the beer is pretty clear - didnt notice much hop particulate floating around but yeah i'm going to give it another week and hope the taste improves. if not i guess i'll dump it.

What is hop tea?

Thanks for the input. Appreciated! It really has a great smell but the flavor just isn't there. No hop fruitiness at all. It's very odd. The aftertaste is bitter. Just to add more info I DH day 3, DDH day 6, cold crash day 10, Keg day 12, tasted day 14 after 2 days at 15psi

Yeah I'm not really sure why I'm getting such a bitter and bad aftertaste. Pretty bummed. Pic of a fresh pour attached. Pressure transfer from fermenter into keg. Has been carbonating for 48 hours at 12psi

What am I doing wrong? Attached is my recipe. The beer smells and looks fantastic but the flavor just is not there. It's almost bitter. Brewed on the anvil foundry and kegged three days ago.

anyone else able to offer some opinions before i order my ingredients?

makes sense on the sugar - when would you recommend adding that? I'd like to keep it between 6.5% - 7% so thats a great tip i appreciate it. water calc - i dont know how i missed the acid additions at the bottom - thank you! i added 5ml to bring the PH down to 5.32 do you think there is too...

at your recommendation i dropped the base malt to 10 lb 8 oz. when you say sugar - do you mean just regular old sugar that i'd throw in my coffee? doing this brought my FG down to 1.019 for the PH i have a bottle of LD Carlson Lactic Acid (88%) - how much would you recommend i put in? I did...

thank you all for the feedback in putting this recipe together. i got the beer in the keg earlier this week (tuesday) and i tried my first glass on saturday and it came out pretty great. very happy with the taste, color and mouth feel.

i have been getting a lot of milkshake NEIPA's from a local spot so that is what i am trying to emulate (Peaches & Cream Milkshake | Source Brewing)

Brewfather recipe summary attached - what does everyone think? The final gravity falls outside of the recommended level according to brewfather - they say max should be 1.015 and this is coming in at 1.022.

What should I be shooting for - there doesn't appear to be too much info out there? Attached is my current water profile. I have gypsum, epsom salt, and calcium chloride but i can get other stuff as well if need be. Thanks for the help!

Hi all - this is my first time brewing and adjusting my water chemistry and I'm definitely in need of a little guidance. I will be brewing up an NEIPA. I have attached a copy of my water report, and the additions that BrewFather is suggesting I make. In another thread it was recommended to me...

i really appreciate all your help! i believe i made most of the suggested adjustments in this thread and have come up with this: https://share.brewfather.app/iOUQAdisJC7g8o I just want to make a decent, drinkable, properly colored hazy neipa....hopefully this gets me most of those things. As...

Just got my water adjustments into brewfather. Mind taking a look?

my goal for this is more of the NEIPA style which i tend to find have lower IBU and little to no bitterness so thats why i tried to keep that value so low. thank you for the kind words. i am still starting out (10th overall brew - 1st personal receipe) so i am following everything i have...

Will do! Thank you kindly for the advice!!

thank you for the feedback! i am hoping to fight off the stuck mash with the rice hulls - do you think i need more than 1 pound?

what's your recommended whirlpool temp / time/ amount? will definitely switch up the dry hop times. will also be doing closed transfer to keg to condition.

Be gentle... This is my first attempt. I am trying to emulate a local microbrewery who does a fantastic single hop cashmere neipa. It is super creamy and smooth with almost no bitterness. Destroy me if you must. I appreciate the constructive feedback.
