The left is 7 pounds of blueberries pureed. There will be no way not to change color should you go with actually berries.

You are right you won't remove any unfermentable/residual sugars, you will just be diluting them. No one said adding after fermentation , I said" as long as the new sugar ferments ". If you are adding water or alcohol to a final volume of beer you most certainly are thinning it out as the total...

Raising ABV adds alcohol which lowers FG, therefore thins it out some. If I have a beer that is too sweet I'll add honey making ABV higher but it always brings the final gravity down as long as the new sugar ferments. Alcohol is less dense than water.

Either way see how it finishes and again you can add more sugar/honey to thin and bring up abv if it ends up weaker and thicker than you wanted. :mug:

Yeah that didn't leave much wiggle room. I think I would have sacrificed a little starch water and replaced with cold water as you can always add more sugar later. I've had to dump a little before when my grain bill was over 50 pounds on an imperial stout and beersmith missed my strike water...

Looks like you mashed between 158-161.6 farenheit. It should make a very heavy beer. Doubt you will hit your 8% mark but you can always add honey or sugar to raise abv and thin it out some. A little cold water would have went a long way to cool it down in a hurry. You could have just subtracted...

What type of beer line are you using in your kegerator?

TLDR Skipped most of this thread because there is a way to use your set up as is. Don't put your probe in water or against the fermenter. Try to get it centered away from the space heater somewhere. You won't get drastic temp swings in the fermenter when you do a over and under shoot of 2...

You only have enough bottles for less than half of one of your 6 gallon batches. Since you have kegs one would assume you have a CO2 setup for using said kegs. Fill kegs and force carbonate, bottle the remainder if you must for the experience. You will end up with between a 6 pack and a 12 pack...

That statement just blew my mind!

Welded fitting vs. not welded fittings, no grungy gaskets or random leaks seems to be a pretty easy decision. Just my 2 cents.

Mission accomplished!:rock:

Beano. FG 1.080 would be a dumper for me. You are already at 12% so mission accomplished on that end. You could split the batch in half and add back water and sugar ( honey is my preference ) to get a beer that would be more drinkable.

Amazon is about the only place to get your hands on a 60 Amps GFCI at an almost reasonable price. Homedepot, Lowes, and Menards have been out forever. I would say just get the 60 Amp so you can proceed with out making sure you have employed enough conservation techniques or that you may have to...

With 1.5 pounds lactose and mashing at 156 ( I did this with 12 oz lactose in a 6 gallon batch ) seems like you a pushing the limits of cloying sweet which to me always disqualifies a beer as enjoyable/drinkable. You mentioned earlier that you were using maple syrup for sure, but I don't see it...

2.76 oz on a 1.5" tri-clamp cap. Edit- Haha didn't even see @Imhoppy beat me to it. Read it, weighed it, posted it.😀 As always weight will vary by manufacturer.

I boil triclamps and triclamp caps then toss in the starsan so they can be handled. They weigh the bag down perfectly. Been doing this for years.

Hmm. Sense you were shooting for super low ABV anyway, maybe just turn it into a fruited beer by adding fruit juice. It will add body and usually will make the beer very drinkable. It will hit your ABV a little but you were never going to get a buzz off your intended beer anyway.

Time wise it all depends on how many beers you plan to have on tap. Every additional tap adds time. If you are talking about something simple like the average kegerator that would have one tap or double tap tower you could probably mount a tower to a minifridge ( both cheap off Marketplace is...
