Does sorachi ace still throw a lot of dill notes? I haven’t used it or had a beer with it in probably 5 years.

Before I transfer, I use a weighted screen, pretty much a false bottle, and I place it in the kettle and push it down to compress the whole cones to the bottom. Has helped greatly with that

Nice! Planning to use my homegrown columbus this weekend. Trying a black ipa this year. Picked up a used Bilchman hop rocket last year & will finally try it out fir the first time.

Love sorachi ace … it’s a staple in my saisons … might have to try it in a WCIPA

I used it in a beer a few weeks ago. I dont pick up any dill notes. Im using a lot more of it in this batch, so we will see.

I just used it in my lagered saison. I’m getting all lemon and no dill. Other hops used were EKG, Saaz and Strisslespalt

Gotta fill a keg, so going with a quick GF IPA with Amarillo, Centennial & Motueka. Also bottling a lavender saison.

Did a Kolsch this morning. First kolsch I've done since 2017. More than about time!

Got to building up the pipeline again on Saturday.

Brewed an (almost) SMaS*H Festbier.

Used 2mL YVH CO2 extract as a 45m bittering addition.

German/Hallertau Tradition: 2oz at 10m and 2oz a F.O.

Using NovaLager under pressure again. Got up to 5psi within 6hrs after pitching- I love this yeast.

 

[Graham H]

Brewed a one gal test batch of Peach Cobbler Ale.

[OakIslandBrewery]

Putting in a grain order to rite brew today for a Kolsch. I saved yeast from my last batch. Friday or Saturday I should be filling the basement brewery with the sweet smell of malt!

 

[Wrendelar]

Brewed up my Vienna lager for an upcoming competition

 

[seatazzz]

Waiting on the strike to heat up for a black lager I'm brewing for our club's Iron Brewer competition. Has to have brown sugar or molasses as an ingredient, I'm going with molasses. And, given the sad news we got yesterday, I'm going to name it Bracc in Black, in memory of a dear friend.

 

[BeerNsteadofH2O]

I'm mashed in with a Cascadian black IPA, that has become my signature brew.

Since I'm somewhat of an idiot, I skipped the Carafa III called for in the recipe I used (replaced it with the molasses), and it's now more of a 'brown' than a 'black'. So maybe now it can be Brown is the New Bracc. Also weighed the molasses instead of using a measuring cup, so it maybe got 4oz instead of the 6oz I was going for (molasses level in the 12oz jar attests to that). Smelled absolutely fabulous on the boil, and is now finishing chilling in the ferment fridge; plate chiller only got it down to 83 this morning. Can't wait for winter brewing to start, chill in less than five minutes down to 60.
