LM600 I have looked at your recipes for the lager and they seem straightforward. However you do not mention sugar for the second ferment. I assume as in all ales a second fermenent is needed. Can you throw some light on this one please :cheers:

Mumbler As I have never made this stuff before, can you give me more info on the German hops used in Lagers. Perhaps offer me your recipe too. I really do need help here. Aleman recipe has gone down in my brain to try, but any other suggestions would be of great help. I REALLY don't know what I...

Thanks for the imput guys. I am not after lager with a pub taste, as I have already said I don't like Lager. I thought I would make some for the son-in-law who has been a great help to me and the ole' trout. It just that I know he drinks Fosters and Calesburgh and I wanted to make something...

Sorry Aleman if I have offended your taste buds, that is not my intention. I was just expressing MY opinion of Lager. To me American beer is of the same ilk. Having spent some considerable time in America, plus working and drinking on the American Bases here. I could not get the taste for it. I...

Thanks Rob Could you give me info, or point me in the right direction to get the information I need for making the stuff. I am not a lager drinker myself, for my part it's all P**s 'n' wind, but the son-in-law is good to me and the ole' trout so I suppose I should make an effort. But as I have...

YES PLEASE I would like the recipe, you could PM or on here I don't mind. :cheers:

Greetings fellow Drinkers I am new to all this...

Having read this post, Have I got it right, that spray malt will not increase the alcohol just the colour and flavour. Does this mean the alcohol content is reduced if you use part spray malt and part sugar as opposed to all sugar ? Sorry if this sounds a bit of a silly question, but when you...

And now for my first question. As I said in my previous post, I am a novice brewer. ( very novice) I have just syphoned off my first brew of 'Woodford's Wherry'. So now it is settling. I have just ordered a Muntons Stout. On reading the reviews on it. One guy says he made it with brewers sugar...

Thanks guys I am sure you will get fedup with me asking what might seem stupid questions, but ya gorra learn ain't ya. Narrow boats are not so bad, it when the idiots are on a little four berth putt-putt and think they are sailing the Queen Mary, even more so when they come into the local shop...

How do you calculate the ABV in a beer or prospective ABV when brewing ? On my tin it says that if the reading is 1.10 it will be 4.5. But how do arrive at this. Please don't blind me with science, my ole brain ain't what it used to be. ( not that I was any good at maths in the first place...

I am new to brewing and only doing kits at the moment. But I would like to get into the real mans way of brewing, so there are a couple of questions after reading this posting. Firstly, I want to make a good tasting bitter of medium/stronger strenght. What variety of hops should I go for...

Greetings all. I am new to the world of home brew, so I don't know what I doing. My aim is to brew a good pint to enjoy on a quite summer evening whilst letting the world and it's troubles go by. I can't do much else, being a pensioner money does not allow for greater things in life. But I am...
