Sounds like an 80s song....
But seriously, I brewed an IPA and used Voss Kveik on it (first time trying it in an IPA)
Plan was to double dry hop. First with about 10pts to go and second when ferm was done and leave for 4 more days before kegging.
OG of wort - 1.062
30 hrs in Kveik had it down to 1.023
so I added first dry hop (1 oz each of citrate, mosaic, Galaxy) as prediction was this would finish at 1.015.
Since that addition the yeast seem to have stopped completely. (watching the gravity thru a Tilt). It's even shown it hovering back up at 1.024-1.025. (it's now been 24 hrs since adding first dry hop)
Did I really kill/stop the yeast with the first dry hop ????
Recipe was basic: pils, 2 row, flaked oats. Mashed at 155-156. Initial fermentation temp was 87 constant until dry hop add. I've since warmed it up to about 92, but Tilt doesn't seem to be registering any gravity drops. It shows the temp increase so I know it's working/reading.
I thought Kveik was indestructible.
Any ideas ????
