Thank you sir ! I'm going to use your Yeast on my porter :)
And start my ferment schedule:
week 1 - 65F 2/degree rise temp controller)
Week 2 - 68F
Week 3 - drop to 65 or low 30s or leave at 68F?
Week 4- see week 3
Week 5 - cold crash 34F
Week 6 - transfer to Keg and cold crash with Gelatin
I know 2 cold crashes. But I'm a cold crashing mofo!
***Edit: its dark beer so just one cold crash , now I feel weak..lol
It worked like a champ on my Amber!

Let the beer make it's own schedule. That's a fairly low gravity beer and shouldn't take that long. I'd set it at 63-65 and leave it there until you;re almost at FG. Maybe 5 days, maybe 10....take gravity readings. Raise to 70-72 for 2-3 days, then crash to 33 for 2-3 days.

This ^^. 090 is a good strain for APA and AIPA but 1450 kills it for brown, porter and stout. American amber, too.

It's great in Black IPA too!

I was going to make another Amber with it..I was in a bad place...lol trying to decide.. Amber....Porter.. Amber..Porter.... but ..I went to the dark side
and decided on the Porter
As I figured it's cold and dark beers take a while to smooth out....
Next time though I will make a Amber with it..
I bet my Amber Ale recipe I posted would be awesome on Denny's!
Hmmm.....

happy 2016 everyone! :)
So trying to decide on hops to use for tomorrow's brew - Porter
Also I usually use Muesli bags to contain hop additions 1 bag per addition - (I use pump and plate chiller)
Does the bags lower my utilization, if so do you add a percentage to compensate?
example Porter BUGU ratio target is .66 so If im using bags then maybe add 10% to that?
then the .66 ratio would be more like .72 ratio????

yeast: Dennys favorite 1450 - Yummy for my tummy..LOL
Hops (My current on hand inventory: East Kent Goldings, Williamette)
**Cascade: I dont have currently, Can go to brew store and purchase
Amount
0.5 oz Magnum Pellet Boil 60 min
1 oz **Cascade Pellet Flavor 15 mins
1 oz Willamette Aroma 5 mins
last question? Would I lower the flavor and aroma addition amounts and up the bittering instead since this is a porter? I used 1oz additions because i kinda like to use my inventory rather than store open packages of pellets; and have them go stale.... I dont have a vacum sealer if your wondering
