Okay thanks, I did some adjustments based on you guys advice.

Yeah it's Thomas Fawcett Oat malt. With syrup I mean extract :) how much hop would you guys advise for a typical belgian tripel?

No one?

Yes with. I gave it a swirl and put the temp higher (21°C) in a fermentation chamber because apparently the temp in my living room was too low in the corner where the bucket was standing. Water lock is showing activity again.

I brewed this but the FG seems stuck at 1.035 i think the combo of lactose + cara malt + high mash temp gave to much unfermentables. Maybe I can pitch some bry-97 that i have on hand? I followed your advice to add more lactose. I also mashed at 155 and replaced the chocolate. Also added some...

Hi, I'm brewing this recipe soon: Batch size: aiming for 4 liters (1 gallon) to go in the fermentation vessel. Malt: - extra premium pilsener weyermann 75% - brewferm munich 15% - carapils weyermann 5% - flaked wheat 5% Single mash at 66°C (151°F) for 60 min. Boil 75 min. Hops: 2,5 gr...

Hm I see, another thing I learned today. I think I will (re-)introduce a sparge to my process then. Recently I didn't do it anymore because all the water fitted in my mash tun (biab).

I do a sparge but with the same water thats already in the kettle

I don't have sparge water, I just pump the water around in my mash kettle [emoji3]

Using ez water calculator I should add around 10 ml lactic acid to reach a mash pH of 5.35. Is tannic bitterness something that you get when the mash pH is too high?

Actually, I didn't use any minerals ( 3 ppm sulfate in the natural water) until now and my session ipa always came out quite bitter (purely due to the hops probably). The bitterness is quite harsh so I got the advice to optimize the mash pH and I thought the optimize the minerals as well.

No no not for the ratio. Just the values. Need to start somewhere, right? [emoji3]

Okay, so no ratio! :p Right now I think I will go for 100 chloride and 150 sulfate. My goal is a session ipa and not a session new england ipa ... hard to figure that out for myself. It seems clear that there is no definitive or universal water profile. Also, probably the most people won't...

Hi, I'm figuring out a water profile and for now I decided for a chloride to sulfate ratio of 0.22. What ratio do you guys use and how did they turn out? The beer is a session ipa with only pale malt and an abv of 4.3%. Used hops are chinook & mandarina bavaria.

Yes indeed. So I added the chinook a few days ago when the SG where 1.016. Now waiting on final FG to add the rest of the dryhops. The type of beer. Hard to say, its a session ipa where i wanted some elements of a neipa in it. Lets just call it an IPA? Its hard for me to think in boxes [emoji16]

Hi, After some reading up about bioconversion of hop oils I wanted to do the following: - Throw in a first load of pellet hops when the SG is 1.015 (I always get 1.011 FG). - Throw in the second load of pellet hops the day after this first load - Let them soak for 2 more days - 1 day...
