the days when the arrival of Autumn put a frown on your already weather beaten face. All those fallen leaves in October will make November party time for you and your friends-- under the bridge.

Terminator
This new liquid culture package from Wyeast will finally settle that age old question, “Have I pitched enough yeast?”
Homebrewing Suppliers will tell you that a fresh Propagator package directly from the lab is as good as as starter, and an Activator package is just MORE yeast. Now you don't have to feel paranoid for ignoring their advice, and buying four packages instead of one. You can't pitch to little yeast with the Terminator, because the Terminator contains *to much yeast, which is almost enough.
*Warning, package may explode if left for more than two hours after breaking nutrient pellet.
