    I love brewing with Lutra Kveik. It's an absolute fermentation beast.

      What styles do you use it for?

      @@CascadesHomebrew Usually for pseudo lagers. Omega Yeast has a decent recipe for a Helles pseudo lager that I've brewed a few times, and Dr. Hans Brewery here on TH-cam has a couple videos for recipes using Lutra that have all turned out very well when I brewed them.

    Maybe you should have bumped up the ph on the Lutra-Beer again with a bit of baking soda. Kveik has a higher PH drop, than a lager yeast, so this might have helfend ‚against‘ the citrus charachter. Thanks for the great Video 👍

      It would have been valuable to compare the pH. I did not, partially because the probe on my pH meter needs to be replaced again. When I checked the pH in my US-05 vs Voss vs Lutra video, all 3 beers were very close in pH.

    I’ve had a rough time truly enjoying Lutra beers, so I totally understand the flavor and aroma notes you stated. It almost gives me a lemony flavor that definitely isn’t “clean” like some folks say. I’m wondering if’s like the cilantro thing where it just depends on the person, because everyone I’ve shared these beers with liked them pretty well and didn’t detect the aroma and flavor I don’t like. Great job as always Brent!

      Glad you enjoyed the video. Each time I have used Lutra, there was a "twang" that settled down after 2 or 3 weeks of packaging. From then, it has a citrus character that lingers at a lower level. I suspect the judges identified some of the Lutra character as coming from hop additions. Maybe soon I will give Lutra a try in a hoppy style like a Pale Ale.

    Helles is such a touchy style. My white wale beer. Searching for the “german ‘it’ taste”

      Good luck! Yeah, it seems to be a style that requires just a touch of flavor/character, but also has very little to cover up any flaws.

    Could you say Lutra any more times during the introduction?

    I've used Lutra in lieu of Chico before in a blonde, and everyone who tried it said it was kind of a perfect example of what a blonde ale should be. It's also worked great in a cream ale before, which makes sense since like lutra, those are also "lager-ish, but not"

      This is where I am leaning as a best fit for Lutra, as a very neutral ale strain when you are not looking for yeast character. Since Kveik strains are so flexible with temperatures, I can turn around a beer in a few weeks even if my fermentation chamber is tied up.
