Thank you NB!

Sadly this link died recently. :(

Cold crashing WILL improve your clarity, but you may need to add yeast back to the bottles when you add priming sugar. In fact, I would just plan for this. You NEED to make sure this beer carbonates. I moved away from bottling mainly to reduce the workload, but I see the need for beers like...

Buy the yeast online through a reputable vendor, such as MoreBeer, AustinHomeBrewSupply, or others you may have heard. It's winter so yeast is OK to ship unlike the summer.

Some feedback, based on the above batch #354 I brewed following the recipe in the original post. The beer is fantastic, it's crystal clear now, and just... nice. I grabbed a 12 pack of Sam Adams Boston Lager - "best by June 2020" - assuming it was fresher than the 6 pack best by March. SA...

This is likely an old post revival, but props to OG. Batch #354 and I still see what others are doing to make beers. I went ahead and brewed this recipe, 11 gallons. It’s awesome. :) ~Adam

Solid thread! Thank you to the OG and OP - I suggest they go back and edit the original post to include the most recent recipe to avoid any confusion for first time viewers! As a fan of this beer, one of my favorite, I brewed some triple of late. We did not spice it up - but we did three...

Pro-homebrew-tip: Don't take pics of your finished beer as it's exposed to open air. Keep it closed, transfer without oxygen.

The fun part is that everyone's base water is so different...so it's sometimes hard to get matching profiles. I feel bad for the Michigan waters... I'm spoiled. I would suggest using the EZ Water Calculator - you can google it and find it. It's quite a bit simpler than Bru'n Water. You just...

I think this is gonna be a good beer..kegged and carbonating!

kegged my beers today mentioned back on page 4 or 6. very happy with the flavor profile of both beers that used Cryo for whirlpool! Carbonating now to get the full aroma verdict! Cheers and beers, ~Adam

Let us know! (And how you added it to the keg)

^Good info, thanks dude!

I do have one of those stainless steel screen canisters now, I actually got mine at stainlessbrewing.com I think. This approach to adding hops to kegs is a bit different than when I first started! I suppose I'll give keg hopping another whirl. I too did not get grassy, but I've found I can...

Schlenkerla, are you proposing whirlpool only without a dry hop? I considered this on my 6oz cryo whirlpool beer. I added 2oz cryo and 2oz dry hops yesterday though. :) ~Adam
