    Liquid yeast no starter, high gravity, 1 gallon

    Hi guys! I've searched in the forum but didn't find exactly what I was looking for. After a fail with my first liquid yeast, I'd rather ask before I do anything wrong. I'm planning to do a belgian triple with the yeast from Imperial Triple Double. This yeast was made 17/08/2016...

    Stuck fermentation?

    Problem solved, thanks guys. Since you all talked about the refractometer, I checked it and read a bit more about it. It's displayed like that : And as a good idiot/beginner, I checked the right part (SG) to know my FG. I checked in Brix (OG : 11/ FG : 5) and an online converter and it's...

    Stuck fermentation?

    Hi guys, I did brew an APA where the OG was 1.045 the April 25th. Since 4 days, I check the FG and it seems to stay at 1.025. I repitched some US-05, warm up my one gallon jug, still at 1.025 this morning. Am I too unpatient? For a low OG like that I expected to be closer to 1.010/1.015...

    Brew a belgian dubbel with Treacle?

    I took in consideration your concern and decreased the IBU to compensate a possible bitterness from treacle. I also add Golden Syrup but since it has 0 SRM, it was hard to balance. By the way, I did select biscuit because carahell wasn't on Beersmith list but I just downloaded the Weyermann...

    I understand your point for Special B however I don't have any. I thought that I need candi sugar and black colour. Since black treacle meet both and can give a caramel/toffee flavor, I was like why not. You suggest also less biscuit. Something wrong in the style with this malt? I was...

    Brew a belgian dubbel with Treacle?

    I checked a bit more and saw this thread : https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=10305 But, is it possible to sub dark candi by black treacle? It's really not clear for me. Thanks

    Brew a belgian dubbel with Treacle?

    Hi guys! I'd like to brew my first belgian dubbel. However, I'm missing some stuff. So I try to work around. Is there any possibility this can be close to an estery/fruity and biscuit flavors dubbel? Would the treacle be a good sub for dark candi syrup or unrefined sugar? Also, in BJCP 2015...

    Big fermentation and quick fix : is it correct?

    Hi all! This is my 1st post on this forum but I read many posts and really appreciate the community. I'm a new 1gallon brewer, and did 2 days ago my 2nd batch. I did my own recipe with Beersmith, wanted to do a belgian trippel and used Wyeast 3787. My yeast was manufactered 02/02/2016...
