    I want a More malty taste in my brew

    if you got a decent size pot do a partial mash with 3kg of grain its a great way to start getting in AG .after 2 or 3 of those its pretty easy to make the jump

    Modus Sonic Prayer clone ?

    American IPA

    Remember it being a decent beer. But not really what I’d call an ipa. Was a year ago though.

    American IPA

    As I only topped to 18 l not 20 pretty much the same as mine. Not exactly a leg breaker.

    Wand kept blocking.

    So drank half the batch and had to chuck the rest, Gushing was getting worse. Was worried getting a bomb and hurting someone. TLDR taking off the end of the wand was a bad idea. Should’ve put it back in the brew fridge and bought a siphon the next day. All set up to siphon and bulk prime...

    Wand kept blocking.

    Fermented a week then added hops for 3 days then 7 day cold crash. My fridge is pretty tired so it takes 4 or 5 days to get beer down to 2. So it’s only a day or so at 2.

    Wand kept blocking.

    Yeah. They gushing but can get 90% of the beer if I open super slow and vent off some gas. Shame too cause the beer is great. Gonna have to remind brew Just bought a siphon and bottling bucket for next big dry hopped beer.

    Wand kept blocking.

    I’ve always bottled from primary and never had issues like this. Granted this was 20g extra dry hop than I have done before and the giga yeast Vermont ipa pack I used def had more yeast cake than other yeast I’ve used. With the cold crash the cake was up to the tap level. Have thought about...

    Wand kept blocking.

    Yeah. Next time I do a big dry hop I will use a bag for sure. Just wondering if there was an option yesterday I didn’t think of.

    Wand kept blocking.

    So last night bottling an ipa I had issue I haven’t had before. Dry hopped ipa with 120g pellets. Cold crashes all that. The damn bottling wand kept getting blocked. I have had it happen once or twice when bottling a hoppy beer before but I seriously cleared it 25 times. Took me an hour to fill...
