Really tough to tell what you did here. So you took gas line from CO2 cylinder and hooked it up to the Fermzilla? If so, what was the pressure in the Fermzilla and what was your CO2 cylinder regulator pressure set at? Did you hook the CO2 up to the liquid line of the fermzilla? If you...

Second this, Nukataps are freaking amazing. Every pour I'm like "how could it even pour any better, seriously."

@Bennysthe1 what @SanPancho said is what I do. I just use a single carbonation cap on a 20oz PET bottle. I put my gelatin solution in the bottle, put the single carbonation cap on, pressurize it to like 20psi. I then take gas off my keg, pull PRV to make pressure zero in keg, then turn the...

So glad a culprit was found. I was following this thread like a good murder mystery. Nice work everyone, haha. 🍻

Only other thing I can really think is did you get your grains from a new source? is it the same brand you've always bought?

Forgot to ask, if you're not using rice hulls, do you recirculate during the mash? If not, probably not much movement and could be tough for enzymes to reach everything and it's just gelatinizing.

That's a pretty good amount of oats as well, have you ever considered using rice hulls when you have that much oats or wheat in your grist? Edit: Missed your comment about doing 50% oats in the past and no issues, though I'll agree with others, that close up looks a lot like oatmeal I'd eat for...

Man, reading this just hurts sooooooo good, lol.

Perfect, that's great to hear. Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. Very much appreciated.

I have the 15g solo system and have though about how I would larger batches of big beers. How many pounds of grain were in that batch? Also, have you tried batch sparging or using top up water at all? Just curious if so, how it worked out for you. I don't see myself doing many 10G batches of...

I'm in Hilliard/Dublin area and would be down for sharing as well. We just put a new patio in that's dying to be broken in, haha. Info on the club, we still meet every month. This month on June 26th we will meet in person at a local craft brewery. July we have a large group brew at a local...

how big of a batch were you trying to brew there?

There is a Facebook group for the club, but I'm not 100% sure if it's private or not. I don't really do much Facebook anymore but there is definitely WAY more info in there. Let me see what I can find for you.

If you end up getting this, I have a 15g Spike grain basket you may also be interested in.

That's a good question and I don't know that I have the answer (i've only been member since Jan). I think the summer months they plan events such as big brew days and what not to do as a group vs having standard meeting. I unfortunately missed last months meeting so I'll have to dig though my...

I am! www.sodz.org should be all you need to get signed up. I just joined maybe 4-5 months ago and meetings have been virtual, but we have some in person events/meetings coming up I believe.

Ahhh dang, I just moved to the west side of Columbus. Are you part of SODZ homebrew club by chance?

@Buckeye_Hydro I'm getting ready to buy a system and would love some advice. looking at the premium RO system at the moment. I have a couple of these Amazon Link that I'll fill with the system. Do you have any auto shutoff systems that would potentially work with one of those containers? I'm...

Ahhh, ok, totally following you now. I use beersmith and have used both my Spike basket for batches, and also a brew bag for batches (and also a combination of the two) and haven't noticed a difference. I just use the standard BIAB mash profiles in beersmith and they haven't steered me wrong...
