Okay, crap. Now I have a question. Not trying to stray off topic. I think this could help beervoid be sure of what they are dealing with here. I'm pretty familiar with what I think is an ester profile that I can pick up to a varying degree in some lagers. I always get that as more of a...

Happy to help! Maybe some others will come along with an option E that works even better for you. Yeah...unfortunately, our worlds are all the more susceptible to ads these days. Google just keeps selling more of their front page and it can be extremely frustrating. Maybe give something like...

Haha! Yeah, probably a little too bold for me. If you go that route I'd definitely leave out the fact that the delay is for lagering a a beer 😅 Yeah, once you finish the ramp and hold it for a couple days that should be good. I'm on mobile right now so can't help too much with the research. I...

In my experience ARL is a bit of a fickle beast, being a wild yeast and all. It didn't want to start in the mid 50s for me but then took off with a roar when I nudged it up a few degrees. It's mostly been pretty aggressive for me at the temps you mention. Despite being pretty aggressive and a...

Welcome, newbie! 😂 So the issue here is that you're (maybe) not going to be able to finish up fermentation before you need to get out of Dodge? So long as the beer is done then travel shouldn't be too bad, right? Maybe I am missing something but I would say just call an audible on the ferm...

(We're Not) The Jet Set - John Prine RIP you old SOB

I read this as you saying you held it at 16C until day 5 and then let it freerise to 21C starting on day 5. Is that right? If so, from my experience I wouldn't see an issue with those times and temps. When following a similar schedule with 34/70 the beer is usually drinking pretty clean with...

The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald - Gordon Lightfoot

Nice pic! Looks like you have some good advice so far, so I'll point out something a little different. I don't think it's more important than what others are saying here. Just another bit of advice to consider as you prepare for next steps. Do a dry/wet run of as much of your bottling process...

Moonage Daydream - David Bowie

Hi there! Here is the BSG page for potassium metabisulfite. You can see they say that typical usage is 1-2 g/hL, which gives you 10-20ppm. They also say maximum usage generally shouldn't exceed 100ppm, so that would be 10 g/hL. You have 10.5 liters or .105 hL. So 10 g/hL for .105hL leaves you...

I agree except for the part about it making it hard to say what I regret. For me, regretting something is not the same as saying I would do it differently. I've done plenty of boneheaded 💩 that I regret. I've made bad decisions. I've treated people poorly. I've been disappointed in myself. I try...

Also, I was going to joke that Alex might need an intervention before he needs another keg. I've got no room to judge, though. And a new keg would solve this specific problem 😂

For the Sake of the Ashes - Pat the Bunny

My knee jerk reaction is to say #2 because of sanitation concerns, but my answer is #1. The way I see it there isn't much of a difference between #2 and #1 here. If either beer has a high level of contamination then either of the first two options is doomed to fail anyway. I say trust your...
