Keezer is spotless, the bright side!

I was kind of pouring it on about award winning! It had a great Mosaic hoppy nose, was very clear, nice white head but flavor profile was not what it should have been. Contest was to brew a clone of Beachwood Amalgamator IPA. This would have been my first submission to be judged, was lookin...

Just kidding of course!!

When I force carbed I had the the pressure at 28 lbs. Put it in the keezer at 10 pounds, checked it an hour later and it was foamy but pourable. This was Tuesday night. Wednesday night wanted to taste and check carbonation, still pouring big head so turned pressure down to 7 lbs. Decided to...

Wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? Filled my keg, force carbed it, had a taste from it the next night and wanted to wait one more day to bottle it for a contest I wanted to enter today. I decided to use a picnic tap since I had not purchased a bottle filler adapter for my taps on...

Next up is a West Coast hazy IPA. Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe DDH. I’m from Dana Point, California hence the West Coast! Cheers!

I truly appreciate all of the answers/suggestions. My hops have been in the freezer for a while now. My water was probably a little off(my additives) and my recipe was not the IPA I was looking for. Only thing to do is make adjustments and get brewing again! Thanks everyone.

I use zero water and added some gypsum and calcium chloride. Probably not in the correct amounts.

I used Brewers Friend calculator and it came up with the IBU's. I am in Orange County at sea level so that is probably not an issue. The design was not thought out very well, my first design. I am wondering if I should sparge with about the same amount of water as I dough in with? Split the...

My predicted IBU's were 82.76. Mash temp of 152(it held at 151) for 60 minutes. Sparge temp of 168 for 20 minutes. This was my first beer that I designed but even my last beer(these were my first 2 all grain with my set up) came out sweet as well. Sparge and mash temps similar on first batch.

I have been home brewing for about 2 years. I used a BIAB set up until my last 2 batches when I went all grain. My BIAB beers were pretty damn good. My first 2 batches all grain I have a sweet finish...on an IPA. My set up is a 10 gallon kettle, 10 gallon cooler with false bottom and 5 gallon...
