That's good to hear! Planning to bottle a dubbel after crash cooling for a
week or two which I've never done before and was wondering about that very
thing.

Subject: thanks, and "what is it?"
First thanks to those who answered my question about bottle-conditioning a
tripel. I used about 20% of a smack pack of Wyeast 3787, and built up the
rest for another brew, which leads me to "what is it?" The resulting
bottle-conditioned tripel, incidentally, is very good and is nicely
carbonated.
Today's brew was an attempt to a sorta-kinda Karmeliet. Grain bill was 10lb
pils, 1.5lb flaked wheat, 1.5lb white wheat, 1.5lb flaked oats, and 1lb cane
sugar; 1lb rice hulls for filtering; 1 oz sterling, 1 oz saaz, coriander and
orange peel. 1 1/2 hr mash at 148-150, 1 hr mash out at 172, 1 1/2 hr boil,
chill to 80F. Stuck run-off! I managed to salvage things with siphon and
sieve, and when cleaning the pot noticed a stringy rubbery substance clogging
the run-off tube. I have had this once before but can't recall the recipe.
What is it?
TIA.
Keith
