    Got free bottles to give away? Post 'em here!

    11 cases of 12oz bottles (264 bottles with case or half case boxes). All of them amber and clean inside, but only about half have the labels removed. Most of the label free bottles are long necks, most of the labeled bottles are heritage. 6 cases of 22oz bottles (72 bottles in random boxes...

    Black Toad Ale Clone - Help

    Hi All, My wife recently found Black Toad ale at Trader Joe's and is asking me to brew something very similar. From my research and emailing the brewery there are no recipes available. Here are the stats I have OG: 1.058 FG: 1.018 ABV: 5.2% (The bottle says 5.3% but I measured the FG and...

    Lager: hazy when cold, clear when warm

    A valid option and I would be totally fine with drinking hazy lagers if there wasn't an off flavor associated with it. AFAIK chill haze is supposed to be tasteless which makes me suspect there is something else going on. :D

    Lager: hazy when cold, clear when warm

    There are multiple experiments in which people have brewed with 34/70 and WY2124 at higher temps and without affecting flavor so this isn't as binary of a situation as you are proposing. I understand the value of equipment, but my decisions were not made foolheartedly or without research. I...

    Lager: hazy when cold, clear when warm

    I know my ferm schedule is warm, but that's the lowest I can go. Even without the "proper" ferm/chill schedule wouldn't the beer be cloudy all the time, even at room temp? The fact that it's clear at room temp baffles me.

    Lager: hazy when cold, clear when warm

    I could be wrong but don't think this is chill haze. I mashed with a protein rest, used whirlfloc in the boil, and chilled at my normal rate. I've never had an issue with chill haze before. Also, most sources have said chill haze will clear after a week and that chill haze has no flavor...

    Beer is Hazy, and tastes like a Hefeweizen

    I have a similar experience and asked the question anew here: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?p=8143165#post8143165

    Lager: hazy when cold, clear when warm

    I am having a weird experience with my first lager that could just be a noob thing. I've been brewing ales for 8 years and this is my first lager. Oktoberfest/Marzen brewed with Wyeast 2124 Whirlfloc in the boil Fermented at 60* for 1.5 weeks (lowest I can do) Brought up to 68* for 1 week Back...

    So who's brewing this weekend?

    What's your recipe? I submitted a Spitfire clone to a comp in the Strong Bitter and the judge said it reminded it him of Adnams. I've only ever brewed it with 1275 so slightly interested to compare and see how close we are.

    Wyeast 2575-PC Kolsch II Yeast

    Yeah I would agree that WLP029 doesn't have the same character as the Wyeast versions. I might look into GY021. I was hoping to ferment low and the strain data says it goes to about 60 (which could be low enough) and if it floccs well that could fit the bill. Still, if anyone has the strain I...

    Wyeast 2575-PC Kölsch II

    Thanks for the input. I was specifically looking into 2565 or 2575 since I don't have the ability to lager. I can get to 60* or high 50s and pseudo-lager but I am still looking for a malt forward yeast rather than a neutral ale yeast and I have found that WY1007 is a little lacking.

    Wyeast 2575-PC Kolsch II Yeast

    Shot in the dark cause it's been a while since Wyeast released 2575, but anyone have this in their vault? I'm thinking about a festbeir-style ale and this strain seems to clear up better than Kolsch.

    I know this is an old thread, but anyone have this in their vault? I'm thinking about a festbeir-style ale and this strain seems to clear up better than Kolsch.

    Bière de Garde and Saison yeast in BJCP style?

    Yea, I did get dinged for tart notes and the comment was about using the proper yeast. Yeah I have seen recipes with WY1007 or WY2565. But what I'm trying to understand is the presence of recipes with Saison or Belgian strains. AHA's site has a recipe with WLP550. Wyeast's site list...

    College Student in need of HELP! (and good beer)

    Idaho 007 hops have a strong black tea flavor. Sierra Nevada used them in a Single Hop series and it was very pronounced, totally tasted like they added black tea to the beer. From what I have read using them late in the boil and dry hopping produces the black tea flavor...
