I did not know there was a dried version available! :ban: That's great; if mine gets contaminated it will be a lot easier to replace. I really like Voss, although it's pretty slow to carbonate; probably because I'm conditioning at 70-something degrees instead of 85 to 100.
I only found out recently as well. We finally hit summer temps here and I just discovered that I'm almost out of beer. Perfect time to try this beast!

There's a whole thread to peruse
 
Doing something a little different this weekend. Going to brew a berliner weisse with oak smoked wheat, and secondary on Andean mora pulp. No kettle souring, just using my sourdough starter as the yeast/lacto fermentation source.

So this is my brew bucket on top of my fermentation freezer... I brewed the base IPA for a Mango addition today and this is my first use of Lallemand Kveik Voss...Pitched at 90 degrees. Brutal afternoon brew day because, well, it was 90 degrees :cool:

Brewing up a Scottish Heavy tomorrow morning. Got the water and grain ready so I can jump right into it when I wake up. Decided to tweak it a little from my last brew and am adding a bit of peated malt to it. Interested to see how it turns out.
 
I’m doing a 6g AG batch of my Kölsch. I’ll be using a Kveik for the first time (Skare strain).
I’m splitting the batch with half fermenting at ambient temps in my garage/brewery and half in my guest bathroom at 74°.

In the middle of a mash right now on a different recipe I wanted to try. It's a Belgian Caramel Wit that is supposed to be very tasty and refreshing. We will see...... Have a great Sunday everyone!

Made a NEIPA and all is going well so far, that white labs london fog is some pretty strong yeast, been bubbling away strong so far. This week im gonna do a chocolate beer this week.
 
Brewed a Czech Dark lager this past weekend. Long brew day. Tried the Earl'sches modified decoction method with the Anvil Foundry. You split the grain 70/30 and the water 50/50. Mash with 70% of grain and 50% of water (149F for 30, 162 for 30) then bring it to a boil for 20. Then you add the rest of the water, which should be cold, and rest of grain. It will drop temps down to 130's or low 140's...then mash again at same steps, then do the regular boil. Don't know if it was the decoction or just the grain bill, but the aroma in the house was amazing. It was an aroma of chocolate muffins baking along with fresh baked bread and a hint of gingerbread once the spiciness of Kazbek hops hit the air. Can't wait for this beer to be ready.
