Thanks! That's a long mash time!

I'm just about to package one I brewed a few weeks ago. The base is Pilsner and Munich, plus 3.2% each C40 and Chocolate, and 1.6% each Roasted Barley and Carafa II - SRM around 25. Are you able to share your Köstritzer clone recipe?

I just did an Idaho 7 + Chinook combo that I really like. Use anything for the bittering addition, then a 2:1 ratio of Idaho7 to Chinook for aroma, whirlpool and dry hop additions.

Strawberry/Rhubarb/Cherry Gose fermented with Lallemand Philly Sour

I had something similar looking to that before. I'm not sure what it was, but I don't think you should bottle it just yet. Whatever it is could be still fermenting. Don't ask me how I know. :)

For my 2 gallon batches I've been using 1/4 tsp of gelatin dissolved in 1/4 cup of water.

I have had good results with Knox unflavored gelatin. I cold crash in the fermenter for one day, then add the gelatin solution and let it sit for another day or two before bottling or kegging.

I assume that is a Hofmann bucket from HD? Those are food grade HDPE.

Kitchen Party Pale Ale with Chinook, Cascade, Centennial and Citra

Looks good. I used to pull the bag from the main mash and then dunk sparge in a separate pot with 170F water for 5 to 10 minutes. Now I just do a full volume BIAB mash because it's a bit easier. My efficiency is 5% to 8% less this way, but that's ok.

Mine started at 1.049 and went down to 1.008, so around 80%. It's been sitting in a keg for a week, but hasn't completely cleared yet. I didn't add any gelatin (yet).

This Hefeweizen was fermented with Danstar Munich Classic. It has nice banana flavor.

I brew similar size batches and have used S-04 many times. Half of an 11g packet of S-04 will be plenty for this 8 litre batch.

Are you able to get any Lallemand Philly Sour yeast where you are? I'm going to try it on a Gose this weekend.

I've also got a Kolsch fermenting at 16C. Mine took a couple days to get started, but seems to be going steady now.

Electric Creamsicle - Sabro Pale Ale

Can you give us your recipe, strike and sparge water amounts? Might be some clues there.

Brewed this one with Citra/Galaxy/Mosaic

Raspberry Wheat

How many volumes of CO2 were you targeting? 15g in 5l will only get you to about 1.6 volumes, which is low for a lager.
