G'day All, Got a small concern. I think my beer (currently fermenting) is a bit too cold. Im using a US05. and its sitting between 12-16 Celcius. I don't have a heaters belt or anything, but just moved it inside to where the heated rooms are to bump up the temp. I also recently did a KIT of St...

Take out crystal add another 100g of munich or just dog it all together?

Thanks for your help, they have pretty much answered my questions, only other question really is is there any huge negative to cold chilling in primary? or should i really rack to secondary? if i plan to batch prime it would seem a waste of time and from what felten said it seems pointless =]...

Hello! So i have two brews under my belt and have tried one of them. FANTASTIC. THANKS DR SMURTO for probably the best golden ale ive ever had. Also have a Ruby Red Ale (kit) bubbling away. Now a few questions, i think i have the "basics" of BIAB down. and now i want to try and get the beer...

So ill post this for anyone intrested, i bottled the golden ale, its been carbing for about 8 days and i tried one. OMG good beer. biggest downfall really is i think it needs some more maturity it still has a very new yeasty taste kind of like when you taste undercooked bread and can almost...

I'd prob say us-05? Thanks for recipie man. I'll loom at a similar rendition when I get home and post it up

was wondering if anyone had a extract recipe of a Kosciusko pale ale, had this the other day it was tops wanted to make my own!

<p> the beer was a partial extract, the FG is about .01 off what it should be (roughly) so i was thinking leave for a few days let yeast clear up and then bottle it up probably monday or tuesday. which is 12 days since i pitched the yeast.</p>

Whole grain bill had 46grams all up=] cool cool.

added 15G for dry hopping to 23L, so i might not be as happy. lol

hey guys, so basically made a brew up last thursday and chucked the hops in on monday. From most stuff i have read i should leave it in primary for 14 days, but considering i have dry hopped. should the hops stay in for 10 days? or will that make a overpowering hoppyness? Thanks in advance...

Bit more reading maybe not bottle Friday. How long should primary roughly be?

15G dry hop added took a reading while at it at 1.020 SG so still a bit but probably ready to bottle Friday I would say
