Hi guys, fermenting is doing great a part from the wort quite cloudy. Planning to fining with gelatin. How do you read this gravity btw? Is it 1.015? I found different versions of reading it online Thanks.

One more question, when should I expect a good activity now? And, would the fermentation take less to complete?

That's exactly what I did. I was very happy with the OG being a beginner so... Thanks for your reply guys! Really appreciate it

I just put the wort in the fermentor. I got an OG of 1.061 in about 13L. Ideally the batch should have been 15L but I'm quite happy with the OG. I also filtered the wort using a fine sanitized mesh so I got about 1L of thrub. Should I top it up to 15L anyway? Thanks a lot for your tips!

I think I am going to pitch the all starter in. I'm going to read OG now. Just cooked the worth :)

I didn't use a lid. Im using a loose foil

I meant WL570 sorry that was a typo. I don't usually make starters but my supplier sent me a 5 months old yeast!

Sorry that was a typo. I meant 570 lol

Hi guys, I've made my 1st yeast starter using a 5months old WL870. Left it in a jar for 26 hours (no Krausen but definitely bubbling). Now I transferred it to the fridge (12hours ago) and it's still producing bubbles from bottom and have very little foam at top. Wort is not very clear either at...

Thanks guys, I will keep you posted

I'm planning to brew it this weekend based on your suggestion. WLP550 is out of stock from my supplier. Do you think WLP570 would do a good job too? Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. I will adjust the fermentables accordingly as see what happens. On my original recipe I should get an ABV of 5.6%. I suppose it should be pretty much the same with your suggestion. Is it too daring trying to increase it for this particular type of beer?

Hi all, I'm fairly new to brewing. I've always used kits so far and I'm trying to build a recipe based on ingredients that I can find locally and recipes I found online. I love Belgian blonde style Ales so I'm trying to build a non too complicated recipe. How does this recipe look like to you...
