To minimise the carbon did you try adjusting out those washers by the valves?
If you have you tried, you'll either need to find a way to get more oxygen or less gas in your mix.
My last Pre Prohibition CA was single hopped with Amarillo. Tasted superb, and not just IMO. I'd go with 100% amarillo and see what you think
Yeah that's what I was thinking, maybe a just a touch of columbus. But then again, I do like the idea of straight amarillo, especially since I don't think I've ever used it as a single or dominant hop in a beer.
If the whole ring is out maybe the valve is stuck?
I reckon Amarillo as well! Yum!! Maybe some columbus in there??
Yeah - just a single hop for the brew - let those Malts come in and dominate with a bitter mildly citrussy finish.
Oh well, if no one else replies - amarillo it is!
If you want more Citrus in there - I'd chuck in equal amouns of Pacifica in with the Motueka additions: There is NO WAY too much hops in that recipe...
I'm brewing at the moment, a very similar recipe and I have 130g in the kettle, with 100g in t...

Brew Day
Lots of new parts equals lots of hiccups I've found. This was the third beer I've done with this system, about to brew the 5th this weekend.
This was a Robust Porter that's currently conditioning on 2kg of raspberries. There's a few pics that I missed on the Porter brew but took the photos again on the next day hence a few pics of the wort being quite light.
I'll shut up now and get on with it.

Nick T said… - I've been meaning to dredge through the forum posts and make a list of the T,T,F,F LA's that are used, but haven't quite got to it yet. Will have a look at it next week or two if that is any help.

- Hi Glen, thanks for posting those recipes from the awards, most of them are ones I was eying up last night in BCS for future brews, I was amazed! Well done on the gold. I have a bit of a newbie question (hence not posting on that thread) - the amber ale, you use 2 pkgs of yeast, but for the brown ale only one, but grain totals are about the same - why the difference in yeast quantities? (I am keen on doing an amber as I really like the TH RNA, will be a nice follow up to Yakima Monster - once I figure out the Bohemian Pilsner for my wife, and then there is the stout and a TT Landlord... oh the list goes on, I see why you have done so many AG brews in a year!!)

- Hey how did your helles munich turn out that you brewed in April? Thinking of doing something similar. What sort of flavor does the melanoidin impart?

- If you have a Perlick Tap, unscrew the nozel. Then you need to get some plastic (I use some ice vream container plastic) and cut a disc that has an interfearance fit (slightly bigger than the end of the thread of the nozel) so that it will seal between the faucet and the nozel. Once you cut it to fit (took me a few hours) puncture it with half a dozen holes with a drawing pin.
Then fit it, and make a seal. Make sure have have less than 1 vol of CO2 in the beer, and serve at 1 - 2 bar. It squirts out pretty hard - so beware. Also, dont chill the beer below 14 degrees, otherwise it;ll suck up the CO2 and you'll never serve it through that nozel.
Good luck holmes.
