Would a large Columbus dry hop instead of galaxy work out?

I am kind of stuck. Maybe too many options is the problem. I figure I can just dry hop with Galaxy or add some Columbus which I haven't dry hopped with before. But is there something different to give a pop in the nose when you drink it. I have virtually most the hops, hash, and cryo to use...

Yup yup!

Took a while but here's two shots of the flow with the new pump. This was with 5.5 oz of pellet hops combined boil and hopstand. The hops were all caked up against the pump like the stock but this flowed much better and consistently the same. The original pump never flowed like this. Happy...

Hey everyone, long time no post. Well, my GF pump stopped pumping with the CFC chiller two brews ago. I had a really old CFC when I bought my GF so got a new one and that didn't fix it, just wasn't making it through. So I got a new pump on Aliexpress delivered today and plugged it in. I...

Nice. I appreciate the feedback.

Thank you, this is good info. Really helpful.

Is this a good starting point? I think I need bru n water? How are all these measured? Calcium - 125 Mg - 10 Sodium - 25 Cl - 60 Sulf - 300 As you can see really new to this. Brewing for a while now but just getting into my own water now. Thanks.

I need some help please. So I want to start making beer from RODI and build the profile from scratch. I have a large RODI machine and that end is all ready. Since I only brew IPA I wonder if there is a standard makeup to use? I'm having a hard time finding it so far the amount of calcium and...

I agree. I've never brewed with that much oats though. I want to try this for sure! Thank you as well. Just got to get me some Denali now (like the only hop I don't have, lol). I guess I could substitute WLP001, right?

doesn't seem to be for US or they already sold out

Thank you!!

Just got first in a competition sponsored by my club in the American IPA and won BOS with the GF! (woot) I love this thing, it can make GREAT BEER, NO DOUBT! I have made a few changes on this since starting (kudos back to those on this thread with the good advice) and will keep status quo now...
