Ended up brewing today, took BMoney's recipe for our PhilantHrOPPY IPA at Iron Brewer but switched the hops to the ones from my medal winning Rosemary IPA. Rosemary NEIPA coming soon. 1.072 OG.

2.0 oz Saaz @ FWH
1.0 oz Saaz @ 45

Ha. A variety of this recipe won gold at Dixie Cup.
ETA: A west coast styled version with more bittering hops, plenty of 5 and 10 minute hops, no whirlpool, and US-05.

Kegged my Citra/Nelson IPA Friday night. Had some issues with getting too much hop trub into the keg. Note to self: don't keg beer when drunk. Carbonated on Saturday, but had a helluva time with a clogged dip tube. Finally got it pouring, but still had a bunch of hop junk coming out of the keg. Gave up on Saturday, and tried again Sunday. Still a bit of hops in the glass, but holy hell, this tasted amazing.
No filter on the pic. This is exactly what it looks like.

i kegged my 3rd NEIPA, and a kolsch last night. to add to the peach wheat i havent tried yet. and all my fermenters are empty. I think im going to do your peach Berliner Weisse this week.
Question, Did you boil after sparging, before pitching lacto?

Nope, just collected the full volume after sparge and cooled to 105-ish before pitching the lacto.
Did a quick 15 minute boil after the lacto did its thing 2 days later.

well i guess that's easy enough. im guessing if i just leave it in the garage this week with all the rain and highs of 85 i should be fin right? should i put my keggle in a water bath with anova running to keep it higher than ambient temp?

Mine did fine inside my 66 degree beer room. Gigayeast lacto blend took it down to 3.06ph. I didn't measure what it was prior to pitching though.

Brewed up a 10 gallon batch of TropicAle over the weekend. Bought a 7 gallon Fermonster to replace a better bottle.
Real cheap for 7 gallons and I like it so far, minus no easy way to hold on to it.

Update for you: My Mad Fermentationist Sour Blend Carboy is still bubbling for a 3rd+ straight week. This thing may get pretty dry.
My Sour Solera Blend 2016 that i propped up in a starter has stopped bubbling in the airlock.
My next brew will be my French benefits saison, but i will use Bootleg's saison parfait sach yeast in the primary. Once primary finishes, i'll pitch bootleg's Funk Weapon #2.
After this batch, i will officially be out of packaged bootleg cultures.

I'm gonna try to feed and revive my brett culture in preparations for a brett ipa hopefully they respond well, it's been a while
Posted on 5/31/17 at 6:13 pm to BugAC
I don't know what's up with mine. Might dump it and start over. It is not good.

Brewed a neipa tonight (18% oats, rest 2 row @154f) and used simcoe and azacca in fiscally irresponsible quantities at flame out. I'm trying Yeast Bay Vermont ale strain with it.
It's gonna be hefe season when I get back from traveling later this week :)

Never fed my brett, but when I kegged my house beer I left an inch or so over the yeast/bug cake and will use it again on my next batch.

I rebrewed my Bootleg saison this past weekend, changing out the falconers flight for Saaz. The first one I brewed had something on the hot side that wasn't going away. Endeded up astringent. This second batch is already leaps and bounds better only a few days in. The lacto is already a little bit beefier than the first round. Has a nice saison nose.

soooooo i made a mistake.......I started my kettle sour last Wednesday night. Pitch my lacto on thursday morning once it was cool. Was going to boil saturday morning but ended up going out and was really hungover. Went out again Saturday and repeat. Well i just realized that it is still in the garage.
Should i:
A) just boil tonight and ferment and see how it goes.
B) Dump it and just do a good cleaning.
