Yes. Either this or pruulimeistrid.

Hello. Its been in bottles 4 weeks. So it definetly has smoked flavour to it. And its an interesting and enjoyable beer...but...next time i would either use less(~7%) or more(~30%+) smoked malt. Less if I didn't want noticeable hint of smoke. But just some flavour complexity and more layered...

Hello So it definetly has smoked flavour to it. And its an interesting and enjoyable beer...but...next time i would either use less(~7%) or more(~30%+) smoked malt. Less if I didn't want noticeable hint of smoke. But just some flavour complexity and more layered flavour on top off other caramel...

Yes..for now i will take break from brewing for few weeks. Drink what i can and what stays fine i can drink slower. Clean with bleach... start storing separetly from other things that is yet not cleaned. And start from something basic. No dryhopping no whirpool hops or anything that adds more...

For now i must drink as much as possible as quickly as possible. Before they start to get off flavours. I have around 160 bottles to go...:cool::bott:

Yes. This has to be the case. Infection. There is no other explenation. Its either a bucket or siphon(especially the damn hose). Glass bottles should be sanitary after hot pbw cleaning with brush, rinsing and soaking in starsan. Buckets are easy to clean but bacteria may have some hiding places...

Thank you. But I belive that i can rule out oxidation. I had oxidation problems on my heavily hopped beers before i knew how sensitive those hoppy beers are. After learning this it finally explained why all of my hoppy beers before had similar taste and never anything tropical... so i learned...

Im sure it can't be oxidation because there is zero changes in color. I use all the good practices to avoid oxidation that i got from the long thread about bottling neipas. Before i learn about it my dryhopped beer used to change in color on and develop kinda old sweet strawberry jam flavour...

Hello again. Im am totally lost now. im playing russian roulette with my brews. One Neipa that has been in bottles little over 2 weeks now is starting to get same off flavours. Even tho it was done with extra cleaning measures.😭 Only difference is it seems to be noticeable with slower rate...

Okay. Yeah sounds about right then. my recepie was 62% MO 15% smoked 10% roasted/chocolate 8%crystal 5% melano (wich also gives body)

Gravity is now stuck at 1.018. Did it finish high or is it stuck? based on calculations it should go down to 1.014. I usually get close to estimated FG and was expecting even lower fg with Us05. I did mash in around 68-69c. But i havent had neipas finish that high even when used lot of oats and...

H2O to fuel my morning workout

My current 15L(4gal) neipa is getting dryhopped with 285g(10oz) of hops. Plus huge wp. Several others have been very close. Call it a tropical fruit salad if you want but they taste damn juicy and delicious. I might go bankrupt tho 🤣 There is not only one way to make beer...But other times you...

I have lallemand voss dry east that expires this month. So that's that. Gotta make it work.

I have already 3 Neipas(2 in bottles third fermentting). So i was planning on something different to brew this weekend. I need it ready by the 26 of april for the weekend with my friends of craft beer enthusiast. This gives me around 3weeks wich is perfect with voss... What if i use orange peel+...
