Posted: 18 Jun 2021 03:25 PM PDT I thought I might as well join the fun and post my own brewday log here in the forum. Today is an experimental bitter with the following recipe. I've never used Northdown before but Fullers use it and I very much enjoy a pint of Pride. I've also never added Chocolate malt to a bitter before but it's there in one of my favourite bitters of late: Darkstar Partridge so I'm putting the two together and doing this today: 85% Pale Malt 10% Munich Malt 3% Crystal 240 EBC 2% Low colour chocolate... foxbat's brewdays |
Posted: 18 Jun 2021 02:59 PM PDT Time to join the crowd and start one of these brew day thread things This will be the first brew of 2020. My parents are coming to stay with us at the end of February so I need to brew something that my dad will actually enjoy. He is a little bit stuck in his ways (it was only recently I converted him from Lager to drinking ales). That said, he has it in his head he doesn't like any grapefruit/citrus flavours in ales which pretty much restricts him to malty beers... Hopsteep Brewing |
Posted: 18 Jun 2021 02:42 PM PDT Thought i'd bring all my brewdays together in one thread. Had a day off today and because Foxbats Mainline beer seems to have been the most popular amongst my friends, alongside GH's Paterbeir I thought I would brew it again. Looking for somewhere between 17-20l for the FV and am still finding my way around my cygnet water boiler so using fag packet maths I used 300og Maris Otter 120g Caramalt 40g Chocolate Wheat 100g Crystal that I found at the bottom of the box and decided to get...

Posted: 18 Jun 2021 02:16 PM PDT Just settled down to watch the opening match of the 2020 (2021) tournament. I'm not a huge football fan but I do like a good international comp. Ideal accompaniment to a good beer |
Posted: 18 Jun 2021 02:12 PM PDT I've been sitting on my fridge fermentation project for several months. I have a fridge, heater, and inkbird ready to go, just need a wizard who can help with deactivating the thermostat. I have included a photo of the housing with all its wires laid bare. Which ones need cutting/rejoining etc. Would like the light to stay operational if possible |
Posted: 18 Jun 2021 02:10 PM PDT I can take no credit for this but would like to pass on the info... YouTube... Misty Ricardo...and follow! I mix bits from recipes to get where I want it and add as much heat as you like. Makes "British Indian restaurant" style curries. A bit of messing about to get set up but nothing you can't find at a decent supermarket or Asian store. This is tandoori chicken Madras.. |
Bass brewery when proper beer was made. Posted: 18 Jun 2021 02:08 PM PDT Some snaps of Bass brewery of a bygone era. Knock off time boys and men walking out not one uncovered head. Two pics of the coopers shop A view of Bass brewery showing the water tower. A bottle delivery, notice Bass had already taken over Worthington. 10,000 Hogs Heads. And finally the Burton Union system |
Posted: 18 Jun 2021 02:01 PM PDT Okay so I've made a Triple 10% New England IPA BIAB as my second brew ever. I know I know I went in at the deep end but go big or go home! I just thought I would keep a record of any change in colour and oxidation on here and if you're interested just follow along. Ask me any questions! The picture is an undercarbed (4days 30mins in the freezer test PET bottle) sample of the beer and my god if it stays like this for 2 weeks with a little more carbonation I'm a happy boy! |
Posted: 18 Jun 2021 01:52 PM PDT Hi all was talking to people in work today both around the 40 year old mark And told theres not a chance in hell they will take the vaccination Just wondering is there many more like this I have it and I'm happy I got it |
Posted: 18 Jun 2021 01:32 PM PDT Hi sorry for this it's probably something stupid but I have spent the night looking for 2 row place ale malt but cannot find it. Question is this is there much difference between pale ale malt and 2 row pale ale malt? Thanks in advance |
Posted: 18 Jun 2021 12:59 PM PDT Hello, Just want to thank the helpful folk of this forum who helped me with my first brew. It turned out surprisingly successful with the guidance I got. Cheers! |
Elderflower champagne in a corny? Posted: 18 Jun 2021 12:44 PM PDT I'm going to knock up some elderflower champagne this weekend and realised I have a spare 9L corny. My theory is that rather than burping loads of plastic bottles I can just do it in the corny and serve it in my keezer. I will ferment it for about 5 days in a FV and it will be a very low ABV. The big question is- will I just be pouring foam? I realise that balancing the length of line is important but has anyone else served it in a keezer/ kegarator? |

Secondary Fermentation: Demi-john vs Airlock Bottle (Advice Needed) Posted: 18 Jun 2021 12:39 PM PDT Hi Folks, I'm new to the forum & it's a delight to read like-minded heads here - look forward to some lively discourse. I've a question about secondary fermentation & would really appreciate any feedback you may be able to offer please. I have been successfully making my own tepache for over a year. Secondary fermentation has always yielded excellent results by straining/filtering liquid contents of my 5l Kleiner vessel into 1 litre airlock bottles & burping daily for a week + before...

WLP400 - Belgian Wit - Long ferment Posted: 18 Jun 2021 12:30 PM PDT Does anyone know if this yeast has a long ferment time or a K-97esque reputation for a stubborn krausen. Ive brewed 4 wits before, and they've been some of the best beers I've brewed but I've always just used MJ M21. This is being entered to the MM/Elusive competition so I thought I'd use a liquid yeast this time I brewed it 12 days ago, the yeast shot off like a rocket and was showing signs of activity within 5 hours of pitching. I started at 20C, bumped up to 22C after 3 days and to 23C... WLP400 - Belgian Wit - Long ferment |
Posted: 18 Jun 2021 11:31 AM PDT I will jump on the band wagon and do one big thread for all my brews. Today's brew was a bohemian Pilsner using the recipe from Greg Hughes' book page 94. I don't normally drink lagers but this will make a nice summer brew that I can pull out at bbq's. I decided to do have a brew (11.5l) and is my first go at a proper lager. I won't post the recipe on here because it's in the book, I just handed everything but then decided to add an extra 500g of the malt because it was going spare... Leon103's brew days |
