I tried BB Conditioning tabs to try to have consistent carbonation through all bottles, and now I have 5 gallons of flat beer. Does anyone recommened a certain type of conditioning / carbonation tablets to use to try to rescue my beer? Thanks.:ban:

Be sure to use nice aromatic hops with fruity characters or this yeast won't shine its true colors. It's amazing how much flavor it adds. If you have an ipa recipe that you brew that you like, use that with this Conan strain and you'll note a big difference in flavor. Throw some simcoe in there...

This brew came out great! An ipa With the Conan yeast.

Well it depends on what you have going. You have to think of it like a yeast starter. Split it up evenly

I meant to say "shine" its true colors there.

I brewed a standard IPA with mine, and bottled Thursday. Its tastes very good, you won't be disappointed in it. Brew with a solid and fruity hop profile though, otherwise the yeast may not some its true colors. Check this out though, I'm growing some cascade that have been going for one...

When I bulked mine up, I stuck it in the freezer for 5 min to allow all yeast to settle before decanting. However, if you're using a stir plate, allow it to sit without stirring for a day, then put it in the freezer for 5 min before decanting. I usually decant because of off flavors that can...

I waited 4-5 days before bulking mine up, which yielded great results.

My ipa brewed with conan is now in the secondary, sitting on an oz of simcoe. Pumped!

Me neither. BTW, I just brewed an ipa with the conan yeast. It's now fermenting strong, twelve oz of hops. Should be good.

Haha I hear that man. I love s&s1 and 4. I haven't had 6 yet, but I'm pumped. I'm also really pumped for ephraim.

I agree Mr. Nick. It the defense of PTE, it does have to ship across the country to get here, same with HT to get to Cali. Fresh, Heady is incredible. Although, I do have a soft spot for HF Abner.

Monday yeast update.

Yeah, the head brewer (Dave) worked at HF for 2 years or so. Their new IPA "A Town Called Earth" is very similar to HF Abner. Really good stuff if you ever want to make an exchange.

Hey man, I actually grew up near keene, and will be making the trip in two weeks. Do you want some blue lobster? The ipa is incredible honestly.

I'm actually in Portsmouth, NH. I'm just a huge fan of VT and the beers there.

Also, any chance of zombie dust?

Any chance you can get your hands on Supplecation or temptation by RR? I can't ship growlers of HF, but could probably get some bottles. I can do some heady topper, and did you want the Maine brewing lunch too?

Either way, smells nice. Still excited about it.

Yeast ring is looking damn fine today. Definitely getting some good yeast growth in here. It smells delicious too. You can tell that so many of the tropical flavors come directly from this yeast strain. I'm so excited to brew with this.
