    'Greeny' hop taste

    Spectrum adds a ton of aroma, but less flavour than the 'equivalent' amount of T90 pellets in my short experience of using it

    'Greeny' hop taste

    Just give it another week. I find the green taste usually fades in a week, occasionally can take more. Take Verdant Putty for example. Hot off the press it's hot and grassy/oniony. A few weeks later it's more balanced. Other question, is there any hop detritus in your glass?

    I got one too. Sounds like it could be worth it, particularly if brewing outside.

    January Brew and Swap

    Wlp001 will be fine, of course take care not to underpitch.

    Starter or no starter

    You are fine without a starter in this situation. Bigger gravity, volume, pitching cold, or old yeast will benefit from a starter.

    NEIPA overthinking?

    Agree with this. Indeed, you want to stop them getting moist!

    NEIPA overthinking?

    I picked up a vacuum sealer for 19.99 from the middle of Lidl. Works a treat as long as the bags aren't overfilled.

    6 years later...

    Batch size? Double check your bittering hops, I suspect these might be on the high side for a NEIPA/hazy. Move some to a late boil/whirlpool? Your dry hop amount is also low for the style, it'll probably drop clear, but then call it an IPA!

    Is wordle harder than it used to be? I started replaying recently and am yet to get a 2, and get more 4s.

    Colour adjustment via toasting

    There's no harm in putting gravy browning in beer - it's just caramel after all. If I did it I'd feel I was going back in time 20 years though.

    Thiol Libre yeast - IPA fruit bomb!

    That explains this one. I wouldn't recommend, tastes like lime pith.

    NEIPA overthinking?

    Hop pellets won't oxidise in a week. They have very little surface area, so you are probably overthinking it. What I'd be considering most is how you transfer from FV to pressure barrel, as that is by far the biggest risk.

    Grain prices creeping up.

    This goes on everywhere. Brewery, puts up price of cask by 10%, so now Β£1.25 a pint. Pub, puts up price per pint to Β£6+, cites increasing beer costs, wonders why pub is empty.

    Bairds Malt.......

    I've used it extensively, and it was fine. Got good efficiency from Maris Otter in my last brew, nearing 80%. Previously used a sack of Golden Promise, that too was fine. This was all from Brewer's Select in Peterborough.
