3g sachet to add with yeast. This enzyme helps yeast to break down and consume more of the remaining sugars in your brew, creating a lower final S.G. Because it assists the conversion to alcohol, it can contribute to a beer with a drier finish and lighter body.

Do you need to use less sugar when priming if you used a dry enzyme?

I do the same except I add finings (gelatin) 2-3 days before I crash. I usual only crash for 48 hrs then bottle

Have you ever have a quick conditioning beer you drank from a bottle?

Hey Was going to use finings and cold crash but had a thought that finings might take more out of my beer than cloudiness

Boiled tap and boiled rain water. Numbers are always different but more looking for the final number to make dry ales

Calcium sulphate and gypsum are the same. I bought a 100 grm PAC but did not have any ratios. Just wondering if I put a grm or a hundred per batch

I just bought some calcium sulphate and cannot find what ratio to add to my water to make it harder. Anyone use this before and have a ratio for this. Also I read that boiling your water makes it softer. Look forward to any info Happy brewing

Thanks.. Always like to here other brewers advice..will taste after a week and remove once I feel hopped... Happy brewing

You can put it in a shallow bath and wrap a towel around or put a t-shirt over it or both and the evaporation will drop it a few degrees. Through some ice in the bath once and a while doent hurt.. Happy brewing The dog
