Okay, so 36-47mg/l is the bicarbonate value and bicarbonate hardness is 1,8-2,2°dH. There were two options where my water came so the range is thus the range in mg/l can be 5mgs less or 0,3°dH less from the max. I need to find this one chemist to get a tiny bit more accurate. "Carbonate is...

I know, I just listed everything just in case it can be used as a support data of another data or for anything. I'm going to dig around the internet a little bit and probably get back to this thread. Youtubers at Clawhammer Supply (they didn't pay me to promote lol, I just follow the guys) used...

So you're talking about UK gallons and not US, ok. I measured my orange peel citrus sinensis measurements and a largest pieces are something like 5 x 7 mm. I know the bars got pretty high there. A bit of a mistake there. I try to find info on the bicarbonates. I only found these: 7.9-8.1pH (I...

The taste was tarty immediately after 10 days of co2 carbonation @6c. Also when I tried to bottle w iTap the foaming was crazy. Maybe the co2 level of 2-2,5 bars for 12h before changing it to 1,2 was too much. After mashing I remember tasting the wort and it was still good. I used tap water. I...

Which are the easiest beers to brew? I keep on failing with my wheat ale. I think the problem might be that I haven't adjusted the pH but it'd be nice to have a easy brew to bring my brewing confidence back up.

Thank you for all the answers. I'd be quite alone with my brews without this community and probably banging my head to the wall. 😅 Ah, it's just going to cause haze. That doesn't bother me. Those trees are not technically mine but still owned by our family. One time I was jokingly talking...

Hey, Does anyone have an idea what could be done to excess apples next summer? I've thought about cyser or apple wheat ale. As far as processing goes, I don't want to peel every apple but slicing them or using a blender on them would be doable. How can I avoid the taste of pectin in my brews?

It wasn't a refill technically. It was more like a switch of brewferm tanks. We talked about the expiration date of the tanks. They said that if it's due date, they will have to inspect it somehow. So they don't like to take old tanks, but they still do. It's just more work for them.

Hey, So I need to get rid of blueberry and mint suryp that I have. I probably have 150g of blueberry and 50g of mint syrup. I thought about pouring at least the first one to my wheat ale in my next batch, which I will start in two weeks or so. I'm able to do 7,3 liters with my current equipment...

How many percentages less does industrial CO2 cost vs food grade? I paid 25€ for my 2kg of CO2.

The brewing store customer servant said that I should be able to see from regulator when the CO2 in the tank is coming to an end. Cos of my budget I hesitate buying another tank just yet.

E: Nevermind, it went away after I momentarily lifter the bars to four and went back to 1,57 (@6c). How long would you guys carbonate in a keg? 10-14d? I just hooked the co2 to my keg. Is that noise acceptable? It is a very tiny noise but my mic still caught it somehow.

I talked about this with a guy in the brewing store. He said that I'd need an adapter with the sodastream bottle thus It'd be better just to get another 2kg brewferm CO2 bottle thus everything is more cost-efficient. Now, sodastream bottle would be handy though with a small partykeg. It's...

I was going to write one more reply but it didn't go through. I decided to travel three hours to get the food grade CO2, lol. It's going to be 8-9 hours from now till I can attach a filled gas bottle. I did read something about possible contamination. I don't know what the contamination could be...

Apparently the CO2 is the same whether it's for industry or food and beverage use. Only the bottles are different. Can someone verify this?

I called a place that can fill up my CO2 bottle, but they say the CO2 is typically for different use than food & beverages. Is that alright?

I managed to transfer my beer from fermzilla to keg but after that I noticed I didn't have any CO2 left in my tank. Now I have keg full of beer but I have to get CO2 from store and I don't know how long it's going to take. Maybe a day or two. Can I leave my keg to a cold room @6c for a day or two?

Sorry, I haven't learned to use all the subcategories from the forum. 😄 But I am a beginner brewer, I haven't brewed one successful batch yet although close.

Psi works well for me, at least I use it. Force carbonate, I mean when they roll a keg on the floor while it's connected to a CO2 gas line. I'll probably take my fermzilla out from 6c to 22c, transfer from fermzilla to a keg, calculate 2,6-4 volumes of CO2 @22c, attach the gas line, set the...
