Pitched two packets of Omegas tropical ipa yeast to a 1.062 wort around 75 degrees Monday night. Left in wrapped in blanket by heating vent and it got up to 88 Tuesday evening when I got back from work so I immediately unwrapped it and brought to basement till it was around 82 and brought it...

I was planning a juicy west coast style but bc of higher mash temp, hop selection and warmer fermentation temp, it seems to be trending toward a clear NEIPA. On day 8 it tasted kind of like a Hefeweizen and smelling it on Day 10 it’s very pineapple juice like. I used 1oz each of Amarillo and...

May not be possible but has anyone thought of trying to add small hop pellets into gas post of corny keg while simultaneously pushing some CO2 into keg through PRV valve? So you’re gently purging while adding hops? I know it’s a very tight fit but maybe with a long narrow tube they could fall...

I have conical fermenter, a corny keg with spunding valve and a CO2 tank. I don’t have an attachment for fermenter to perform a closed transfer. I’m worried about oxidation from soft crashing and then adding 2oz dry hop. Any advice on how to proceed that doesn’t involve much added cost?

I threw loose hops (4oz) into 5 gallon corny keg (4 gallons worth of 6.3% verdant NEIPA) and threw into fridge. Figured I should leave the hops in disturbed and was planning on carbing at least a few days after adding hops. I have a floating dip tube but am a little worried that I could have...

I put 5 gallon corny keg in fridge this morning and set the CO2 regulator to 16psi. It’s only contains about 3.5 gallons. I’m using 5/16” diameter hosing and will be using a direct disconnect metal faucet tap on the liquid out post once more carbonated. I took a quick sample yesterday with...

I was planning on quickly dropping my kegs temp from 70 to 50 by placing in fridge for 24 hours, then place in basement closet and dry hop around 55 degrees. I transferred beer to keg on day 5 so it’s my secondary fermentation vessel but I plan to serve from it as well (dip tube has been...

This is my first time kegging. I have 3.5 - 4 gallons in a corny keg. On day 5, I transferred from conical (1st time using it) to the corny keg which I cut the dip tube on bc it will be both my secondary fermentation and serving vessel (cut off bottom of dip tube around 2 in). My OG was 1.080...

Hi everyone. Started brewing last summer. Currently on my 4th batch and recently upgraded some equipment so I can start kegging. Keep an eye out for a post from me shortly ;). So much to learn
