I'm running out of ideas so I'm hoping someone here will be able to point me in the right direction. I've got two brewing system, a half barrel and a 5G, so something to keep in mind is that my issue lies only with the half barrel system, I've done multiple batches during the time frame of my...

+ 5 Gallons Black Lager 3789

Have used Amarillo in Amber ale and it's worked out fantastic.

Let's see... 10 gallons Blond Ale 5 gallons Amber Ale 10 gallons cream ale 5 gallons White IPA 5 gallons weissbier 2986 + 35 = 3021

In line oxygenation from blichmann came today. Just in time hopefully a brew day Saturday or Sunday then.

Make IPAs only brewed with coke fired roasted malts again.
