If by bad planning you mean lack of space. You should put the co2 tank outside the keezer.

There is enough space but not a drop of beer to be seen. I find it hard to find the time to brew in the summer. There is a batch in the carboy but still a week from the keg.

Ah! Now I understand. Everything else looks spot on in that case. Except for the lack of kegs that is...

I bottled my limberlost clone about two weeks ago. I can't remember if I posted on here about it but I built up a culture from about 5 cans and pitched it into a small 1 gallon batch and let it rid out for about 3 months. The brett flavour is there but it only got down to 1.022 and is a little thin. I'm going to try it one more time with the pure culture, maybe build it up a bit more and ferment warmer and see if that helps.

The story about the original is here: https://www.sawdustcitybrewing.com/limberlost/

I've been falling behind on my "brew at least once a month" target and my pipeline has been hurting because of it so last night I brewed two 10 Gal batches:

  • Harvest IPA (wet Cascade)
  • NEPA using London Ale III and lots of flaked corn & oats.

Up next will be a Flanders Red (I've been putting this one off for way too long) or possibly a Nelson Wheat black IPA.
Give a man a beer and he'll waste an hour, teach him how to brew beer and he'll waste a lifetime.

I went and picked up 6 lbs of cortland apples from everett orchard last weekend and today I brewed a recipe I saw in BYO called 'Sour Apple' that uses wyeast 3191 berliner weisse blend. I'm planning to age it 3-6 months.

What did you use for your sour starter?
