    Lalbrew New England Yeast

    Id be definately trying this dry yeast. Currently using 1318 liquid for NEIPAs and they are $13 a beer and i cant reuse the yeast due to the dryhopping during fermemtation.

    ^ aiming for lower attenuation and also some of the esters its produces. Also, the previous beer was 002 so trying to replicate as much as i can.

    Dry hopping: Keg vs fermenter

    Last week I split a batch of Saison into 2 x 9.5lts kegs, one i used the 300um hop tube with 56g of Mandarina Bavaria hops which makes it quite heavy = 5.9g/L Well this is the 3rd time using that hop tube in teh past 3 years and.... the hops havent exactly kicked out that citrus fruit aroma, i...

    KK - 'Fermentasaurus' conical PET fermenter

    ^ ^ I've done about 12 or more brews under pressure now and the fermentation time is no different to before. its all yeast pitch rates and viability of that yeast pitched and the temperature you ferment at.

    ^ ^ if your worried about the sides sucking in during the cold crash, prior to that fill it with C02 from the bottle and then cold crash. be mindful that that c02 is being absorbed and will start to carbonate your beer.

    Fermenting Under Pressure

    Hey wide eyed, i read somewhere that if you carbonate with co2 stores from fermentation it can cause off flavours. Not sure where i read it i will try get the link. I questioned it becuase the beer can be carbonated naturally by capping the vessel but apparently when its stored something...

    Nice Cliffo. What does the flaked corn do? Dry it out or add some kind of malt aroma?

    Depending on yeast but likely with 7Lts of headspace you wont have any issue.

    If you still have krausen then fermemtation is still going. When the krausen drops and you want to check if FG is near or done, pull that prv and drop the pressure out to get a heap of yeast into supsension and see what pressure pushes back into the fv.

    KK - 'Fermentasaurus' conical PET fermenter

    mine always looks like there is still fermentation but usually after 4-5days and that kind of temp raise she should be done. Just pull the PRV red valve and release the C02 right down to 1psi and let it go, Watch as all the pressurized yeast in the bottom of the collection bottle will...

    body assistance

    Im an AG brewer but looking at that, Id take the Dextrose out and target a higher FG. That higher FG = more un fermentable are left in the beer, which is considered sweeter however that "body" of the beer is where those unfermentable are placed

    Definately use it all in the boil and then create the 4 different dry hopped combos, making one of them all moutere. You can decide then if you like it, i wasnt a fan but they were 2015 crop
