im using ale yeast though

sounds good! I will do as you said and keep you guys updated. Ive decided im gonna brew a sort of psuedo lager with dry hopping. Theres a brand that does a dry hopped lager which my wife loves.

thank you both for replying! if I add like half a tsp, or even a bit lit, can I expect the beer to dry out but just a bit? I am planning on adding it to the fermenter itself and not the wort. If however, you are telling me that a small amount of amylase will do exactly the same as a regular...

Hi, I searched the forums but did not find a definitive answer and beersmith does not show any change in fg. will amylase enzyme lower fg in a non complex extract recipe?

Hey guys, I brewed an extract version of this and it turned out great! 21 Liter total steeping: 0.2KG melanoiden 0.25 Crystal 120L 0.1 Caramalt Boil: 3kg of Wheat DME 30g of Hallerauer Mittelfrueh 2g of centennial and 1pkg of wyeast 3068 The centennial was just to add needed IBU's as my...

reviving an old thread. anybody make this or similar lately and got any tips?

final update and summary for everyone: I made a beer and with bad timing, bottled after 5 days. 2. I overprimed a bit 3. started getting gushers 4. decided to unvent all of my beers and re-seal them with a bottle capper. 5. I let all my beer sit in room temperature for over a week. 6. I put some...

I used 180 grams of dextrose and ended up having 58 beers of 330, at 18C while bottling. my og was 1.048 and FG was 1.010 The problem? I bottled after 5 and a half days because I had planned an overseas trip, and I saw the airlock stop bubbling. my gushers are beers which have time to pour...

at the moment Im not seeking an answer. I was checking on the forum what people do when they have gushers. people always say: try venting and recapping etc', but I never saw someone type what he did and what came out. so I figured I may as well write this and update whenever I have an update.

UPDATE: a taste from the primary gives a distinct clove and banana flavor, with more of clove, but not bad as I thought and not as bad as my friends wheat beers were. my beer is a dunkel weinsthepaner and cant wait to bottle and taste a better conditioned beer.

as my title says, made 2 mistakes. got minor gushing after 2 weeks of bottle conditioning. today I vented all of my beers and recapped. hopefully i was able to fix this. why am I writing this? It seems there are no definite answers for this on the forum. This is always suggested but never...

Go for it! I am a newbie still, but from friends homebrews citra is pretty dominant. I wooild use citra for bittering and el dorado for flavor and aroma.

thank you! yes I mean fermentation. have a great day

Asking due to the amount of airspace which will be available.

Thank you for the explanation and especially regarding the note of wheat dme ingredients. I will be sure to contact the store and change my order! Does more wheat in my batch, make it basically more\less clovy? I ask as obviously wheat malt will also either contribute or not contribute to the...

Hey guys, Just as the title says. How to calculate pitch rate for low clove flavor hefe? My recipe is extract with steeping grains, 50\50 on the wheat\light dme, 3068 liquid yeast, 21L and gonna try and do 23-24C fermentation during first few days. I was thinking of calculating a about 70...

update to the interested: Brewed this exactly as recipe said. Fell short a bit on the OG, probably dme stuck in the bag. Added 1oz of mosaic, 0.5oz cascade and maybe 0.25oz of centennial which i had lying around to whirlpool. Wort is super floral and citrusi with just the right amount of bittering.

I'm about to brew this tomorrow. I got the exact same recipe with US05 and I plan on adding half an Oz of Cascade 7% and another 1oz of amarillo and do a 10 minute low temp whirlpool. Will also use some finings during end of primary

Thanks for the explanation! I'll think of something and do it in my next batch, I'll keep you posted :) I do 5.5 gallons in a fermenting bucket. Since its a high abv, should I let it sit in secondary to age for a month? Or should I just let it sit in primary until bottling?

Hey everybody, fairly new here but have been reading quite a lot! as the title says, i am looking for a nice triple belgian extract recipe. I am able to do a small partial\mini mash as well. Any thoughts or links to a recipe from within the forum?
