Wow thanks guys, i guess i bought it thinkin gi was gonna make a bunch of beers, but all the beers seem to take a long time conditioning and 6 months to a year is a very long time to make a beer, taste, then hope its good enought to keep drinking lol. Belgian blonde sounds interesting!

I just pressure fermented at 76 at 13 psi, wonder if ill get off flavors.

Title say sit all, i have a bunch, and i mean a bunch of 530, but what do i do with it besides a westy clone? Im really looking for some education here, im completely lost on this. Thanks all.

Ive tried a bunch of kveik strains and ive come to the conclusion they just arent for me. The esters left behind are atrocious and ive found that Lutra is the mildest and still pushes the esters, maybe im just getting old.

Ive been good at doing a brew a week, it was a honey, then lager, then this week a kolsch. Next week a weinsteph dunkel clone, then back to the hefe.

Doing my first pressure lager and used whirlfloc for the first time, holy mother of god why did it take me so long to find this?!!!!!!!!!!!

Dgallo, just switch to all eva and duotight man. I started with regular connections and switched the next month. Its the best and easiest way to make sure you dont have leaks. That was super important to me, a couple dollars wont hurt in the long run, i have about 15 barbs and only use 8 so...

Spot on man. Hefes want that yeast esters in there, ales, depending on what you make, im doing a honey ale saturday and gonna pressure ferment it cuz i want nothing but honey and hops in flavor. Lagers are just pure malt and hops, so pressure is its best friend. Im gonna try a hefe at 5 psi...

Ive been on duotight and EVA for about a year and some change already. It was good but no one had regulators available. Then all the sudden the white ones came in sock and i bought 11 right off the bat, now they have the rigid connectors which is great for connecting them together in case you...

I will put this to the test this weekend. Dont have a tall fermenting vessel but i do have a way to pressure ferment some lager yeast at ale temps to see if it really does have an impact on the beer.

Westy 12 clone. But more excited for the pressure fermented lger this weekend coming up.

Or if you wanna make a lager without having to ferment at low temps. Im gonna give it a try this weekend.

Its what i did. I got the brewtools b80(was gonna get a b40 at first) and can go from 5.5 gallon batches to 15 gallon batches, grain bill maxes out at 44lbs. Just did a BDS and kinda overcooked it so it came out at 1.102 but I have a big yeast starter and used some yeast nutrient and...

Ive heard ur supposed to leave it on because the glycol will grow mold if it doesnt recirculate. So I have a couple pumps with loops on it and run the periodically.

Im in!!!!!!!!!!!! Im about to pressure ferment my first lager next week and see if its everything ive been reading.

Dude we are just figuring out that maybe you cant get it twice but you can get a "flare up". Sounds dumb but I tested negative the other day but it was the same symptoms i had when i first got covid.

How do you know? Maybe itll help me out when i do mine.

The one thing that ive never understood about keggers is the push starsan to minimize o2 when transferring to a keg. I leave the top open every single time to see when its about to get full and then top it up after its full. Even on the NEIPAs i dont get a bit of oxidation or off flavor.

I make a pelligrino clone that i keep on tap. It keeps me from drinking a lot of soda, cuz i love soda, this helps a lot.

Exactly what I was gonna reply. My hefes young really has a yeast bite or a tingyness i dont know how to describe, fter 2 weeks on gas, its so mellow and perfect.
