I bottled a sour 10 days aho It has a odd smell It almost smells like oxidation But I used a siphon to transfer and a bottling wand to fill All my bottled beers get this smell to thrm and Idk why

So I didn't research enough and have had my kolsch upstairs where the house is heated to room temp in the low 70s I've read its suppose to ferment at the low 60s Its been maybe 3 days or so and its fermenting pretty heavy Also I tried making thisa cucumber and lemon water kolsch So for my...

Ive used the lacto from omega labs and it was amazing but my local HBS only has the WLP672 Lactobacillus Brevis Can I follow the same rule of thumb? Let it sit for 2 days at room temp? Will it have a different taste since its not 2 yeast strains blended like the omega labs version?

Oh and i also pulled a beer or 2 off Friday I think so its really only been a day or 2 Maybe I'm usung the wrong glass

Forgot to mention also have been dispensing this beer outta a picnic tap

So I kegged a beer and had a buddy iver on Thursday it was carbed up great tasted great.. So today ( sunday ) I pull off a beer and it seems like it has no head and lower carb and flavor loss Now I dont think there are any leaks as i still have c02 in my tank and after 3-4 days of a slow leak...

It was really good the 1st glass a nunch of vanilla but great!

So do you still get the flavor throughout the whole keg?

So my local home brew store was telling me about how instead of vanilla beans they use this nrw vanilla paste. And its suppose to be equal to 3 beans in 1 ozs. They are also a brewey and use it in all there beer so i tried it, it was also super cheap $4 for 1 oz So i put my beer in the keg...

Hydrometer but 3 days later its still at 1.020 so I guess it's done

So long story short my local home brew store that is also a brewey helped me with a recipe and sadly did not know what they were doing they gave me 3 lbs of flaked wheat for a hazy ipa but only gave me 10oz or so od 2 row which was not enough for the conversion so my abv came out to 5% instead...

So im making a carrot cake sour ( sounds gross but actually just pulled a sample and its pretty good) so the recipe I added was 5.5 lbs of light Pilsen LME then used lactobusillius by omega labs to kettle sour for 2 days put back on boiled for one hour and added 1 oz willamette at 20...

yea its set up! works fine! Im gonna try to put another keg in soon 99% sure it should fit, its a pretty big fridge and looking at there double tap model the the fridge are both the same cu ft, I think im gonna be lazy for awhile and connect a co2 splitter and just use a picnic tap for one of...

So I'm going on a limb here and am going to make a carrot cake sour A local brewery ( burley oak) did it and it was fantastic So Anyone have any recommendations on whento add it and how much? I was thinking about a half gallon a few days after fermentation

The fermentor should fit fin. It looks big enough to hold 2 kegs but I haven't tried it

Its a 80ibu session ipa. Its not bad but i feel like i can taste the oxidation on the back end

So I tested my beer today it hit fg and i sampled it and it was soo good hands down the best beer ive ever made it was so clean had no funky or homebrewy after taste. So I go to put it into my keg and 25% transfers with my auto siphon then it starts getting stuck I ended up pumping it 10x or...

So I'm doing my 1st sour so is this correct Just heat my LME enough to dissolve it take it off pitch my bugs at 95°F in the kettle add the lid and some plastic wrap around the kettle an let sour for 2 days Thing bring to a boil add my hops and then pitch my regular yeast in fermenter. Also I...

Yea I am just impatient have no home brew atm. I took a gravity reading and it's at 1.012 now So 5% The yeast i used does have a higher attenuation at 82-90 so I would think it be stronger

I brewed a beer on December 30th and it had a final gravity of 1.050 Its been fermenting with omega labs tropical ipa yeast and it's been fermenting under pressure but no more c02 is being produced and everything has dropped down Should it be done?
