Looks like a great recipe.

Looks like a great recipe. Looking to do something similar. Maybe add in some El Dorado as well.

Thanks for the info guys.

How has that filtering system been working out for you? My next brew I am going to do the same. Buy a paint strainer bag or maybe a hop bag and use a zip tie to secure it. Have any suggestions?

Extract version. We fell short at 1.051 OG again. Should be interesting to see what it finishes at. Could end up being a 4.5% Citra hop bomb.

I'm thinking next time I got to bottle I will put a hop bag at the end of the hose secured by a stainless steel clamp to catch any particles in suspension

I like that idea too.

It sits in a basement closet at 65 degrees until the day before I transfer. I move it a day before to let everything settle from being moved.

I suppose that is possible but I would need to add my priming sugar to the fermenter and stir. Yeast is disturbed. The bottling bucket makes it easy with the spigot. And transfering from secondary to bottling bucket gives you another chance to remove the beer from the trub.

You think it is worth using gelatin before moving the fermenter? Trying to get everything to settle before I transfer. Previously I have been transfering only an hour after moving and have been getting a lot of sediment, assumed because the wort didn't have time to settle.

Thanks for the input

My brewing buddy found a HT clone kit on Austin Homebrew and we have that ordered. Also bought some nottingham yeast. Excited to give it a shot but not expecting it to be Heady Topper.

I plan to use that one my brew that is fermenting now. I will move the fermenter to a room temperature room and add gelatin at least a day (maybe two) before transfering to bottling bucket.

What about moving your fermentor, carboy, or bottling bucket? Do you let it sit before doing work (for how long)? I have my primary in the basement, which I carry upstairs to transfer to secondary (carboy). Put the secondary back in the basement for two weeks. Move the secondary (carboy)...

What does your setup look like if you never have to move your fermenter?

Now I just feel silly. But I don't see a vendor section. :smack:

Can someone provide a link? I see several filters on the site. Nothing jumps out at me as being a "chad" filter.

I have been using Wirfloc tables during the boil and then Clarity Ferm before yeast is pitched. Do you know of any products I can use after fermentation is complete? Been looking into cold crashing too. I've never done that before but I have a freezer that I could use for that purpose.

Looking for opinions. I'm trying to find out the best way to filter our beers mostly for appearance. We brew mostly hoppy pale ales or IPAs and drop pellets directly into the fermenter (no hop bags or hop balls). Do you think it is ok to filter beer going from secondary to my bottling...

First off, sorry if this has been discussed before. I have found two extract kits (in stock) and wanted to know if anyone has brewed these before and/or your opinions. Keystone Homebrew. This is the more expensive kit. It has ingredients and process on the site. Comes out to 11 oz of hops...
