I do enjoy me some head 🤣. In fact, I add 5% chit or wheat to almost every recipe to make sure I get it.

Perfect! I have one on the way. I’m a big fan of Czech lagers but I don’t brew them because they are always so much better when served properly.

I’m probably going to order one of these today. Reviews I’ve read have mostly been positive, but I was curious to know how many here have one of these and if they are happy with it. I just don’t think I can justify spending $550 after shipping and an adapter for the Lukr...

Took a gravity reading for my pale ale. Down to 1.010 as expected. This is the the first non-lager I’ve brewed in well over a year 😎

HB 5% Pseudo Schwarzbier made with Lutra. Not bad. I’ll bottle a few of these up for some tailgating Saturday 🤠

Right on. I’m thinking that too, but paranoid from the last batch. It has been sealed up the entire time and on C02 in the keezer for over a week. I may shake it up gently to see if it sinks.

Here we go again. Same fermenter. I washed with PBW and sanitized with star San 2 times, just to be completely thorough. I honestly went overboard on cleaning and sanitizing. This is a beer I brewed about 2.5 weeks ago. I cold crashed it last Friday and just got back from a week long work trip...

Brewed a Pseudo Schwarzbier yesterday 😁

HB German Pils. This is one of my favorite beers I brew. Unfortunately, the keg is about to kick 😞

Thanks! I was thinking about mashing around 152 since I’ve read Lutra usually attenuated highly.

Random bump. I was searching the forum for Lutra + Schwarzbier as I am planning one now. How did that one turn out? Any suggestions?

Damn. That’s my first infection. Thanks, guys.

If it helps, all I have done the last few days has been to raise it to 68F for a d rest.

Yes it is. It is a sealed fermenter.

Here we go again. I was about to cold crash this and noticed this white stuff floating around now. Yeast rafts or something icky?
