    NEIPA continues to grass

    I meant hops from Yakima valley hops (supplier). My apologies, been caught up with busy life lately and appreciate the help. Here is a very close approximation to the brews I speak of as I have been playing with alterations to try to fix: 8lbs pilsner 5 lbs malted oat 5 lbs flaked oat 4 oz...

    What are you drinking now?

    King Julius, one of best IPAs I’ve ever had, up with Very Hazy, Very gggreen, and I’m sensing a trend.

    NEIPA continues to grass

    My NEIPAs just continue to be slightly off over and over no matter my hop adjustments. The latest iteration had a whirlpool at 165, and dry hops for 6 days, still grassy. I use pellet hops from yakima. What other reasons could I be missing?

    Monster Mill rotar issue

    so the free rotar on my monster mill mm3 will not consistently spin and is stuck 99% of the time, thus I have been unable to mill my grain. I saw many places where people said, 1) clean, 2) lubricant, and 3) disassemble and reassemble. I have done all of these and the problem persists. Any ideas?

    Concerned-infected?

    It is all grain, OG was 1.068, have not used either of those. This yeast strain was 1318. Took OG after first placing in fermenter. Have not calibrated the tilt in a long while but never seemed to have issue.

    Concerned-infected?

    the Gravity of this is real low. And it seems to have some issues? FG was supposed to be 1.015 appears to be 1.002 if tilt right. Picture below. 7 days in.

    Blichman beer gun

    I had minor foaming, nothing too bad., I purged keg and lowered pressure. The beer poured very well carved but no hiss. Was hoping to emulate what the breweries do to avoid trub and have more consistency in carbonation. I did pop this bottle within 50 minutes of filling.

    Blichman beer gun

    Bottles using kegs as brite tank. All went great, good carb in first opened bottle. But it didn’t make a single noise when the opened like a bottle normally does. Should I have concern on the rest of my bottles?

    Bottom of bottle sludge

    Bottled after 12 days. Have a brew bucket and with these, as long as stable gravity, have not had true issues in kegging at same date. Continually thinking about how I may have gone out of normal process and messed it up.

    Bottom of bottle sludge

    Were they still good at all? I’ve made a ton of kegged IPAs just never a bottled one.

    Bottom of bottle sludge

    It is a hazy and the yeast strain is 1318. Bottles were not refrigerated as they are 1 week into conditioning.

    Bottom of bottle sludge

    never seen this at the bottom of one of my bottles but it is consistent across all on this batch. Doesn’t even try to move when turn sideways. Thoughts? It is a NEIPA. My 7th ever bottled batch.

    Hornindal Kveik is blowing my mind

    Talking about kviek strains got me excited and I decided to brew a beer two days ago to a OG of 1.099 and it took off nicely for me. However today I noticed it has slowed considerably at 1.056 when Brewer’s Friend shows me a FG of 1.031(it has some lactose in it). I looked and the wort temp is...

    Stuck keg

    I brewed an IPA and it appears to have the keg stuck. I have cleaned the dip tube twice but still only works if I have PSI absolutely cranked. Should I siphon to another keg or what should I do?

    Stuck fermentation

    Giving it a good shake for it going some but it died out again at 1.029. So from 1.075-1.029. Do I settle at that when target was 1.021 or do I pitch the Safale-05?

    Stuck fermentation

    I have a beer fermenting with 1318. It started at 1.075 and is supposed to finish near 1.021. However it has stuck at 1.036, can I repitch another package of 1318 or just let it go?

    Imperial Stout Bottling

    Please tell me if I am off. I have an imperial stout that fermented out in a week, got cocoa nibs for 4 days and will have had vanilla beans for 21 when I am ready for next step. My plan is to cold crash, then keg. Force carb at room temp for a week. Then use a bottle gun, and in a couple...

    FG. Repitch or call it good?

    It got away from me at start and went to 82 degrees for 12 hours or so over night. Then got it back down to 69 where it stayed for 36 hours before its stall. Still at 1.041.
