The only time that I have had gushers over the years is by not chilling the bottle beer long enough. In my early batches I was over eager and tried a bottle or two within 24 hours of beginning the chilling process. A few times I had "delayed gushers." One time in particular I notice more yeast...

I personally use a paint strainer bag (the same type I brew with for BIAB) when I transfer the wort from kettle to fermentor.

I highly doubt it is stuck. A milk stout especially with a decent amount of lactose will have a higher gravity. What temperature did you mash at and how much lactose did you use? If you post the entire grain bill and your process I can make a better educated statement. Both of my stouts that...

@Helly, Thanks for the the yeast recommendation. Any thoughts on the rest of the recipe?

Hi all, I looked for a clone of the Edmund Fitzgerald porter from Great Lakes on the website and found a few variations but nothing that stayed close to the specifics on the bottle and website. This is my first attempt to formulate a clone recipe and welcome all kinds of tips, suggestions, and...
