That does seem to be a lot of sediment to just be yeast. How long was the beer in primary/secondary? What did the bottom of each fermentation look like?

I am not sure about filtering, if it gets out the pumpkin slurry. Maybe a combination of techniques is needed. On mine, the bottles have very little sediment on the bottom. I used Irish Moss in the boil, when transferring from primary to secondary I used a paint strainer which took out much of it. Secondary to bottling bucket, cold crashed, then racked from the top down leaving as much of the trub behind. I just poured one if these, and after nearly five weeks in the bottle I have excellent carbonation (I was worried)

The head is creamy, milk-stout like, and the taste, fantastic!

I just finished brewing this recipe. I tweaked it a little bit by using half pumpkin half sweet potato. I also used blackberry honey instead of molasses. I also used dark candi sugar instead of brown sugar. Smells great! I plan on using Sailor Jerry spice rum for the pumpkin spice tea. I was noticing that you changed the yeast from Trappist Ale to California Ale. How much of a taste difference does the yeast make?

Thanks

The Trappist gave off more fruity and clove flavors. Sailor Jerry is a good rum! Yours should turn out fantastic. Anyone else want to share the tasting experience? I have gone thru nearly the whole batch, as much as I want to save it for a year and see how it ages

Bottled this 1 week ago, I am assuming it will take a few weeks to carbonate.
