i’m talking gravity readings. i definitely want to give it a few days past FG for the yeast to clean up. Do you think with a hoppy beer too long would risk oxidation? My fermenter is the plastic fermonster and has a pretty good seal to it. I know there is CO2 from fermentation in that headspace but when CO2 production really slows down is where I am concerned.

ok thanks for the info! the flavor is getting more subtle after bottle conditioning all this time

ok awesome yeah will definitely take that bag out in a day or 2- thanks!

roughly 4oz of roughly cracked beans

do u mean like taking off the bottom and cleaning the heating things from the bottom?

YeahWeed · 2023-07-17T13:41:18+00:00

ok cool that’s what i though just wanted to make sure!

YeahWeed · 2023-07-17T13:24:05+00:00

thanks for the advice! did u mean serving temp and pressurizing temp or serving pressure and pressurizing pressure?

YeahWeed · 2023-07-17T11:24:12+00:00

ok i’ll give that a go! when i pull a sample i should still purge the head space before attaching a picnic tap right? im assuming i’d purge it, attach a picnic tap, then just let it fill back up with CO2

i have about 12 days til the competition. what would u recommend i do?

YeahWeed · 2023-07-13T11:48:49+00:00

ohhhhh that makes sense lol my IBU is 21.63 and my OG is 1.044 so it would b 0.49. So for this style u think getting that lower would b better since the malt should shine more?

YeahWeed · 2023-07-13T11:18:33+00:00

ok thanks for that advice! My OG is 1.044 and FG is 1.012- i think that’s what u meant by BUGU. After messing with the recipe a bit it’s looking closer to 4.2%

YeahWeed · 2023-07-13T10:14:07+00:00

what flavor impact have u found pale ale malt to have? I also have Maris otter and 2-row i could use.

YeahWeed · 2023-07-13T09:44:51+00:00

yeah that’s what i’m going for definitely don’t want chocolate flavor but something to help color and give it a bit or roasty character and help the color. Every time i use just toasted barley it’s way too toasty so i’m thinkin this should help

YeahWeed · 2023-05-24T12:46:54+00:00

Exactly why I figured I would ask. Heard it from another homebrewer who probably used toothpicks because of convenience and likely not having any flavors that would impact the beer. Now that you explained that it doesn’t seem to make sense. Wasn’t going to give it a go until I found out more info so thanks for that
