I use irish moss for last 15 mins of boil - always have done...

I use anglian water tap water, plus AMS, plus AWB, plus calcium chloride, no change there.

ARNWD - YES - i SWITCHED TO FRESH YEASTS A FEW MONTH AGO - I may now switch to Nottingham to see if it is better - lesson learned - don't be a cheapskate - and my burco heating element has just packed up.....

BB - you describe "how it used to be". Clib - it is a fresh pack every time, well within date. I make a yeast starter with bottled water.

AJA - I ferment then bottle. I have not changed anything, but the yeast sediment characteristics have changed.

Hi BB - I am talking about the sludge in FV before bottling.

Usually the sludge at end of fermentation is a compact pancake, but my last 3 brews it has been a load of discrete blobs that are easily disturbed when I bottle. I have not changed anything about my brewing technique. Any ideas brewers and brewsters ?

A contact at a local brewery has told me that PM and hop prices are about to go up 30-40% still good value though....

activity has stopped and I see no scientific reason why bottling in 2 litre PET bottles is different to leaving a further 8 days in primary. bottle conditioned = a little bit of yeast remaining in contact with the beer until I open the bottle

I biab full volume (32 litres) for a 22 litre brew. 20 ml of AMS added as my water is quite hard. And I hydrate my yeast. And I bottle in 4 to 6 days. Full mash SMASH beers. Struggling to get enough flavour and aroma. Experimenting with strained hop tea added on day 3 of fermentation.. And...
