If my OG is high I add water to dilute to get correct OG. Always filtered water and have never had any issues

Yep spot on , you could adjust to your own taste

I’ve had the Balter XPA in Tassie before but it seems to taste so much nicer here on the Gold Coast while on holidays

Doing a bit of research while on holidays having a 4 pines kolsch that has wakatu , hallertua and motueka nice drop

I don’t really get a lime flavour from Citra personally

Are you freezing your juice and using vodka for the zest ?

Im thinking might drop the sorachi ace and just use the Motueka and use the zest of 3 limes , give me a good base to work off and adjust from there

I have just finished using one but a little different in that I drilled a hole in top of canister and put the dip tube inside and let the hops float around naturally for the dry hop I done this for 4 days and the cold crashed and transferred under pressure to a new keg . I only used 30g for this...

I’m kegging , but didn’t even give the acidity a thought when/if I use zest . May just not add acid to the sparge water if I go down the zest track . Are you going to use zest and juice at the kegging stage or use an extract ?

I did look into Dr rudi aswell but I was going to use what brewman has on hand atm for first trial . How much of the Motueka did you use in your brew ?

Welcome mate it’s a slippery slope . I started about 12 months ago on some mangrove jacks kits , and now I’m all grain . First thing is to get a temp control set up if you haven’t already

Yep sure do , I find it gives a smoother bitterness , well to my taste buds anyway

For me I use a grainfather so I add them while I am sparging
