ken - has that tile behind the taps always been painted?  I don't remember that from before.  or maybe they are just different colored tiles?

At some point in my brewing I was having the hardest time getting pale beers clear. Not sure if it's better pH control or what but here is a helles I have on tap right now... looks filtered.

I would hurt that beer right now .. looks great.

Looks good to me! Nice work.

My latest: a clone of Great Lakes' Nosferatu Imperial Red/Stock Ale.  A tad light on color, but the taste is outstanding and (IMHO) an improvement over the commerical version.

Care to share that recipe bklmt2000? Looks great!

I used a blend of crystal-40, crystal-80, and special roast.  The slightly-lighter color is probably due to me using Wyermann Pils as the base malt.  Prior versions used Briess Pale Ale, which were also good, but turned out a tad darker/more in line w/ Nosferatu color-wise.

I'll dig it up out of Beersmith and post in the Recipe section. 

 

And thanks to all for the kind feedback, I appreciate it.

my first beer with 833 is clearing and carbing right now.  it seems like a really nice yeast, have you used it many times?

I have used a few times in the past... mainly with an Octoberfest that had a bit of infection... so this the first really clean time I have used it.

It is good.

I have read a lot of folks really like it as their house yeast.

 

I will make the same AmericanLager/Pilsner recipe with this yeast soon.

So I can compare side by side the differences between 2124 and 833.... but then I have 2206 on hand and will spin that up soon to, which also has a lot of followers.
