    WLP925 high pressure lager yeast question

    Hi all, Just finished fermenting with WLP925 high pressure lager yeast. Fermented at 18C (65f) under 15psi pressure as suggested by white labs. Final gravity 1.008 with OG 1.047. Beer has been lagering at 2C (36f) for about a week. The beer is still very cloudy (wort was clear when yeast...

    Hey Spunders, did your beer quality go up after you discoverd spunding?

    I've also not found real guidelines wrt fermenting under pressure. Some useful information on Scott Janish's blogg - he gets into the weeds with some good research references. http://scottjanish.com/fermenting-dry-hopping-pressure/ Cheers

    Hey Spunders, did your beer quality go up after you discoverd spunding?

    I've only done a single batch where I used a spunding valve, so have still got a lot to learn and many questions. Am I able to dry hop and use gelatin for fining in beer that is being spunded? Thanks in advance

    Kia ora from NZ

    Hi, my name is Jon and I live in beautiful rural NZ. I'm a newbie to brewing so will probably be lurking at first - soaking up all the knowledge out there. Threw down my first brew 2 weeks ago (extract kit) - fingers crossed it's fit for human consumption. Looking forward to this journey...
