Wow i am very surprised about this findings on CO2 not being the ideal way to carbonate this style to avoid oxidation and retain aroma for the longest time. Is it possible at all to ferment in the keg with a spunding valve and NOT transfer to a serving keg??? I am thinking the first pints would...

Nice article, the diastatic power in big dry hops is something that got me worried, i always wondered if this contributes negatively to my NEIPAs taste, it does smell awesome but i think there is room for improvement in the taste. I dryhop at 20c temperature, i will try to keep the beer in the...

Cool, i only used Apollo in a Heady Topper clone attempt. What can i expect from this hop? I don't really know it but i do have it in my freezer

Yep i am thinking about adding like 30ibu from columbus in the boil, then whirlpool with Columbus, Simcoe, Nelson, Mosaic for another 15 ibu and aroma, and then Dry Hop with Simcoe, Nelson, Mosaic. I am thinking Mosaic will bring enough tropical charactor to balance out the rest?

Ok so i decided to brew a NEIPA this weekend, this will be like the 10th time i brew this style and i always did: Warrior - Bittering Citra / Mosaic / Galaxy - Whirlpool and Dry Hop This time around i want to try something completely different, more dunk and and less citrusy but still juicy as...

Cool thanks, but bigger whirlpool addition than 20 grams for 1 gallon? I don't think i have ever tried that, wouldn't that be too much?

Hey guys, i want to brew an IPA using Nelson for the first time this weekend, so i have just created a simple recipe and i could use some feedback. I have attached a screenshot from Beersmith. My goal is to make an IPA which is not completely simple thus Munich and a little Centennial, but that...

Well the initial goal is to make it exactly like Sculpin but i know my limitations and i will probably never get to that point, and because if that i want to make a beer that has Sculpin notes and make it as best as i can. Since i am making some really really good NEIPAs i thought i can use some...

Hey guys, i have been working on a Sculpin clone and i would like your opinion on something NEIPA related. What do you think would happen if i move the Sculpin dry hop addition to day 2? Would it create a Hazy NEIPA Sculpin? LOL I may try that because like Braufessor said, dryhopping early in...

@Yooper , looks like we don't have a search feature in the threads anymore so i was not able to search before asking, but have you ever attempted a variation using lactose? I am curious on how would that turn out...

Do you guys think this beer will benefit from conditioning in the keg? I ask because it is already good in day 2! I fear it will be over before it changes due to conditioning...

Perfect, thanks!

@Yooper, i just added this recipe to Brun Water so i can brew it this weekend, the thing is i use 100% distilled water and add salts, for me to reach those levels of Bicarbonate i have to add a bunch of baking soda which is something i never done before. How important is the Bicarbonate? Should...

Just thought i report back about this recipe and bump it up so others get to see it and try it. Kegged one week ago and it is AWESOME! Thanks for the recipe OP!

Thanks for the reply. Well sometimes i pitch an entire non hydrated pack of 05 into 2 gallons when i am lazy, sometimes i have a 1 liter started which i divide in 1 vials, and i pitch that 1 vial. I heard it is pretty hard to overptitch so i tend to use more yeast than i would need in theory...

Hi guys, So i have been experimenting with different fermentation temperatures and i have a question I use a swamp cooler and i ferment my ales around 15c, but that is the temperature i measure in the cooler's water, not the actual beer. I brew 2 gallon batches so my fermenter is 100%...

Here is a Beersmith recipe scaled from the original recipe found on page 54 in case anyone is interested. It is a 1 gallon recipe but Beersmith can scale it up for you no problem. :mug:

This thread has all the info you need: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=24678 I do this for all my batches now, no loss of carbonation if you follow the guidelines. :mug:

I also have the Milwaukee MW102, and i had $20 meters before, they ARE indeed useless. My advice is, just bite the bullet and get a good one, buying a $20 meter will do no good.

What extra work do you mean? I use it just like any other yeast...
