I’ve personally never really noticed any bitterness gained from an extended chilling time. I’m sure it happens but maybe the type of late hop additions I use just don’t translate into increased bitterness. You will have to just use your palate to decide if you are noticing anything. I use a...

Sorry for the late reply. I mash for 1 hour

Here is my recipe to give you another reference point. This recipe won first place 2017 Bluebonnet Brewoff Hop Showcase category which was brewing a beer with cluster hops. This beer was also entered in the light American beer category and earned 2nd place at the same competition. Cluster...

https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/657744/bier-de-marzen Here is my recipe for my Biere de Garde. I called it Bier de Marzen because I took my friends Marzen recipe added some sugar at flameout to boost the ABV. I used Wyeast 3522 as it is a restrained Belgian yeast. This beer...

No worries, thanks for looking into this!

Also, when you change the fermentor volume to 5.9 gallons to correct the gravity issue it then changes all of the water volumes in the Quick Water Requiment calculator.

So I’m not sure if this is an computer or human error on my part. I upgraded to a Fusion 15 brewing system and I’ve had a hard time dialing in my efficiency to get Brewer’s Friend to work well. I have my equipment profile with 2.5 quarts Kettle dead space and 1.1 quarts misc. losses. 4% wort...

I use Brewer's Friend on my laptop while I'm brewing. I have the app on my iPhone for recipe generation and to be able to access recipes when I'm at the home-brew shop. I have never used the app for brewing. I'm thinking about getting the iPad Pro to replace my laptop. Trying to get some...

Mosaic IPA

I like to use this online calculator. It has worked well when I have used Dextrose, Sugar and Beet Sugar. The temperature of the beer is the warmest it has been during fermentation or conditioning. So if your fermentation reached 70 degrees and then you cold crashed to 40, you would use 70...

Yup, I consider the color to be a match given that theirs is filtered.

So my second iteration is very close. Color looks good and the taste is almost there. Will have to decide as I go through this batch if there is anything I want to change.

Finally had a chance to do a side by side comparison. My first attempt is definitely darker. I also don't have the rye bite like the original. Still it has turned out to be a nice beer. I'm not sure when I will brew the next iteration but here is the recipe I will try out. I'm brewing a...

Thanks for the reply. I have not had any problems with pilsner malt in the past. I will actually brew a 2 gallon test batch first. My pot fits in the oven so it will not be too hard to mash longer.
