Wanted to start a separate thread from the Heady Topper clone thread to focus on Conan since a number of people (myself included) are/will be using it in other beers besides a HT clone.
I'm planning on using it in a Galaxy Pale Ale this weekend
currently on the stir plate for the 3 step: 1 can (200ml/1250ml/3000ml)
never had any type of foaming or krausen on a starter using my stir plate like i've seen with Conan.
2nd step had a bit of foam but no concern
3rd step was added last night after decanting most of the liquid and at 3am today I had foam overflowing my 3000ml flask - added a few drops of fermcap and it's still foaming up pretty well.
I'll report details on the Galaxy APA in a few weeks. I'm also considering using it in a Kolch but would like to try to keep that fermentation clean
Curious what results people are getting at different fermentation temperatures, pitch rates, attenuation etc.
