Like mentioned, follow your normal bottling procedures with one addition as far as i can tell (And as i did): Transfer to bottling bucket Add priming sugar for carbonation Add about 2-3 grams of rehydrated dry-yeast to the bottling bucket before bottling it (To make sure there is enough...

I know what you mean, although we are going for the full year of cellar storage (If we can wait). I will send you a PM regarding swapping a few bottles when the time comes :) On a sidenote, our fermentation are at 1.015 atm, after 10 days, slowly inching down towards 1.013 where we will put...

Hi SusiQ. Thank you for sharing this information. I also live in Norway and hunted high and low for the original Syrups from Candi Syrup Inc. Did not think to try any of the local options as i wanted to try this recipe and wanted the products it was made from to have as a comparison for later...

Hoping i did not mess anything up, but i got the idea that the reason krausen is building up is due to the fact that CO2 is beeing released from the wort into the foam, which traps it into bubbles and causing it to rise. So i decided to take a big sanitized spoon and sweep it carefully back and...

Just a FYI to those who want to try and brew this: This was expected, but i was hoping i had left enough headroom in my fermenters to avoid it. Using 30L (7.9 gallons) fermentors filled to 23L (6.1 Gallons) and these pictures were taken at about 30 hours while the fermentors are still kept at...

Brewed this last night, started waay too late and did not finish until 3 am...so in half-zombie mode at work today, but i'll get past it hopefully. Brewed a 42L batch (11.1 gallons), but used too much sparge water and ended up with 46L (12.1 gallons) in fermenters (Not complaining, and extra...

See your points there. My problem is that I have no reference point regarding taste, so I will not know if this yeast produces some off-flavors of any kind. First time I am going to try this and had to get the syrup from afar since there are no dealers of these products here in Norway. Would...

I am well aware of the WY3787 and/or WLP530 recommended using with this brew, but as i stumbled upon this dry yeast called "SAFBREW BE-256" (earlier called Safbrew Abbaye as i understand it) I could not help but wondering if any of you fine people out there has tried this yeast with this brew...
