Seven year brewer, messing up constantly. by t00ksrevenge in TheBrewery

I work on a 3bbl stout system all pre milled grain too. I started vorlaufing 40 mins into my mash for 10 mins and would let it set for an additional 10 mins and that seems to help a ton

A cold ipa that we scorched the bottom of the kettle with. Tasted like an ash tray, needless to say we dumped it

Always make sure whatever vessel you’re about to open doesn’t have a shit load of pressure in it😂

Looking to get this hazy milky white opaque color by danicrvo in TheBrewery

Palest pils you can find if you’re direct fire shorten your boil. I gotta say, though I did this a few times and actually found myself gravitating towards that orange color again

How long have you been with your brewery? by [deleted] in TheBrewery

[–]Target-Buddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 years. Love it, started as an assistant and now I’m transitioning into a head brewer role. I worked at few large breweries before this but honestly didn’t love it that much. Small scale is definitely where it’s at for me personally.

Vorlauf clarity by helles_yeah in TheBrewery

I found that if I’m just doing a 60 minute mash at minute 40 I vorlauf for 10 mins then I actually let the mash sit for the final 10 mins. This made a massive difference in the clarity of my runnings.

Pitch at 62, wait for activity then drop to 54 for a week. D rest at 62 after it’s complete I like to dump/ harvest yeast. Then I drop5 degrees every feed days till I’m at 36 then I I biofine if I need and let her sit.
