Is this yeast more sensitive to bad water or chlorine? If I smell it I think it has chlorine smell. Someone once told me they let water stand in buckets for awhile. I have not had this before with kit yeast packs?

I didn’t do 18, but I do put in keg where it finishes off, is that a problem? Sort of like secondary fermentation and probably around 22 , depending on room temp.. I don’t cold crash... System seems to work with kit yeasts.. have had this before... first time I have used us 05 for awhile.. thanks

Hi thanks first time I have used us05 yeast in ages, not had this before? Or with kit yeasts...

Ok thanks will try .. you mean the kit yeast or other.. if so what do you recommend?

The yeast is very dry... which I think alters the flavour.... loss of sweetness... the aroma of the head is like a very very very slight cheese background... that’s what it seems .. but really subtle... probably better than last night.. and there is after taste I can just describe as...

24/20 degrees

It is Morgan’s ?

Thanks... I will try again .. cheers

I tried a mouthful this am. Mmmm not sure if was as bad... don’t it’s weird ... can your taste buds have bad days... :) it also might also its one of the first pulls... but it is definitely dry... and that makes it or the impression of bitterness or takes away sweetness ... don’t like it dry. Is...

It was sachet .. 23 l so I cannot see it being over pitched ... not really soapy .. I’ll taste again tomorrow when taste buds fresh ..

Interesting... could be... yes a really strange flavour... could be plasticy .. could not rarely describe it... thanks

Hi there, I have made a Morgan’s kit pacific ale with us 05 yeast. There is this after taste .. is it decityl (What does that taste / aroma like? )(spell check?) .. it’s not banana... and it’s seems dry.. don’t know what it is yeast or brew ... have not made pacific ale before. Brew pretty...

Poured into keg yesterday, interesting add a very slight mini head on it, I assume because the CO2 was not escaping.. bit different to what I normally see...anyway think it worked all. The taste of the beer was good too, perhaps because slight carbonated.

Pressure fermentation :) :) :)

Hi got a nice seal on this.. pushing up so I assume sealed... full cover on top. Love this, can see what is happening.. I think these are Live Photo’s so maybe issue, but you get the idea. thanks

Hi I just using harvest yeast, and first cling wrap cover ... this is been in for few hours(found this rubber band from Bunnings:) ) perfect... what happens to co2? Just it just push past band...looks like a bit of action... ?

My first attempt.. done all the yeast washing... I had 6 jars and a 500 ml bottle. Let everything settle for an hour or 2. Tipped out top fluid, tipped 3 jars into each other, topped up 2 farms with 500 ml. 6th jar had a bit over, kept for a test. This morning I took the half jar chuck some...

Yep probably till next brew or after... kind of makes sense, a fair percentage of it is yeast ....

Thanks MHB those bottles look the same that were 39.00. @Vini2ton I have a few champagne bottles with good lids. I’m think that if chuck in 2 Lt of water after batch finished.. should give me about 4 bottles. I’m sure 1 bottle will give enough for a good starter.... after tipping off all the...
