I am going to try Omega Yeast Cosmic Punch in my next NEIPA. What would you recommend as mash hop for boosting the triols? WP will be Cryo Pop or similar T90 blend. DH will be Nectaron. And keg hop will be bit of Citra cryo.

Link to European webshop?

I am aiming for 230 Cl. To get there I start with adding NaCl until Na is 100. Then I add CaCl to get the remaining Cl. Works nicely. Be sure to use NaCl without iodine. Yeast don't like iodine.

I think it is nuttyness. I will switch back to wheat malt next time.

I am wondering why my last beer tastes so strange... It is first time I have 22% spelt malt. How would that affect the taste compared to having 22% wheat malt? 67% Pale 22% spelt malt 11% oat malt

I have tasted lovely Eukanot Citra and Eukanot Mosaic neipas. So I tried this: 6 kg Pale 2 kg spelt malt 1 kg oat malt OG 1069 FG 1014 Mash: 70 g Centennial Hot: 50 g Citra 50 g Talus 25 g Loral 25 g Idaho-7 50 g Eukanot Cold: 125 g Ekuanot 100 g Citra 75 g Amarillo Serving keg: 50 g Mosaic...

@HopsAreGood tried that combo back in 2021: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/northeast-style-ipa.568046/post-9074797

Beer B spend 3 days at approximately 10 C (including a short 1/2 day spike to 20C, due to me misplacing the temperature sensor), followed by 4 days at - 2C. My point is that there are still more goodness to extract from the dry hop if you follow this schedule. And more time at 10C will extract...

What should have been an evaluation of the effect of keg hops turned out to be an interesting tasting with an unexpected lesson. I keged my last neipa this Wednesday though closed transfer from a dry hop pressure fermenter to the keg. In the fermentation flushed keg I had suspended 50 g Mosaic...

Sure, I do cold crash and rack to a fermentation flushed pressure fermenter (SnubNose v3) before dry hopping and shaking. My last NEIPA had the most hop intensity of all my NEIPAs. It was dry hopped at 10 C/50 F. Will stay on 10 C for my next brew.

10-14C in 48-72 hours. Shake a few times each day. Then cold crash. 300 g to 20 L.

@Dgallo how was your raw neipa received in the club?

Do you remove your WP hops when transferring the wort to the fermenter? Or do you let the WP hops into the fermenter? I guess I am supposed to remove them, but then WP hopping with loose pellets it is hard to separate them completely from the wort before the transfer.

OMG 400 pages. Such a nice style worth developing for perfection.🎉
