Hey guys. Just got a new 6L co2 tank, as I wanted my smaller one for purging kegs and topping up my pressure fermenter, and a bigger one sitting in my kegerator. It came prefilled, brand new, with food grade co2 in there. Chain of events: Took my regulator off old tank, attached to the new one...

Hey, I'm relatively new to kegging, and bought like a tank regulator combo a few months back. It was from a beer specialist shop, so the regulator goes from 0-6 bar or approx 0-90 psi, so it's easy to control. I wanted another tank+reg for purging and topping up my pressure fermentor etc, so...

small update on this, feeling kinda dumb. this came out a beautiful deep orange color, tastes lovely with hints of biscuit and a solid malt base. I used LAIII and the fact that it ended up at 1.018 gives its a very slight residual sweetness that goes really well with the malty flavors. very...

Let's hope! Standard GF 60 minute boil, and as im sure you know, the GF boils are not what I would describe as especially vigorous, just a chilled out rolling boil. We'lll see how it comes out, I just did not expect to see mud in my fermenter :D Edit: just checked your link, and the recipe i...

Yes indeed, I don't have access to 2-row here either. I always use pilsner in my IPAs and NEIPAs, because i prefer the flavor (and color) but I wanted to try a more malty pale ale, just like you described. It's just that it looks like raw sewage in the fermenter so I was starting to second guess...

100% Agree. I was just worried about it tasting closer to a brown ale than a malty pale ale, if u get my meaning. I usually don't worry about colour either unless it's a NEIPA, and it's brown ;)

That looks pretty tasty. I was worried about how much the muddy brownish look would affect flavor, but if it ends up being similar to yours after a few weeks in the keg, I'm sure it will be fine.

I'm stuck with whatever I can get. Poland is not a country of great diversity, that goes for homebrewing ingredients as well unfortunately. Thanks for the info!

Ok well I guess you learn something new every brew!

Yeah you might be right, i just felt like a 5 kg grain bill isn't that much. certainly less than what I normally go for. Thanks for the help and input!

It was a normal sized batch. 5.8 gallons pre boil (22 L) OG was 1.058. So I guess writing 5 gallons earlier was just a dumb conversion mistake by me EDIT: POST boil ofcourse, not pre boil. My head is not screwed on right today

batch size is 5 gl

Yeah, u are right. I was considering that as well but just it looks so massively brown ;) Detailed malts: Pale malt, castlemalting, 7-10 ebc, color 9 Viking caramel malt 30 6-10 EBC, color 8 Munich malt - Bestmalz - 11-20 EBC, color 15 Vienna malt Castlemalting, 4-7 EBC, color 6.

Hi guys, I just brewed a version of a pale ale recipe I found on here, and it came a lot darker than I had thought it would. I used 6 pounds pale malt (castle malting) 2 pounds vienna 2 pounds munich 0.5 pounds caramel 30 I expected an amber color for sure, like 12-15 srm maybe, but not this...

haha thanks for this man, I made the incredible dumb mistake of thinking 3/8 was the same as 3/16 tubing in terms of inner diameter. Living in metric world, these confused the **** out of me. I got some chech flow control taps, but I have to have them on the absolute minimum setting to avoid the...
