Very helpful tips — thank you! I'll definitely try a batch without the CBD just as an experiment. I had already planned to make the next batch with 2-row and crystal malt instead of carafoam. Need to pick up some wheat malt to try that too. Zinc is a new idea I hadn't considered. Might give that...

Thanks for the tip! Here's my process in a nutshell: Note that 45g is equivalent to 2 pounds for 5 gal batch and 1g would be roughly .75 oz for a 5 gal batch. 1. Heat 1 liter of water and 45g maltodextrin to 150° 2. Add 45g crushed CaraFoam in hops bag and hold for 10 mins 3. Add 1 mugi-cha...

Hi! I registered just so I could see if anyone has some clue about this. I've been brewing for many years and have never had this issue. After around 6 weeks or so in the keg, my beer is very hazy – but it isn't yeast. It's hops. It's undrinkable due to hop burn. I added biofine when I initially...
