Or is it just some paste from the wheat malt? I'm sure I sanitized everything with star san star san ph was 2.9 when I used it And I'm sure no oxygen got in Or maybe they're just the yeast having formed a clump

I'm gonna try making high gravity beer I've found a recipe The og is 1.089 I have a 12L carboy and that's the biggest carboy I can fit inside my mini fridge for temp control So my batch volume will be 8L How much yeast should I pitch for an 8L wort with this high of a gravity? I have a used and...

I like the idea of magnets but I think the hops will lose too much oil before they are added, right? since they're not in the freezer anymore

I have some potassium metabisulfate but I'm afraid that might stop yeast activity and cause bottle conditioning issues Also, I've had that you should dry hop when fermentation is over so that the aroma isn't taken away by the gas

Hi I don't have a keg or a co2 tank, and this time I'd like to dry hop my homebrew, I can use the magnets method, but I think at 20c, the hops will lose a lot of oils before fermentation is complete. Right? I wanna know if it's possible to collect the CO2 during fermentation in a balloon, then...

Yes, thanks for the response, that's the yeast I'll use next time

I don't know how old the yeast is, someone sent me a repacked version of the 500g pack But I'll give it a try I recently brewed an oatmeal stout with us05, fermented at 18-20c, it ended up with a funny fruity aroma and flavor , maybe a little bit of citrus? Could it be the hops I used? I used...

But it'll end up fruity right?

Trying to use this yeast in an oatmeal stout, because people say it usually finishes sweet, but I don't want the spicy notes, is it clean at lower temps? I have s04 too

My mini fridge can't go above 21.6, the thermostat sensor is inside the fv I'm hoping to get bananas with that temp Didn't wanna risk making fusel alcohols

Made a wort with an og of 1.048 But the final volume was lower than I expected so I added 1L of water from my RO system I think it has a filter to remove chlorine, not sure if I've done the right thing I'm fermenting at 21.6c, hoping to get a lot of banana

The problem is I can't find any of those malts in my country There's just pilsner,amber, biscuit, caramel crystal 60l and 120l, black patent and roasted barley, pale chocolate malt

How about some amber malt? The problem is that the commercial beers I'm used to are somewhat sweet But I haven't made a sweet beer yet It's always so dry Tastes like a hop tea

First I need to apologize for adding too many threads I really think I need to know things before I try anything new I don't want things to end up in disaster I want to brew a sweet beer Like Scotch ale Found a recipe It says the fg is 1.020 Now my question is why should an ale yeast stop in...

Lagers are always my first choice of drinking for their clean flavor which allows a malty-hoppy flavor I don't like the fruity taste of most ales But I cant find a lager yeast right now, the only yeast I have is s04 Is there any recipe to a malty beer? One that tastes very close to a malty...

Can't find Munich malt in my country but I've heard they're technically the same thing, the difference is that Munich malt is kilned for a longer period of time? I have an oven, how can I do that? I can also use pilsner malt

I don't want to dry hop the whole batch cause I might not like the dry hopped version Can I pour some sterilized water into a sanitized bottle in which there are hop pellets, let them soak for 3 days then filter the hop water and pour it into the beer? I don't have a CO2 tank so dry hopping...

Since CO2 is heavier than O2,I think it will insulate the surface of the beer against o2 even after fermentation ends, not very scientific, but true?? I'm worried that tiny of a hole might come back cause I'm not home and I didn't shut that hole very well But it was a very very tiny one like the...

Yes it was definitely a leak Fixed it with some paste

What was your pitch rate and your temperature
