I have a 6 month old Brett B Belgian Saison that I'd like to Bottle. I am concerned about having bottle bombs for obvious reasons. And advice for me? Should I shoot on the low side of carbonation? 2.0? 2.3? Standard bottles ok?

This browing can also be caused by downy/powdery mildew.

I did a mini mash because my LHBS isnt have enough belgian pils. I have not tried this side by side yet but I am very happy with the results. Search Sofie in the Wild Forum/ Good Luck Dingmans Pils- 4lbs Flaked Wheat -2lbs White Wheat-1lbs Light Pils DME -3 Pounds Mash at 156 Pitched...

Mashing as we speak. I upped the FWH to 1 oz. Plan to dry hop 3.5 ounces in the keg. I am also going to add my 0 min hops in at 180 degree and allow them to steep for 30 min. I used my hoppy water profile of: Calcium(Ca):103 ppm Magnesium(Mg): 15 ppm Sodium(Na): 8.7 ppm Chloride(Cl): 32...

I brewed a Pale Ale with my Half Acre Daisy Cutter Grain bill. 6 oz wet cascade FWH 1 pound wet of Zues, Cascade and Centennial were thrown in during the last 10 min, with a big flame out charge. I am going to keg hop with 1 ounce each of freshly dried Zues, Cascade and Centennial. It is...

Step one: Email the brewery. Tell them you dig their beer and ask for help brewing a homebrew version. Never hurts to ask. Good Luck.

Nice problem to have, get brewing! P.S Feel free to send some my way!!

GVH Dan, Thanks for the in depth explanation.

Also from what I have read, it is commonly reccomended to remove roughly 80% of mosture. Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but this is my understanding.

Vinnie from RR said on a pod cast he would not bottle a sour before 1.008, FYI.

Cant hurt to freeze them and retain as much "goodness" as possible. Probably wont hurt to just throw them in the fridge either, considering it is only a week or so. Report back on your dry hop results.

1st of all you dont want to dry them in the sun. With 3.5 ounces wet, I would multiply that by .2 to give you .7 Your final amount of .6 seems about right.

I am no expest but the 1st looks like centennial and the 2nd looks like cascade.

3133+3 = 3136 Wet Hopped Edition!

Just brewed This with all fresh off the bine centennial hops. Hoping if turns out well.

Good Soil(add manure and compost), Lots of sun 6-10 hours per day, Some type of support stsyem to allow bines to reach 12-20 feet. Great Lakes Hops also sells "starter plants" rather than rizomes. Im not an expert but I did harverst 10 pounds wet from my first year plants. :)

I have undeveloped Zeus cones that have very similar browning. I know for a fact that they are not ready to be harvested. I email Great Lakes Hops (where I bought it) I will report back with what they recommend once they email me back.

Can anyone tell me the water profile used for this recipe?
