We also dont have expert trained tongues either lol. I really need someone from our club to try it but with the Corona Ontario is still shutdown.

Yes to both

Maybe slightly relevant it was over attenuated. Og was 1.060 and Fg was 1.004. I was expecting g 1.010

Got it off our FB group: Ph 7.6 Calcium 34.4 Magnesium 8.9 Sodium 15.4 Sulfate 29.4 Chloride 28.8 Bicarbonate(HC03) 104.7

I'll let you know. Thst second keg certainly wont be tapped until then

Batches that have had this are different NEIPA, a pale ale, and a light lager. I use tap water from the city. Same water my entire club uses. It's best of darker beers but with slightly adjustments it's just fine for lighter styles. I used to test ph every batch but beersmith was a really good...

To me it's akin to being bitter but harsh/ unrefined. It lingers too but not in the good way a IPA normally would. It seems it get worse the longer it's on your pallet. Wife thinks it tasted like vegetables, which given it's a NEIPA is very wrong. It completely masks any fruitiness to the beer...

Yeah I can see that. I put the lid on for the hop stand thinking I was helping avoid contamination. I should have left it off.

They've been on the beer for a week now.

New yeast every batch. I did only boil for 45min this time since the only hops added were at flameout and hop stand at 180f.

At this point I'll try replacing the cold side hoses. And make sure I give the quick connects a good cleaning. I do split the batch into 2 kegs, 4 gal each. I havent even tried the other keg yet. It's possible it could still be the keg too. The keg I havent tried is brand new too so if it still...

No to both.

Whoa hold the phone. Hot side infection? I thought it's impossible to have a hot side infection. Even if the bug is there it still hits boiling wort before leaving the kettle? I did dissemble my ball valve leaving the kettle and gave it a good cleaning for this batch. However, I have 2 very...

I ran it for 20min before chilling. It's also a coil. If it's dirty though it's possible it didnt sanitize properly though correct? You cant sanitize what's not clean.

Still leads me to believe infection. All the process issues seem unlikely unless the hop stand for 30mins at 180f could cause it?

I'm pretty frustrated at this point. My latest beer a NEIPA has this same flavour that has been plaguing me for sometime now. I describe it as being a lingering harshness and my wife who is new to beer said it was like cabbage. Which funny enough perked me up because I've read this can be a...

Not sure why the photo didn't show.

I made my own Brew Easy. Simple stuff. Even the manual flow adjustments are not that bad. Sure I can't set it and leave the room but it cost me only $65 for a new kettle (mash tun) to be set.

What are these differences. I made an APA that I swear is less than 1/2 an ounce away from being a stellar IPA. I have good bitterness but I feel in terms of balance its weighted way more on the aroma side.

If you somehow drive through Oshawa/Whitby. Hit up 5 Paddles
