    Brew with coffee

    I'd suggest adding light or medium roast whole beans for 12-24 hours in your fermenter, assuming fermentation has already stopped and you are getting ready to keg or bottle. Unless you like vegetal off-flavors in your beer, I wouldn't keep it longer that. Use fresh, good quality beans for this...

    All Grain Beginner Kit Questions

    I'm trying to help a buddy who wants to get into brewing and needs to get equipment. He wants to go straight into 5 gallon all grain brewing. I am trying to find a kit that will have all the items he will need. Does anyone have recommendations? I started out on a friend's brewing setup so I...

    Hornindal Kveik is blowing my mind

    Just opened a bottle from split batch pale ale I made. Orange/tangerine flavor and smell is very dominant in this. I dry hopped with 3oz of Calypso 4 days before bottling. I can detect the hop character from the Calypso, but it seems much more subtle than the taste/smell the yeast contributes.

    Hornindal Kveik is blowing my mind

    I used 1 tablespoon of slurry from the pouch on my most recent beer. Very sluggish start and in a couple of days looked like it was about to come to end fermentation. I checked on it a couple days after that and the yeast was going crazy. This yeast behaves differently than any other yeast I've...

    Brett + Kviek Pale Ale Help (First Brett Beer)

    I got a little caught up and haven't had time to brew. This Sunday I am going for it. I will update the progress of the beer. I may just let the fermenter with the brett ride for 3+ months or so and see how it goes. I'm going to try not to take any samples, in an attempt to introduce as little...

    I'm interested to see if anyone has a comparable Imperial Stout they'd be interested in trading for this.

    Hornindal Kveik is blowing my mind

    Hornindal is non-phenolic. You shouldn't get any clove or banana with these yeasts.

    Hornindal Kveik is blowing my mind

    Day One (Brew Day)- Threw hops in a bag and whirlpooled starting at 165 F and let temperature naturally fall for about 20- 30 minutes. Cooled wort to 95 and pitched. Day 2- I think it was about 14 hours after pitching I added 4oz of hops in a bag to the fermenter. I need to find my notes, but I...

    Hornindal Kveik is blowing my mind

    If my memory suits me correctly this happened to me as well. I pitched at 95, and it fermented at 87 I believe. My OG was 1.064 when I brewed on a Sunday. I took a reading on Wednesday and was down to 1.020. When I bottled Sunday the FG was at 1.016.

    Dry Hopping one gallon batches

    I brewed my first 1 gallon batch from a kit that a friend no longer wanted. I added some flaked oats in an attempt to make a NEIPA. I'm used to doing 5 gallon batches so when I only got 7 beers I was a little pissed. Beer tasted good though.

    Brett + Kviek Pale Ale Help (First Brett Beer)

    I’m looking to brew a pale ale and ferment with brett + sacch. I've never brewed with brett and could use a bit of guidance. I will be using Omega's Hornindal Kveik and Omega Bit O Funk Brett. I will be making a 10 gallon batch and will splitting into 2 separate fermenters. One fermenter will...
