If we didn’t spill any beer while making it how else would we learn to not try that again.

I used DME and I had a 1 hour brew day because of it. I really hate LME it’s so messy.

I use a tilt and I had very little headspace. I think it got lodged in the small space as the pressure was building up pre-blowoff. Then it would throw and off reading.

I was surprised it was this crazy of a fermentation. The Imperial Yeast has been pretty awesome.

When was the lice time any of us had an American Ice Lager? I think it is a good move. I am surprised it’s not just called East Coast IPA.

Just wait! I have been using the https://brewfather.app for my software on my last couple of brews. I am working on a project where my logging software http://fermentrack.com starts talking to the brewfather app. It will then log my beer data right in my brew log automatically. Brewfather currently supports Tilt. But I will also be able to add my fermentation data too. It’s getting really powerful.

Packaging day is here!

So Here is how my fermentation went:

I finished at 1.004. I cold crashed the low temp always drops a couple points on the Tilt so I finished at 1.006. or 6.7%

I then bottled a few so I can have some for the competition. They will bottle condition. I used bottle drops.

Next I moved to the keg:

After that I am force carbing it at 40 for 24 hours then I will drop it to serving temp.

As a reminder here is the recipe:
