    Next steps for NEIPA

    Hi all, I finally bought kegging equipment to get rid of my oxidation issues with hoppy beers (thank you for the comments earlier this year). Now the problem is that I have managed to brew one APA I was very happy with. All the others have been off; too bitter, off flavors, dark color, to name...

    American Wheat recipe

    Edited: it seems this is not going to be an APA after all but American Wheat. Hi all, I would love to hear your feedback on my recipe. There are a lot of videos about the topic but it's still quite hard to figure out if I am at right direction. I added wheat malt partly because it's what I...

    Kegging

    Hey all, After trying to figure out reasons for off-flavours in my homebrew (my homebrew really tastes and smells like homebrew which is a shame given that I am unable to find any major process flaws except for fermentation ambient temp), I've decided to buy a mini fridge with an Inkbird to...

My second one was a NEIPA (I know), which was OK after 4 days of bottling but trash after a week. I am going to bottle a...

    Krausen climbing up the air lock

    Hi, I brewed a stout yesterday and I’m using small fermenter the first time. I thought I left enough headspsce but clearly didn’t. I went to check on it and Krausen has climbed up the air lock. Is this a problem, and can I do anything?

    Odd looking wort

    I made a recipe for NEIPA that was supposed to be 5 quarts but I ended up with under 4 due to having to reduce strike water when putting malts in the kettle. Process biab, is it normal that the wort looks this muddy after boiling? I did take foam away on hot break. Apparently it’s going to be an...

    I just bottled my first batch

    Absolutely awful and horrible experience! I may have ruined a good brew. There was sediment on top of the wort. I had to bump siphon over and over again to keep the flow running and sediment was soon everywhere. Bottling wand got stuck twice of sediment during the process of transfering from...
