Yes kreusen is pretty solid right now.

I have a honey pale ale in fermentation right now. It's my fourth homebrew and first time using US-05. I pitched at 64 degrees and I usually let it ferment in my basement which is on average 60-62 degrees year round. With recent temps being in the single digits outside in st. Louis it lowered...

There's quite a bit of suspended sediments from dry hopping. Would it be advisable to cold crash before bottling? Will that dull the flavor and aroma?

Update: my ipa fermented out fine with a final gravity of 1.016. I was really suprised by this since I was shooting for 1.021. dn - you were correct, I can hardly tell of any off flavors due to the heavy hops. It's in secondary now in the process of dry hopping. I'm planning to bottle in a week...

St. Louis, St. Charles its all the same around here right! I have been reading all sorts of good info on this forum and I figured since I research so much on here I should just join! glad I did!
