My first Lemmy post!
I’m very keen to see this community grow. I’m traditionally a reader not a poster but that is not what we need now!
I’m brewing a west coast ipa this weekend. Dank, resiny goodness, and about 6.5%.
I make good ipa, but it’s always hazy - due to the high rate of dry hopping (not other reasons - I can brew crystal beers of other styles).
For this one I’m going to try an extended cold crash at 2 deg C, followed by biofine at the upper end of the recommended dosage. 2 dry hop additions of 7g/l each, on day 1 and day 6. Hop pellets are added through a hop dropper, loose. Whirfloc in the boil too, but don’t think it’ll help with hop haze.
Any other ideas? We’ve tried a few different fining agents with limited success.
Yep I’m really happy with it. My efficiency was a bit low so it came in at 5.5%, that’s all I’ll tweak next time
