Abit of a headfull , but the long and short seems to be keep the temperature lower for hops and a shorter time . YEAH?

OH No , I have just bought this, the one with citra Hops? As the title says I have moved these posts here to keep the original on topic - Admin.

Many thanks , looked at calculator and this is how I got a figure @23l American ipa 2.2 co2, 20degrees I get for a 500ml bottle 2.67g Ha away to weigh my crb drops now for my next brew!

When you say racking, do you refer to syhoning , (need another bucket)! I can try that, how much sugar generally kg to litres. Dextrose?

OK , I get that , so when I get a carbonation drop asI do and I am using a 500ml bottle usually , I should halve the amount is what your saying . Drops are calculated for 370ml roughly. I try and lessen sediment by putting the hops in a muslin bag. Eruption doesnt always throw up the sediment ...

Yeah tried that , Thanks . It does help a little .

This is possibly the cause . All bottles are sterilised and thouraghly cleaned . final gravity is always pretty much to values recommended. So what is the solution , I have tried putting the hops in a Muslin bag , to stop hop trails of particles moving into the bottles. Not all bad , but...

I have been bottling my Beer kits for some time now using a carbonation drip to the finished article . Problem is a lot of the product on opening is over foaming out of the bottle .question is why ? Is there too much sediment or too much sugar(usually under level required) ? Re commended drops...

Hi Guys, I am also local in Elgin and know about Bishopmill , I have used them for extra accessories. I have for a year now used GETERBREWED , but postage costs and lack of Extract malt I used to get is no longer available.{Ukraine to blame I think} I don't seem to get back the taste or flavour...

Yes I have used them in the past, on the virtual! maybe checkout the costs , their depot is less than half mile away from me

Ah OK, I haven't see standard delivery options? Could be postcode differences. I am in Moray

Geterbrewed Ireland , use DHL next day service, been excellent. £12.99

Looking good that capper, I will start saving!

Interesting reading, I have been using Diclophenic Sodium , along with Ometrazol, for the adverse effects on the stomach, which works , but can take a week. Maybe try 100mg of that Allopurine or Colchacine which is less needy.

That's good info, temperature might have been too low although it was the Summer but a Scottish one at that! Retention of gas did get better lower down, but a lot of Co2 needed.Ill stick with bottles meantime.

Can't get any success with keeping, what are you doing it in please? I am doing bucket brewing and bottling , very successful at that Putting into a pressure barrel with priming sugar does not work , beer is flat. Checked for leaks and there are none.

Not sure if I can post , but best brew ever of the same recipe , albeit a powdered malt as I have had numerous in tubs is Citra IPA

Yes, a valid point, thank you. Didnt know this could change.. However this brew kit was bought for me , by the same person who started my homebrewing a year ago, and my purchases have been based on what I have been ordering before. So yeah , that is maybe the answer to all this.

Ah OK, thanks , so quite crucial to get bottling a little sooner, as the brew earlier was or I finished it earlier. Still don't discount colour which has been constant for a year. Not to worry, thanks again.

Forgot to say . pale and quite cloudy
