Double IP*L* ;)

I’m due for an new burner and this one caught my eye recently. I’m interested in your thoughts once you use it!

Mashing a saison currently. Will dry hop this beer with Nelson Sauvin per a recipe in the Ale section on HBT. I brewed one with Mosaic in November and it was so good... Looking forward to sharing this beer on the patio this summer with friends and family. Dan

But how...how is your wort so clear coming out of the brew kettle😭 Bravo! Cool basement brewery/bar, too. Dan

You’re not the guy who also bumped the other Brulosphy thread...are you?

I haven’t kegged it that way, but my samples at 2 weeks taste really good prior to adding fruit. It is, however, pretty one-dimensional without something else going on. I think even the right hop used for a light dry hop could make this a great beer. Dan

Good for you. You can beat this, but you have to be a fighter.😄

Dry hopped saison this weekend. Might do a double brew weekend and also do a blonde if I’m up for that kind of punishment...

Yes, this was a very good beer and it went quickly. I should have given it more time, as it got better after 3-4 weeks in the keg. Glad yours is good as well. No need to cry, you know how to make beer! Dan

Letting my 5lb CO2 tank empty itself through a disconnected ball lock connector 😭

Nearly a haiku

I try to avoid brews until my mash tun is cleaned out, otherwise it may not get done! I typically clean it out once the boil is stabilized and rolling along. Dan

Yeah, though it doesn’t matter for probably all of the chest freezers out there, you might as well turn it all of the way up (down? I mean the coldest setting) to ensure it’s out of the way if you want to turn your controller down to something just above freezing for cold crashing, etc. Dan

Yeah, I think the beer will be just fine. Dan

Wow, that first one is an awesome shot. And that second one; my oldest son had Sophie the giraffe when he was lil. I don’t know if we named it that, or if that was the toy name but he had the same one.

double post, sorry

I do one co-pitch beer every few months with US-05 and lacto (sour pitch) with no hops. It’s incredibly easy and always makes a great sour. I will be adding a small dry hop in to my current one to stop the souring process at a slightly less tart level to see what I think. Ive aged them all on...

Guy who can’t sleep playing with guns... :oops:

Do you share a lot of your beer? I go through 5gal batches pretty quick but I’m not sure what I’d do with 22gal! Dan

Ah, so PianoMan isn’t just a clever name... :cool:
