    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

    To update - very happy with the result, 2ml/L of Biofine did wonders. Crystal clear after 12g/l dry hop.

    Interesting! Not something I’ve looked at in detail before. pH would be somewhere in the 4s I imagine. Second dry hop is today so I’ll report back in a few weeks 🙂

    Yep, I think I’m in denial, and dropping the dry hop rate is probably the answer. Maybe combined with cryo/lupomax hops or extract products to reduce how much vegetal matter goes in.

    This one has 14g/L total dry hop so it is pretty high.

    Thanks. After 10+ years with a cobbled together setup we did a big upgrade and have a much nicer kit now.

    Yeah I’m also filtering, but it doesn’t touch hop haze

    Good call - I’m using up different strains in this one, m44 and us05 so fingers crossed. Us05 is my go to

    Awesome, will see how we go! I struggle to classify voodoo, but essentially a crystal substitute here - a bit of body/complexity/colour

    Yeah I think that’s our best bet. Recipe here - https://share.brewfather.app/EOJKRcXCj4dZrH

    Brewing a clear west coast IPA

    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.
