Captain 3 Droids Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) 32 minutes ago, Grant Patterson said: Hello and thanks for the reply. Here are some screen shots of my app. Yes it has been sitting between 17-18 degrees for awhile now. I still have to add the hop extract. From reading a few posts I will add it to brew droid and then leave it for another day before Kegging. Well it certainly appears that fermentation is still happening due to temp rise and cooling. The progress from BrewStarted to the 17C temp change is normal so a bit of patience is now required. You could add the hops now, I assume you will be using a hop bag or similar for pellets?

Grant Patterson Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 It will be the hop extract that came with the brew print. So I will give it a couple more days and see what happens. Thanks for you help. Appreciate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often have the idea that as soon as you post "is this supposed to take this long?" it ticks over the next night. Are you going to keg of bottle?

Grant Patterson Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Yes I wish. Lol. This is my first ever brew with beerdroid. I have moved from grain brewing from scratch to this. I don’t have the time to be able to brew like I used to. I will be kegging my beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain 3 Droids Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) An enjoyable tasty drop for a lazy Friday afternoon. Only 2 and a bit weeks but can not criticise the maturity timing. Edited January 15, 2021 by Captain 3 Droids 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Courtney Posted January 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 6 weeks in and just delicious...and I have drunk some very good beers tonight. I will go as far as to say this should be the beer that comes with a Brewart Droif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The American Pale Ale is not necessarily the best to start with as it generally overflows. Not great for your first brew. I wonder if it is to satisfy the American market?

Could be or it is a simple recipe that does give a craft beer tatste to it, agree with the Lawnmower call too but I guess that fro my observations, most people who are buying a droid are ale drinkers, I guess you have to play to the market 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Courtney Posted May 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 9 weeks in, drowing my "Alcoholic shaming" work stuff, such a very, very nice beer.

Dustin Frothman Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 Picked up some Czech Saaz today and will dry hop tomorrow-ish using a hop ball. How long does this brew need in secondary to be at its best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain 3 Droids Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 (edited) In a way that’s a matter of opinion, I really enjoyed it at 4 weeks. However I use ss kegs and co2 gas therefore perhaps 6 weeks in the bottle and 6 to 8 weeks in the brewflo kegs?

Rob Courtney Posted June 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 8 to 10 weeks from a keg. Drinks well enough early but blosoms after 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin Frothman Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 Perfect, thanks guys. 👍 I know it’s subjective but as this is only lager #2 for me I was keen for some guidance. I dropped the hops in this morning. The brew finished primary fermentation just after midnight last night so that was only 7 days. I was expecting 9 to 10 so I’ll have to let it sit at kegging temperature for a couple of days whilst the hops infuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustin Frothman Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 If it’s only half as good as the Revolution Dark Lager I’ll be very impressed. I’m sure it’ll be just as good if not better. The Czech Saaz hop pellets smelled great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Courtney Posted July 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) 6 and a bit weeks in. Have been really looking forward to having a beer all week and to be honest, could drink this print all week long, either with Hallertau as a Bavarian lager or Saaz as Bohemian, just delicious.
