    Thanks for the advice, will definitely try that.

    Water chem ails

    🤣 I guess just trying to figure out where I've steered wrong but yes that makes sense

    Water chem ails

    Yeah, I'm aware been brewing all grin for 4- 5 years just was curious if more control of the water profile would lend to better beer. Thus starting with distilled and building a profile from scratch. Just ... doesn't seem to work out.

    Water chem ails

    Saw a couple posts suggesting going that high. I know they're all old. Definitely new territory for me so maybe I'm just screwing it all up

    Water chem ails

    Brun water and at this point prediction only as I really don't ha e the cash for a decent ph meter at the moment. Which means yeah, i guess I have no real clue what's going on. Profile depends on the beer. Last apa I made was in this ballpark, after scouring a bunch of threads on pale ale...

    Water chem ails

    I have changed brewing process recently to using distilled water and building profile from scratch using brew salts. Honestly I feel my beers tasted better prior to doing this using just my tap water but since I was unable to get a reliable water profile from where I am I figured that was the...

    Ugh prv was open

    Well i was out of town for a while as it sat around conditioning on tap. tastes like ass, was the bee cave hauspale ale but with armirrilo. Honestly just reminds me of cheap swill. Did attenuate down more than I planned ... as opposed to the 1.051 - 1.011 as written, ended up around 1.054 -...

    Irish Red Ale Raging Red Irish Red Ale

    Would this be as good without honey? Or any substitution ... red (huh huh) on page 2 of someone using brown sugar instead

    Ugh prv was open

    Did not ferment under pressure but final sample prior to transfer seemed fine. Time will tell I suppose. Don't know how I missed that. Closed transfered to serving keg without a hitch. Maybe I'll just end up consuming it before off flavours set in anyways but felt better asking.

    Ugh prv was open

    Yeah sorry. Worked on my bicycle this morning so had quick release on the brain. But yes I meant prv.

    Ugh prv was open

    Fermenting a pale ale in a 5 gallon corny keg. Went to closed transfer today and found the qr was open on the fermentor. All I can think I accidentally twisted the ring while taking a gravity sample a couple days ago. Just out of habit I purge after first putting gas on it so I definitely would...

    Brun water error

    Now trying brun water with Libre office and after every input it's asking for a password and won't allow me to continue. Very frustrating

    Brun water error

    Read that shortly after posting and currently downloading Libre to retry.

    Brun water error

    Maybe this is something easily remedied, read the brun water instructions like 3 times and inputed my information numerous times. Cannot get it to give me a mash ph, just says #name? Using open office if that changes anything. It's getting a bit infuriating. I know I've tried it in the past...

    Infection

    Ended up keggin and it tasted great all the way through. I guess maybe I didn't pasteurize the fruit long enough or something. Have since thoroughly cleaned the lines and keg and haven't had any issues with brews after, but given the rate I go through beer not sure any thing has really had a...
