Nice. I don’t have any kegs larger than. Sixtel so I’m aiming to be at 5-5.25 gallons. The freestyle riwaka my buddy has is great, I think you’ll really dig it

I’m excited for this one. Yep, this is for 5 gallons. It’s currently a little under 6 gallons in the FV

Wrapping up the last 12 hours or so on the dryhop. Hitting the keg tomorrow. Double hazy ipa OG: 1.088 FG: 1.024 Abv: 8.4% Dryhoped with Freestyle Peacherine, Freestyle Motueka, and Citra Cryo/t90

I know this thread is graduating high school but I don’t know why the op wouldn’t bottle after a month in primary and store the bottles at lagering temp, that would essentially be lagering. In my kegs. I always carbonate my kegs and then leave in the kegerator to lager

I don’t play with any of you and only doing one league this year as life is busy and can’t manage as many as I used to but pretty pumped with my starters in my 12 team or league. Let’s hope the giants defense is as improved as I think they are. You can tell from my roster I’m expecting a big...

Round 2…. Fidens and Wayward Lanes collab. Wayward has been killing the past 3 years in both nation and nys commercial competition being named best NY brewery 2 of the 3 years. Love seeing them use Columbus and it comes through with a great dankness in the finish

Grabbed a few 4 packs from fidens today. This triple is really good!

It actually finished 1.012 I believe. That said I mashed high to keep some body and prevent the rice solids from having it dry it out too much

I don’t know this for sure, but is the brass nut the PRV? I have a few pieces of equipment where you loosen a nut/screw of sorts and it allows the air to escape. The person who will be able to tell you how it works exactly is @Bobby_M as he owns BrewHardware

@BrewMan13 hands down makes the best gruits I’ve ever had. Maybe he’ll chime in

Def didn’t read that haha I have thread adhd. I see someone post about combos and ratios and look at all the hops they list and my brain goes to town lol Sorry @kurds_2408 lol. If you’re pretty set on Motueka and riwaka then you almost need to go with citra. All nz hops have the “nz flavor”...

If you’ve never done Rakau, Citra, Nelson before, I highly suggest it. One of my favorites. Citra and rakau whirlpool 1:1. Citra, Rakau, Nelson dryhop 1:2:1 Whirlpool rate 1 oz per gallon split between the hops Dryhop 2.5oz per gallon between the hops. If the amounts get wonky weight wise...

If that were true I’d need a EpiPen by now lol. I think it’s something like 70 of the US beer market is heavy hopped beers. Between that and the sheer number of individuals that work in the industry in agriculture, processing and beer making, there would have to be data at this point

I’ve been burnt out on brewing hoppy beers this past year. I just feel like they haven’t come out their best and it annoys me. People who try them still think they’re great but I’ve been very “Meh” about them. I think it’s palate fatigue on heavily hopped beers because even great commercial ipas...

Bru’n water spreadsheet. Spot on with ph and ppms, especially when using RO water

Correct on the assuming your pretty much have zero alkalinity. I don’t worry about the alkalinity much at all because when you target your ph, the acid will counteract that anyway (my base water starts at 124ppm of alkalinity). The only time I’d worry if I was above 180ppm, then I’d probably...

I’ll def report back. I ended up going with this recipe yesterday but dropped to one decoction and only did 2 steps in the mash to try to prevent too much perceived sweetness
