I followed this advice when I started and had bad results every time. Dumped multiple batches trying different purging techniques. Waste of time, IMHO. The only time I was successful I had to dry hop <48 hours after pitching yeast. Edit: to be clear, I went beyond purging 20 times. I ran co2...

That should be just fine. Some people up the pressure to 30-35PSI towards the end of fermentation at ale temps so the beer is naturally fully carbonated when it’s done fermenting. Cheers!

I’ve been vaping non stop for 8 years. Smoked cigarettes for 20 years. When I went to get checkups before switching my doctor would tell me my lungs are shot and would give me strong steroid inhalers. Just a month after switching to vaping she said, “Oh, wow! You quit smoking.” Every checkup...

I’m not familiar with these. Any more info?

It’s weird how people perceive things differently. This beer has been conditioning for a bit now and I think it seems more dry due to being a lil’ more bitter. It was my first time using an immersion chiller and I overshot the hopstand temp. Adjusted time / temp on the fly.

I haven't used Helio Gazer before. Thanks for the info! Going to try mashing super high and increasing OG on the next one.

I've changed up the recipes quite a bit. I don't remember any being perceptibly sweet even if they had higher FG. My previous ones were rough, though. The most difficult thing was dry hopping. I followed internet advice and either ended up with undesirable hop character(dry hopping too early) or...

Cheers! Yes, so far I've used: A38 Juice Verdant IPA Dry Voss Helio Gazer

maybe so. I used some golden naked oats in the last one, but at 10% it still seemed dry. FG was a little higher, too.

Here’s the recipe: Hazy IPA - Mark Mathis Brewfather I highly recommend trying Helio Gazer

I’m going to try to mash high and increase OG, but the point is these two beers have roughly the same OG and FG. One is perceptibly sweet and one is dry.

I’ve been brewing hazy IPA for a year now. My latest one is the best I’ve made yet, but seems dry. OG 1.063 FG 1.012 Sierra Nevada has a newer beer called “Juicy Little Thing.” It’s in my top 3 of all time. It’s very tropical like mine, but is perceptibly sweet. Just enough to make to really...

I’m not, but I’m working on it. Very picky.

I got a couple of the flow control disconnects and they don’t work well on any setting. Foaming up way too bad. You can see it in the line. Don’t recommend. The fit was fine here, though.

Nice, you bet.
