Thanks for your valuable input.

Thanks. I was hoping you'd say that, although I do have some more belgian yeast here, I planned on keeping that for the next lot.

Cheers. Its been a week in the fermenter and SG is down to 1.008 which is not a mile off 1.010 as the recipe states. It looks like is actually settled at that, as it's not moved much over the last few days. It's expected as the OG was a little down on spec too at 1.055 vs 1.060. So...

Just brewed this a few days ago. Yeah the 500g took more than a few jug fulls to melt. Hop spider seemed a bit useless in retaining the hops, so I think the idea of adding the sugar to it is a great idea. Currently bubbling away rapidly in the fermenter. @Mash Monster how long did you leave it...

The Malt Miller's Leffe Blond Clone. I suppose it was Sunday I started, but left to cool in the fermenter until yesterday. Woke up this morning to a familiar "gloop gloop" from the air lock. This evening its producing so much Co2, that the airlock isn't locking anymore. Reckon its the candi...

My Ioniq6 is on 3 years 0% PCP. Gauranteed minimum future value. I'll ride out the EV storm until they decide whats going to win. Its just VHS vs Betamax all over again. As i said earlier, I'm saving more than £50 a month on road tax, and my " fuel costs" are less than 25% of what they were. For...

Bought it from TMM. New keg to go with it , so next reasonably sunny day, I'll be on this.

Is possible, but the electrical drag created will render it useless. Works well in an ICE car, where it does create the same drag, except you use fuel to overcome the load. In an electric car you would generate less electricity than it takes to compensate for the extra load. Similar to your AC...

I love my Ioniq6. Saving me a fortune as I only charge at home. Sometimes its free, as there is so much excess electricity, I get paid to consume it.

How did it go? My Neck oil turned out great, after letting it age for about 8 weeks in a cold room. Now looking for ideas, and I reckon this might hit the spot.

Oil for the neck. Turned out pretty good. 6 weeks of corny conditioning might have helped.

So I've tried this about 6 weeks ago, and it didnt sit right. Thought I would have another tr of it after " dryish January" and its pleasently surprising. Very hoppy, as neck oil is, i suppose. But its definitely conditioned well. Quite pleased with myself to be honest and very grateful for...

This was a learning experience. Something went wrong somewhere, but I can't put my finger on it. It was very chemical tasting and undrinkable. Next be was much better, still not 100%, but definitely drinkable.

So dry hop has added some expected clouds, but it tastes and smells great. In the corny now for conditioning under Co2. Fingers crossed

Brewed this the other week, and its now fermented out, pretty much bang on where I expected it to be. Yeild was a little down, but I think this isdue to my inexperience of the BrewZilla 4 temperature and mash levels. First time using the protoflac too, and was amazed at the slightly alien...
