still cant post pics, my thread count is to low. I threw them in the fridge and hopefully I can salvage some drinkable beer. This is the first time that this has happened and Ive done nothing different in my cleaning and sanitation processs. Sorry about my grammer, my truck engin blew up...

I recently brewed two batches, one was the cascades orange coriander recipie from this site and one was a extract IPA kit I received for x mas. A week a go I transfered bolth to secondaries for dry hopping. I transfered the orange/cascades first and then transfered the IPA immediatley...

I used the wyeast belgian wit and it went from1.054 to 1.010 in less than a week, under-pitched it even. Tastes good to.
