Hi all,
This is about my 15th brew, so not a novice.
A recent stout (coopers irish stout from premium range) is showing way too much froth no matter how I pour it.
My traditional beer mix is to add an additional 500g of dex, and 1KG of dry or liquid malt to boost gravity, alcohol and general consistency.
Bulk primed with 175g of dex.
Any ideas as to why this may have occured out of the blue? (this is my first stout, and the first time I have used liquid instead of dry malt)
There's nothing much I can do about the beer itself, but are there any tips for reducing the amount of foam when pouring?
Take care, Craig
Too much froth
Method of pouring springs to mind. How do you pour your beer?
Secondly, how clean are your glasses. Sometimes little bits of stuff cling to the sides, and when the beer is poured, they form points for the CO2 bubbles to form.
Aside from that, my stout seems to come out like ice-cream when I pour into my jug, so I just wait for it to settle out. Sometimes that's all you can do.
