Ordered another keg
Bottled my DIPA. 22 bottles... I am never gonna get a full case, it seems. 2.25G extract batches, 21-22 bottles. 2.5G all-grain batches, 21-22 bottles.
And then my brew-bro - let's call him Adam Henry - makes his first batch ever on the same sized equipment, gets a full case & a half-full tester bottle to boot.
He never lets me forget it 'cos he knows how it bugs me that I can't get a full case! I will say, between using a cheap BIAB-bag and using 7 to 7-1/2 pounds of malt, the trub in my little LBK is ridiculous. I've had to rack the beer to my other one before cold-crashing it. Smaller grain bills (I imagine) won't be so bad.
Well, it takes 25-40 minutes (or I should say, ***I*** take 25-40 minutes) to chill the beer down to pitch temps, but I do stir occasionally to help the heat-transfer. Next time, I will not stir and see if that helps.
Thanks, DJ!
Transfer from your BK to LBK through a strainer. Trust me, it will catch a **** ton of hot/cold break trub!
