Thanks! It's a little more bitter than I was expecting, and smokey/roasty than coffee/cocoa. Maybe from the chocolate malt as opposed to black malt? I can't tell if the honey malt is detectable or notThat looks delicious.

Yeah not that I can speak to the other two but Columbus I've brewed with once and it was quite dank not my favourite but maybe one for use in a more malt forward style.And a mug of golden ale to follow! Good, but not as good as last time. Last time the hops were azacca, Cascade, and citra; this time was Columbus, azacca, and comet

That's funny, I was expecting the comet to be danky not the Columbus. I think I wanted more citrus flavor than this. I'm still learning how to get the hop flavors I want with the no chill methodYeah not that I can speak to the other two but Columbus I've brewed with once and it was quite dank not my favourite but maybe one for use in a more malt forward style.
Brew dudes on a side note had a yummy looking NEIPA with Comet and another hop this week
I find Whirlpooling helps me.That's funny, I was expecting the comet to be danky not the Columbus. I think I wanted more citrus flavor than this. I'm still learning how to get the hop flavors I want with the no chill method
I do a 10-20 minute hop stand after flameout, but I'm racking to the ferm/serving vessel before chilling overnight so the hops can't transfer over with the wortI find Whirlpooling helps me.
I just throw em in once boil is done let them isomerise and flavour in there and sink down to the bottom until tomorrow.
Then just rack off the top.

That’s pretty interesting. A worthy topic unto itself. The idea of building the foam and releasing some of the excess gas seems like a win win. Too many bubbles always gives me the impression of being “full” long before I’m ready to quit partaking. I now have tomorrow’s project all set.From Tasting Beer 2nd edition.
