When does your juicy ipa usually finish? Does it go the whole 14 days? Or more? Just checked mine(day 6) SG was 1012 so I added the citra thinking it cant have much more to go on it

So it would just clear and all end up in the bottom of the keg instead of ther fermenter then I guess. Any way to achieve that hazy effect that some ipa's have?

I'm thinking I would like this beer to be a bit hazy if possible, if I didnt cold crash and just put straight into the keg once fermentation was done would this help give me that effect? Of would it all just drop out as soon as the keg went into the fridge to be drunk?

One thing I'm still not sure about and think I may be making mistakes with these kits. It says add the hops after 7days for last 3 days of fermentation. But this doesnt allow for a cold crash... So my question is do you? A) Add the hops during cold crash? B) Add the hops and then remove for...

Nice got my larder fridge off ebay this week for £30 and made it today!

This is a great build, just done mine today but on a smaller scale! I saw you made a shelf for the kegs. Do you think the glass shelf would be strong enough to hold 2 full kegs or is a shelf a must?

Ye it does say that you can cut it. Start off in 30cm lengths till you get the desired amount. Have you cut your line yet???

Wow that is low. Bet that blew ya head off!

After much worrying. The new hydrometer arrived and gave me the answer I was hoping... the old one was ***** 🤣🤣🤣. New reading was stable for a couple of days around the 1007 at 1c. All smells great as well. Racked into my new kegs tonight and got the 19lt full and 3 bottles for good measure. I...

Is that including a cold crash?

You are drinking it after 3 weeks? From when you started the whole thing? That's FAST!

Cool guys I'll leave it then. Had to change out the airlock today as it was blowing krausan out the top. Cobbled together a burping tube into a jar lol! Really busy fermenting. First time ive used this kind of fv(got a coopers on with loose lid)and didnt realise how my co2 was realised! It's...

How did you attach you muslin cloth to the tube? Zip tie? String?

Just started this kit today, couldn't get the enhancer so have gone with 1kg of dextrose Instead. No room in the fermenting fridge as I have a red IPA cold crashing in there so its gotta just stay inside, living room goes from about 19-22c at the moment so I'm hopi g it will be fine.SG was 1042...

So if Ok cool so if it levels off hopefully tomorrow or the next day I should be ok? It has definitely slowed right down over the last week since dry hops added.

Ok Ok thanks for the tip, how can I tell if I have an infection? No weird smells I can sense, looks fine. What should be my next course of action?

Ye it's a plastic one. But it should still read 1000 in water so something must be wrong with it....... need to get one asap.

Looks like it's not a label it's almost printed on it. It's a coopers one that came with their brewing kit

Just checked the hydrometer in room temp water. Its reading 0.996. So it's out somewhat. Do I just adjust up?
