What did your water treatment consist of?
how was the hop profile? Considering something similar but I’ll probably bitter with a different hop and use the Saaz in the later editions. Thanks!
Thanks for the recipe. Finished brew day yesterday and OG was slightly lower at 1.0484 but happy overall with how the brew day went.
I substituted saaz as well.
I use wyeast 2124 with a 2 liter starter and it is bubbling right along. :cool:
I’ll follow up with the results.
Nice! Have you tried Golden Road’s Mango Cart? I’ve been looking for something similar and couldn’t find anything so I made my own recipe. It tastes good but for both batches it has been darker than I would have liked so I think next time I’ll get rid of the crystal 10L.
Have you put in both...

I know...
Whoa! Great questions!
1. Not sure what a hop spider is so I guess no.
2. I bought them at the brew store 2 days before I brewed so I'm not sure how old they were. I keep them in the freezer usuallly.
3. Great question, I have no idea what my ph is and don't have a ph meter.
4. There is...
Thanks friends for the responses. My targeted IBU is 108 and I'll definitely make sure I purge right away. Also, I transferred to my glass carboy because the active fermentation stopped (or seemed to). I mostly racked to a secondary because I need my primary bucket for the next batch and to dry...
I brewed two recent batches of a clone of a Green Flash Double IPA and they both came out sweet! I need some help to determine what the heck I am doing wrong.
