I didnt. Just smeared it on a piece of baking paper and left it overnight in the oven. Its dry allright!When drying out the kveik slurry do you wash it first?
Do you own an airing cupboard over a hot water tank?Has anyone tried dehydrating the slurry by spreading it on parchment then putting it in an airtight tin with silica gel? Does silica absorb enough moisture for this to work?
With small children I’m reluctant to leave the oven on overnight and I don’t own a dehydrator.
Nope, combi boiler in a kitchen cupboard. No water tank at all.Do you own an airing cupboard over a hot water tank?
gotta love a brew with a quick turnaround time. I have a saison on the go in comparison. might be drinkable late september?
You'll have to lock your kids up in the cellar for a bit and dry it on a radiator I guess.Nope, combi boiler in a kitchen cupboard. No water tank at all.
I have a American wheat beer mashing at the min which I plan fermenting with kviek. I plan an underpitch to try and get as much out flavours out of the yeast. What's the max temp I can pitch at. 35-40 ?
Haha, beat me to it.What type? Here is a list of strains and some info on pitching temps? garshol.priv.no/download/farmhouse/kveik.html
It's the kviek Dan gave me which I think you gave him. Voss kviek
The Voss is a bottom cropping yeast. I normally pour all the slurry into a 2l bottle or anything i have available and store in the fridge. Never bothered with water. If i dry hop i normally ditch the yeast and use it from a starter.How are people harvesting the yeast. Top cropping or slurry. Is it good enough to store the slurry in the fridge in an air tight container with a bit of preboiled water
