    Help me perfect my Low Oxygen IPA process

    Morebeer is 26 for both plus shipping. so more like 35 out the door. SO more about that gelatin addition. I don't really need to but I've read that it helps smooth out the beer. It certainly won't make it clear. When would you add it?

    Help me perfect my Low Oxygen IPA process

    That is very very helpful. I was struggling with the idea of dry hop and adding gelatin. I figured that the small head space in the keg was better than the large headspace in the fermenter. I do about 5-6 purges but I'll just to 10-15 and that way I only need to expose the beer to O2 one...

    Avoid oxidation clogged dip tube

    Cool, that was my next question. I'll order one now. Seems like a good investment period. If you want to gelatin fine, you just add it to the keg and stop drinking when you start sucking up muck.

    Help me perfect my Low Oxygen IPA process

    So I finally made (in my opinion) a proper NE IPA. I've struggled with this one for a long time and I believe it came down to cold side low oxygen tactics and reducing dry hop time. It was also a total pain in the @$$ and I want to improve my process. I'd like some good suggestions on how...

    Avoid oxidation clogged dip tube

    I have a NE IPA that I’ve taken every precaution to keep away from o2. I didn’t fully seal the dry hop bag and the keg keeps clogging. I’ve back purged and re cleaned the dip tube and post, even shortened the dip tube and it’s still clogging. The only thing I can think of is buy a dip tube...

    star san bite to NE IPA

    Thanks guys! Yeah I never really thought it had to do with actual star san, just the best way I could describe the bite The other thing I was thinking of was adding gelatin to speed up anything dropping out of it. I had added it at cold crash but maybe I transferred too much yeast cake.

    star san bite to NE IPA

    no butter, butterscotch or otherwise flavors, so I wasn't thinking diacetyl. I was thinking o2 as well. Probably right day_trippr. it might mellow out in a week or so. cool stimulator.

    star san bite to NE IPA

    I felt like that was the most descriptive I could be! it's a tangy initial bite. no lasting flavor. yeast flavor can be a bite as well. aroma is clean and nice. next time take a little sip of star san!

    Extremely low brewhouse efficiency - BE Mash & Boil

    I had the same low efficiency issues. Some of my problem was that I was doing calcs for bh efficiency with BeerSmith and trying to do 2.5 g batches. There’s a lot of loss from trub and fermenter loss that makes it hard to get good BH efficiency. I’ve increased my mash efficiency by a ton by...

    Anvil Controller for 1650w element

    I'm looking for a cheap way to heat sparge water easily and I noticed my new anvil controller is rated for 120v/15A. Any reason I can't pair this with a cheap bucket heater under 1800w to heat spare water? I'd have to put the probe in a thermowell. Thanks!
