Yeah I have the same experience, maybe OP is not making a very clean transfer from carboy to keg..

I used an airlock when I stepped up bottle dregs and didn't have any issues. And like others have said, my first starters volume was smaller and I believe lower gravity as well

Thank you OP for a wonderful recipe, I entered my sour variation of this (using jp weizen bam bottle dregs) into the wisconsin state fair amateur homebrew competition under category 28b and got a first place ribbon and scored 37.5. Though, I was the only entry in category 28.

I'd bet that its done fermenting, I've fermented that cool before without issue. I would move it to a warmer room and dry hop though

New price: FREE

Moving next week and this thing isn't coming along, I bought it off craigslist about 3 years ago from someone who had been using it as a garage fridge. I gutted it and then drilled a hole in the side for a gas line and two holes in front for taps. Works great, I've been using it for several...

I used standard 12oz bottles, 3.3oz cornsugar for ~3 gallons, its only been just over two weeks no problems yet

I never brew sober

wow im surprised. unless its a #2 im ALWAYS standing...if its too dark turn a light on and close one eye. needed to post this just because of the overwhelming number of guys saying they sit, girls sit. j/s

Just checked in on these ladys today, wow what a transformation Both of them measure at 1.000 SG. the Bruery one is super clear, tastes great, plenty of brett funk. the JP one is completely opaque and is distinctly sour/acidic couldn't detect any offlavors at this point, ive never used any...

This sounds like an exaggeration, my wine thief allows little clearance for the hydrometer inside it and my readings dont seem off at all. I spin the hydrometer and let it settle down a couple times and it consistently goes to the same number

white laps wlp023 I had great success with this yeast in my last ipa and am using it again this weekend on another ipa http://www.whitelabs.com/yeast/wlp023-burton-ale-yeast

Funny, I did a version 3 weeks ago now, split it up and one of the batches definitely has brett B (bruery saison de lente dregs). We shall see indeed!

Yeah they have been fermenting for three weeks tomorrow, at 80-85F, will be taking them out of the chamber to let them age at room temp for several months. I dont plan on doing any type of secondary.

google "blow-off tube" for your best answer

I made this two weeks ago and split the batch into two, with stepped up bruery saison de lente in one and jp weizen bam in the other Gravity came in high at 1.071, I extended the boil because I thought my mash efficiency was way low but beersmith was counting the candi sugar in the mash also so...

I had something that looked similar before, it looks like a film might be developing on yours. if thats the case, itll become much more obvious in time and also smell like sour/green apples (at least mine did). the film will become much more apparent and offcolor. this is what mine ended up...

Your regulator must be messed up if its releasing pressure so high, I can adjust mine down to 0 psi...
