Thanks. I do have both boxes checked on that menu.

Sorry, for the word count but I've been struggling with calibrations and I think there are a lot of variable to cover. Here's what I did: I went thought the three point calibration process on the tilt app. The adjustments were (1) 1.004-->1.000; (2) 1.057 ---> 1.052; (3) 1.095 -->1.087. The...

This might be the best I’ve had from sapwood. Really good.

Man, I don’t know. I feel like there’s still not many making GREAT NEIPAs and they’re mainly the same players as they always were. And I still find a lot of breweries making what they call NEIPAs but, at least in my mind, and to what I’m looking for in a NEIPA, aren’t close. Maybe that’s...

Totally agree. I’d put them top 3 of our local IPA breweries. Behind Other Half DC, and comparable to Astrolab. I’ve briefly met them both and I’ve learned a ton from their books and websites. They’re a gold mine for us home brewers.

Well, in that case, I can say I don't really notice any off flavors in the Sapwood IPAs in my fridge. Given his popularity here, I wonder whether anyone has had much of his beer? Their brewery is maybe 10 min from my LHBS. I don't go as often as I should. Their selection has exploded...

It was great. I’ve done it a few times. Might try again sometime.

CO2 or oxygen?

They looked at the effect on the yeast, and basically found none. There was some effect on the cell health but not on attenuation or floc or anything that interested me. They did talk about sulfur notes, which, if I remember right were highest in the day 0 dry hop and lowest in the day 8 dry...

They compared no dry hop, dry hop on day 0, dry hop on day 4 (when fermentation ended), and dry hop on day 8 (when cold crash was completed, I.e, hopping at 40 degrees). They refer to the day 4 addition as warm to cold because the hops went at ferm temp and rode the cold crash down to 40. It’s...

Thought this might have been of interest to those following this thread.

Yeah, I’m going to end up just swapping at airgas. It’s not a big deal, just a minor preference. But all the places I’ve called only swap anyway.

I'm following the fermentation schedule you recommended to me a month or two ago. :mug:

That's where I go for co2 but I called and they don't do oxygen. Yeah, its the "flow regulator" actually. Oxygen Flow Regulator

I think when I did that mix I made it all equal 11.5g.

Wow. What a beautiful brewery!

I ended up getting one of these and a blichman flow meter: New 15 cuft Oxygen Cylinder | Gas Cylinder Source Anyone know where I can get it filled, as opposed to swapped? Airgas and Roberts swap. Which is fine, I guess. But I imagine one fill of this thing is going to last years, so I...

I've got my first batch with A24 going right now and that thing is raging. Maybe its because I'm fermenting warmer than usual, but I could can hear the bubbles through the fridge and in the next room. That has not been my experience with GY54, WLP095, or 1318.

I opened the keg and tossed them in before fermentation was complete. For this one, I think I’ll soft crash and then toss them in and use tank co2 to purge like most here do. Maybe add some AA as people suggested.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but how long can you safely wait after pitching to hook up the serving keg and still feel confident that you have enough co2 to purge it? Really I just want to be wait until there’s no blowoff.
