Nectaron/sabro/citra NEIPA with verdant yeast. I was careful with sabro but still tons of vanilla and coconut. Tastes good tho. It is bottle conditioned BTW

Wow this technique really helps to pronounce the smell. No metallic smell. Unpleasant smell but i cant put my finger on it what its like. Maybe little bit medicine?, mild nail polis remover? Now i remember that smell. I did forced diacetyl tests when it was fermenting and it brought out that...

Seems like it didnt work out:drunk: Is ut possible to get a sample to some lab? And "see" whats inside? I were thinking about NA brewing but now i feel like making my brews even stronger

I'll give it a shot Thats explains why i felt its taste too before. Great that i have starsan now. If cleaning/replaceing spigot and extra cleaning wont help I'll make some simple batch or even extract to test out leaving something in the FV for longer (ie +2 extra weeks). YES. Bravo. Much...

Update. This spigot inner part was almost impossible to pull out from its shell without it almost breaking. It is unusable now but atleast i know what is inside Edit: that was random spigot i had in my kit. So probably all that have been used look similar. But i dont know how is it possible...

Yes. That i always have taken apart as well as all parts of autosiphon. The spiggot is only thing that i overlooked bc i was afraid that afterwards it will leak. I was worried at first but since i didnt have any infections(until now) i didnt bother. Since i cant change the past we will see how...

Ressurecting this thread Did you or anyone do it? How was it? I mean it sounds like having fresh "flameout/ whirpool" hops right before bottling. Wich could lead to better aroma and/or overcarbonation from hop creep? Or just use seperate pots. One for priming solution and other one for hop...

I take all the gravity samples from the spigot. And when i bottle i dont use it but crack the lid and autosiphon beer out of the fv into the bottling bucket. And use siphon to bottle from the bottling bucket. I try to fill few 220ml botles every batch wich i call brewers tasting bottles. Those...

Now when i think of it. Few boxes of bottles were in the humid basement. An two carboard boxes had very little bit off mold on them. I wanted to throw them away and set them aside but in the end i ended up putting the filled and capped bottles back into those boxes. Can the bacteria from mold...

Spigot of the FV. And it may be the case. But its interesting that vulrnable wort doesnt get infected(read taste infected) from that spiggot for 2 weeks it sits in the FV. And only after 2 more weeks in the bottles it developes offlavors. Next batch will definetly use new plastic bucket and...

But it wasnt. I used fresh new bottling bucket wich i also cleaned and sanitized before first use.

You are right. I have to take a closer look on my process and be more thorough with all the tiny things next time. No there is none. I am super thankful for the support and for thinking along. If you get any more ideas please speak up :yes: I will bottle my west coast tommorow and will see if...

It was this mango ipa and it wasnt good. (Its hard to explain in english) but i think it is bit dry and metallic or copper like but nothing too much like blood or rust. If i kept it in my mouth longer it felt more and more (not sour) but acidic or it kinda sting my tounge if you can say that.

I just drank some of that beer. Its 6.9% Abv and tastes better after one bottle🤣 I Feel like i want to throw everything beer related i have into the trash and start from scrach. It so frustrating to waste lot of money. And more importantly a lot of time just to get something crappy. And whats...

Exactly that. Plastic spiggot on plastic bucket

So there is chance the issue is not at bottling but something prior to that. Like the infected spiggot. Tho beer have always tasted fine when bottling. But maybe this "infection" or whatever it is needs more time to really appear in taste?

Never have.:rolleyes:

Yes. never had issues with fruit addition. It was my third time doing this Mango IPA. First time i added 1.2kg of fresh mangoes peeled, cut and pastorized myself. It was by far best beer I made but felt i will use more mangoes next time. Second time I used locally produced pure and 100% mango...

I have added fruit always after fermentation or at the very end of it. Never used secondary vessel. Never had problems or infections with fruit before. Pinapple was store bought pastorized 100% puree. Mango was just fruit wich i peeled chopped and pastorized myself. Pinapple IPA is only 2...
