With what little info I have... I say oxidation may have muted the hop flavors and increased sweetness... exaggerating the malty bread flavor... add the yeasty flavor of a young beer... and you have a glass of bread... This is just a theory/assumption... but could be possible. More dry...

20191029_182127 by Day-Day posted Oct 30, 2019 at 8:04 PM NEIPA I recently brewed. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/haze-craze-all-grain-kit.671628/

Nevermind...just saw must pick up.

I've been brewing kits lately... given that I'm an extremely busy husband, father of two, and 2nd year PhD student... it's nice to just have a kit delivered to my door. No weighing and crushing grain, no driving to the store, no recipe development,etc. The only real work besides the actual...

Were these 5 gallon batches... 2.5-3 oz priming sugar sounds low for 5 gallons... with that little priming sugar it may take a long time to reach desired carbonation... if it ever does... when I used to bottle I always used an online calculator to calculate priming sugar amount... it was usually...

Brewed an Imperial stout on Saturday... pitched around 3:30 pm yesterday... and just switched to a blow off tube because the krausen was crawling through the airlock (6.5 gallon carboy) and making a mess all over the towel covering the carboy.. my entire basement smells like dark chocolate...

I know this isn't helpful for your current situation, but moving forward if you overbuild your starters you can harvest a portion of it before you pitch... If you need a 1.5L starter, build a 2L starter, save 500 ml then pitch. If you do this every time you brew and or purchase a new yeast...

Dude you completely missed the entire point of my argument My point was not that home brewers can't isolate single celled organisms or even single cells. My point was that the technique that home brewers are using is actually isolating colonies and not reducing the colony to an actual single...

Here's the issue with your logic, when you streak a sample you do not end up with a single cell. Do you have any idea how small a single yeast cell is, you would not be able isolate it simply by streaking a sample onto an agar or other media based plate. I'm not sure where you got the info...

Taken From the Last Link "In order to ensure that you are only using yeast colonies that have grown from a single yeast cell only consider single round colonies of yeast. Yeast colonies are off-white with dull looking surface. Some of your streaks on the plate should have produced such...

Sorry if I twisted your words, but I still disagree that people are isolating single cells in their homes. They may be isolating pure cultures (monoculture) similar to how hobby mycologist isolate and culture mycelium. Freezing yeast, streaking it on a plate, growing it out and isolating is not...

I just buy distilled water, I just don't trust the consistency of tap water in general... even if the tap water is good... it might be inconsistent and throw off your target water profile/ph, even if you have a quality water report.. the water could be different a few months down the road. You...

I'd bathe in that... dry hop it !!!

A single cell culture is a culture (or group) of intact single celled organisms (yeast in this case), not an actual single cell. What he's saying is that with single cell cultures (yeast slurries, starters, etc), if the viability is low, you need to step them up... often with only a few...

I toss the dry hops straight into my glass carboys... cold crash... then transfer to keg. I may get an occasional hop particle in my beer, depending on how careful I transfer the beer... and how long I wait to drink it after kegging. I don't want a bunch of yeast and hop particles in my beer...

Brewing a Neipa this weekend... maybe I'll post a brew log... if that's a thing in these parts...

Nice looking beer mate... wish I could sample that... let us know how the hop flavor develops and or oxidizes... looks really good to me though...

Yeah, I'll probably just try and find something local... or morebeer has 10 gallon SS Brewtech kettles on sale for $150... thanks anyways brother...

I don't know... I've left my carboys in my swamp cooler that sits right next to a window in my basement uncovered ( no towel or anything) and they get exposed to sunlight during the day... never had an issue... I now always cover them with a towel, but I've done many batches that were exposed to...

Yeah, that is a more than fair price... can you find out how much shipping would be to 15701
