The strainer in my funnel picked up these gelatin looking chunks when I was pouring the wort into my carboy, is this what Irish moss is supposed to do or am I on drugs?

Yep connect your gas line to the out post and bring it to 30 psi then you pull the pressure release a few times and it works opposite of what you would think. It actually pushes the gas out of the beer somehow, though do be careful to not let it flow back into your gas line or pull the valve too...

Figured I'd update, the beer was actually overcarbed. It poured wild and the escaping carbonation made it seem flat. I ended up doing the dip tube trick and it fixed it the same night :mug:

If I had enough time I would definitely try the natural carbonation route but this is for a family event this weekend... I'll try shaking the life out of it and see what happens

That thing looks like something of my nightmares, does it actually work? In my recipe I used a pound of oats and a pound of wheat which made up 14.8% of the total grist combined. With the boil over I had to cut the boil very short as I was close to my post-boil volume so maybe... There...

I ended up gelatin fining it last night so a lot of whatever was making it look like that dropped out. It looks and has the mouthfeel like a regular hazy ipa now, still no carbonation though The best comparison of viscosity would be milk, it stuck to the side of the glass like milk and was just...

Yep, tested with iodine. OG wasn't spot on but it was close. Though i wasn't paying attention during the beginning of the boil and had a boil over

Just in case someone asks I do not have any leaks

I've got an NEIPA that is exceptionally thick, it has the consistency of a milkshake, and will not carbonate. I've had it on 30 psi for around 5 days now and carbonation is non-existent, though I shook it for about 10 minutes once and I got a very small amount of carbonation. I'm thinking about...

I'm too far away to buy this but I couldn't help but notice the beautiful square in the background, is that a 74 K5?

Ok, thank you guys Really the appreciate the help :mug:

Hmm, looks I might need to go shopping... And it'll still ferment even though it flocculated? I would love to bring it up to 80 degrees but I have a wit with wlp400 next to it currently chewing away at the same temp

I'm using a hydrometer and I'm using one of those 12" analog thermometers, I forget what brand but I think it's pretty accurate. I should get a nice quality instant read. I'm having it ferment at 72 degrees I'll wait it out a few more days and see what happens. Last time I used it, granted it...

This probably my 15th batch of beer and have yet to ever have a problem fermentation wise but now I do, so I'm gonna need some advice sorry..... It's an NEIPA OG was 1.062 5 gallons Currently been sitting at 1.032 for 2 days Mistakenly mashed high around 158°f Yeast: Imperial A-20...

Man this threads been getting whole lot of attention! I had ended up getting the igrill and it's been pretty good but as ehk089 said, the range is really short Next thing will be to get a new smoker eventually

Ok good luck!

Ahhhh ok Mashed in with 10 quarts with a 19.84 quart sparge Post boil should be 5 gallons Do you have beersmith?

Haha awesome! I can't remember exactly what I had but are trying to do an extract batch? Not sure if I understand your question on the volumes 100% About the pH, if I remember correctly it may have been around 3.8 I could be wrong

You could start a cactus thread and name it Mr. Magoriums Succulent Emporium

Thank you for the offer! But I will pass haha
