I use coriander and s33 in my blue moon clone recipe.

I used swing tops....no capping needed. Now I keg...no bottling needed. Life is good.

I've used them in the past. You can have mine lol. You can bottle condition in them but it's difficult to keep the taste right because the ones I've used rust a little. Not sure if that was the cause or not but I switched to half gallon glass bottles for this reason. If you're talking force...

I can't say I have any experience with avocado in brewing but I recently successfully brewed a peanut butter stout using actual peanuts. I read somewhere that soaking in vodka somehow took the flavor out but didn't tale out the fat. I'm curious after seeing this thread if a similar process could...

Oh and to address your question of how to keep a freezer warm enough for the beer...you can buy a temperature controller on ebay or amazon for as low as 20$ and it keeps your freezer or fridge within whatever temperature range you want it.

I love ipa's as well. If you think this will be an ongoing hobby, and if you think you or friends will drink enough, look into making a keezer. That way you can have 4-5 kegs at a time. And it's really easy, just an investment early on. I bottled for the last 2 years, and I wish I'd kegged...

How much for 10 lbs?

And even worse if those hops aren't fresh or are improperly stored.

I've done lots of research about this topic. A bottle will carbonate the same with 1/2" headspace as 2" headspace. It is dependent on sugar. Leaving more headspace leaves more oxygen, which can speed up carbonation due to yeast using oxygen, but you run risk of leftover oxygen in your beer...

I'd still be worried about them not being vacuum sealed for that long. But that's me. If you're able to, do a split batch with old hops and brand new hops.

I thought I was saving money buying hops by the pound and storing in the freezer in a ziploc. I ruined so many ipa's this way... finally switched to fresh hops, haven't had the problem since.

All sold

Well I'm referring to the pellets in the ziplocs too that you posted in the pics

I suspect those hops for some of the issue. I used to do the same thing with my hops and they were ruining my ipa's. Always use fresh vacuum sealed hops.

I have one and fit 4 5g cornys on the floor, and a 3g corny plus my 10 lb tank on the compressor shelf. Maybe that's been mentioned but I don't have time to read through all the posts.

I have a question for you. How long have those hope been in those ziploc bags in the freezer?

I have noticed that after filling and carbonating my 4th keg in my keezer, I am getting a little less pressure out of the faucet on all of my kegs. Is this normal? My thoughts about justifying this is that there is more air space for the tank to fill which takes longer to equalize as you're...

Get away from lme... that date to me is old... I had a very weird botter flavor as well I couldn't fix. So many things could be the issue... Best advice I can give is don't give up lol Every thing you try to eliminate makes your beer better. I had a combination of many poor factors that were...
