That's what I thought , but there's no way I brewed a 17% abv west coat ipa kit , it's supposed be 7.5 - 8.5 added a pound of candy sugar but I'm gonna call it a bad reading on the OG

If I took a O.G. at 72 f and it was 1.139 and the the F.G at 62 and it was 1.010 what my ABV be ?

??

Got allot of cleaning to do and gotta get some co2 , anybody got any general tips for forcing , or tips for priming ? Watched some videos but would love some extra advice Thanks

****ing blows !!! This **** taste like some nasty fortified wine !

I'm totally not gonna type out every single step in the process lol

It was a Lagunitas ipa partial mash clone from this book ... We did everything by the book , the LHBS didn't have the bittering hops or the yeast the recipe called for... So we subbed the horizon hops for magnum and the wyeast 1272 American for the white labs wlp001 Cali ale yeast

And it's true , the beer smelled great , and then all the sudden smelled like puke

Our sani process is pretty tight , of course it could always be better . Our previous 5 batches came out delicious in the end

Pitched at 72f / ferm at 66 with 2 degree drift / the ipa clone had a white labs test tube .. Cali is all I can remember name wise , and the Newcastle clone had a wyeast slap pack and was an English strain ... Both strains recommended a real close ferm temp , so we went on the safe side and...

We have a fridge on a ranco temp controlled , had them fermin right under the recommended temps on the yeast because of the off Belgian flavor we steer away from .. We had it in glass for primary so we could keep an eye on it and it was a very vigorous fermentation . It was still bubbling...

So we continued racking and threw in our hops , hoping that that smell and god awful taste would settle out ... Today , 9 days later and the smell and taste are still there :( ... Sooo ... We decided to check on our Newcastle clone and it has the same funky pukey taste and smell , it's not as...

In our previous batches they had none of this off flavor , they all taste like good beer ... The clone threw away smelt awesome we were so exited when we pulled the bubble tube out and took a wiff , but something happened about half way through racking and stunk our whole kitchen up like puke...

It was a Lagunitas ipa clone recipe from that clone book lhbs sell , had some white labs Cali yeast in it and it smelt delicious until we racked into the secondary about half way through racking we disturbed the cake and it smelt like puke or baby ****

Thanks for that troubleshooting guide duboman .. It's hard to pin point out of all of that , the best I can describe it is that it taste like a Belgian triple real funky and pukey smelling , like older dish water or something

It was 1oz of cascade , for about 10 days from an un opened package

It's already been in the secondary and dry hoppin for 2 weeks , the Belgian yeast yuck flavor and smell is all over it , not even gonna waste time bottling

Ummmm , it's garbage , still smells and taste like **** ! .. 60 dollars wasted

And by the way that was English enough sir , ease back

Top it off in the ferm bucket / carboy that is *
