Thanks for the reply! I have 5' lines, they're kinda coiled in the bottom. I haven't had any foam issues at 10-12 psi but I'll look into your suggestions. As for my probe, it's inside my neoprene keg sleeve against the keg. I would pour a pint and check the temp and the inkbird was within .3...

Thank you! Here's a better look! It's a great conversation piece.

Hey everyone! I finished my keezer yesterday and wanted to post it and see if maybe i missed something important. I do plan on getting some foam and insulating the collar from the inside but it will be hard to do at this step; in the future I'll redo the collar and sandwich foam board. I have a...

Yeah, good learning opportunity for me. I figured it can't hurt to try. Worse thing I do is dump a semi old kit from NB.

Yeah, mash Temps is what I'm contributing this failure to. I need to get this beer out of the chamber so I can put another one in.

Nah, when I pulled the kid open to pitch new yeast it was all fallen back down.

48 hours since the last update. Talked to my LHBS and the head brewer suggested to pitch energizer, a new pack of yeast, stir, and bump the temp up 2 degrees. I did that yesterday and dropped 2 points.. been stuck at 1.020 for 34 hours. Now I'm almost positive that since I stirred and pitched I...

Yeah I'm not sparging and I'm doing BIAB in a keggle. I use the thermometer installed on the keggle which I checked last brew and it was reading correctly. My grain bill was 10 lbs of grain, 8 oz rice hulls in 7 gallons of mash water. Grain temp was about 68°. I thought it was weird as well...

Update: after doing some reading and reflection on the brew day process, I may have found the issue if the gravity doesn't end up moving. This is only my 2nd BIAB attempt and so I'm still learning a lot. I was supposed to mash at 152° for 60 minutes. If my memory serves correctly, my strike...

Thanks everyone. I'll wait it out and see what happens.. worst thing is I have a 2.5% kolsch lol. My impatience is very much attached to just building a keezer and I want to try it out. I'll post back the final results.

Just a bucket got some foam. I've never had this happen before. Now I'm worried that since I switched my blowoff to the airlock and it hasn't changed that the O2 i let in isn't getting purged. Do I try to agitate it? Maybe I didn't oxygenate the wort enough...

Just did. Reads the same as the tilt.

My Temps swing between 67 and 68. Still no movement this morning but I'll wait. If by tomorrow it hasn't began dropping again I'll pitch another pack. I'm also going off a tilt and not pulling samples as I care less about exact gravity atm vs changes but maybe something happened to the tilt...

Hey guys. I recently brewed a kolsch and since it's been a few months since I last brewed some things slipped my mind (like my yeast). I pitched a pack of k-97 that's been sitting in a container in my garage for about 10 months (oops, thought i put that in the fridge). It was part of a NB...
