Maybe underpitched lager?

Posted: 12 Apr 2021 08:34 PM PDT

I brewed a version of a Munich Dunkel on Sunday in my new BIAB setup (65L digiboil) and am pressure fermenting in a 50L keg. All went great with the wort going into the fermenter at 17C and me realising I have double the wort so I pitched 2 packets of Lallemand Diamond yeast. Not sure how it's supposed to be, but the pressure was at 12.5psi after 36 hours and I plan on holding it at 14psi. The keg isn't...

Pinch Valves for silicon tube.

I tempted to do another brewery build but to keep everything sanitary I'd prefer to pipe up with silicon tube and nice clean pinch valves rather than ball valves on 10-15mm id silicon tube. The valves would be controlled via Craft Beer Pi.

So i reconditioned yeast from some coopers stubbies. I have read the forums but couldn't find an definitive answer if the coopers strain is the WLP009 Melbourne ale. I'm also under the impression that they use a different yeast for bottling from fermentation? Is this true, I'm getting an awful lot of similar traits from the recondition to the real stuff.

Is bottling yeast same as fermented

Wyeast best by date

bought a wyeast 1469 but instead of MFG date it now has a best by date. as i want to overbuild this yeast to keep some for next brew anyone know how to do this. The yeast build software i use has the option for mfg date to workout viability so how do i enter this using best by date?the date in question is 09/21 Wyeast say use within 6months but cannot except this as mfg date as this would mean yeast not being made yet!

Experiences with Wyeast 3068

Posted: 12 Apr 2021 07:08 PM PDT

I'm keen to hear if anyone has some experiences to share with Wyeast 3068 in a Hefeweizen.

A couple of weeks ago I brewed a Hefeweizen and pitched Wyeast 3068 from a smack pack. This is the first time I've ever used a liquid yeast.

Fermentation was for 12 days. Yeast pitched at 19c and fermentation around 22-23c. I was aiming to emphasise banana esters. The whole pack of yeast was pitched into 25 litres. Started at 1046 and finished at 1009 SG.

I kegged on Thursday, into a 19L Corney...

Step mashing

Posted: 12 Apr 2021 06:39 PM PDT

I have a big orange drinks cooler mash tun. I've used it very successfully for lots of AG mashes, but step mashing is hard as it involves hot water additions to get up to various temperatures.
So I wonder... Is it possible to start hotter and step down to different temperatures using cold water during the mash? Or does that somehow scupper extraction?
Thanks in advance

Retailers "own brand" kits

Posted: 12 Apr 2021 04:20 PM PDT

Hi all

Apart from the likes of love brewing's beerworks craft series kits and the bruphoria range from the homebrew company, does anyone know of other online shops selling similar kits?

Not looking for any inclusions of steeping grains or hops to boil, just plain old mix extract with water, ferment then dry hop when appropriate.

I've scoured the net but those two companies are the only ones I can see that fit the bill.

So here goes...

It's roughly a Best Bitter by the numbers. And it's had 45 minutes in the mash tun. Time to remove the freshly poured Brown Porter (AG14), and get sparging under way.

This month is Belgian month, and in it is a Belgian IPA , its bloody lovely.

Boiler query and recommendations for new equipment

Posted: 12 Apr 2021 03:09 PM PDT

Hi, I have a Ritchies boiler (quite old) upon which the thermostat failed quite a few years ago (probably around the time I stopped brewing - pics attached). Having gotten back into the habit, I'm looking at going from kits to try AG (I've been reading the excellent Clibit thread). I used to brew by boiling malt extract in the boiler with hops. I've been playing with the boiler and I can't get it to heat above about 85oC without the thermostat shutting off the element.

I'm contemplating...

Gelatin in FV?

Posted: 12 Apr 2021 03:09 PM PDT

I was thinking of trying Gelatin as and when needed and trying it in the FV, best technique I believe is to cold crash then add Gelatin (I understand how to mix it) then add to the FV and keep cold for another 48 hours.
The question I have though is will opening the FV and sucking air in to allow adding the gelatin cause any oxygenation problems for bottling?

Long time browser of the forums but first time poster.

Hello everyone

Newbie to brewing. I'm interested in brewing fruit wines, meads and ciders. I'm a wife and mum to 5, and we have a small property in the
Adelaide hills. I'm into growing and raising my own food which is what lead me to this new adventure - a glut of fruit.

I've just made my first batches which were
!. cheaters plum liqueur (literally soaking plums in alcohol so I don't think it counts)
2 10 ltrs of plum wine
3-5 I tried out mead. based mainly on information from CS...

A nod to Crankshaft

Hello brains trust.
I brewed this a month ago and was very happy with the beer initially.
2 weeks in it lost most of its hoppy appeal.

Any suggestions on why this might be?

I put the dry hops in just after high krousen, purged with co2. Used a brewloon to capture co2 and used it for suck back at cold crash.
Full starsan keg purge with co2.

This is the most effort I have put into oxygen mitigation and the results have left me a bit bewildered.

Cheers in advance.

Ps I will be keg hopping...

I did have this set up with 2 pumps which was great as I never had to change hoses once started. But works just as well with 1...

bound sediment throughout wort?

Hello,

I am reasonably new to grain brewing and have done about 8 brews so far with some mixed results. This is my second batch using a clear fermenter and I have noticed something which I haven't seen before. You can see in the attached pictures, but there seems to be sediment or something all through the wort? I would expect a bit in the bottom, but it is attached to the float and line, and floating all throughout.

I brewed this yesterday using BIAB method, 60 minute mash of 4kg of...
