    Do commercial breweries buy in yeast?

    Sounds great ! 👍 What are you brewing ? I love Hook Norton beers, their Flagship IPA got me started trying out Admiral in similar recipes. I did a quick stop at the brewery when I was working nearby, it really is an amazing building - those Victorians didn't do things by halves !

    Hi, new member and allotment question

    The best country wines I've made have been mixtures ; Blackberry (80%) and Elderberry (20%) Apples mixed (60%) and Pears (40%) Elderflower is easily found all over the place and makes a fantastic wine fermented dry or sparkling. Same as all brewing, getting basics right with sanitising...

    Holed up in our holiday hide away in the far south of Cornwall enjoying the first taste of this Hallertau Blanc steam Pilsener kegged a week ago, after a long drive. Looking forward to some swimming, fishing, reading, eating and drinking -weather looking promising 🤞

    the 1st tranche of stupid Questions on wine by FRISP begins

    I've used this Kedem 100% white grape juice from sainsburys as an addition to elderflower wines. No colours or flavouring, it does list Potassium Metabisulphate but I've never had a problem with it fermenting out...

    Outside doing a few jobs ; cleaning out the gutters, hacking back undergrowth then forced in by the rain so sitting down with this Crisp IPA - nice zesty bitterness. Nugget Cali Common I kegged a couple of weeks ago, taken a while to start clearing but lovely balance of biscuity malt and...

    Pickled eggs...

    Pickling is quite trendy now, could be the next in thing with the hipsters ! Used to get pickled onions on the bar too, can't beat an old fashioned ploughman's with a pint of bitter.

    Now having a glass of my Belgian single, Tettnang and Styrian Goldings, while I wait to see what beer my daughter will bring back from the supermarket - I have faith !

    I like a richer maltier ale now and again, this hits the spot - slightly treacley and moreish.

    Olicana pale ale still going down a treat. A lovely summer ale, this keg isn't going to last long. Got a Hallertau Blanc Pilsener ready to put in a mini keg this weekend, then stick it in the fridge till we go on holiday in a week.

    Cashless pub.

    I always keep a bag of coins handy to pay for parking, far easier than faffing about on my phone with apps especially when there's no WiFi ( e.g on holiday in furthest depths of the west country ). Also if you want to tip you can be sure the right person is getting it.

    White wine / Prosecco coming out of keg as foam?

    This is my experience also, I've kegged Elderflower wine both sugar primed and carbonated with co2 and natural secondary fermentation made for a much better drink. I also found co2 gave a fizz that quickly dissipated, if you sugar prime in a keg you also have no worries about bottle bombs.

    Busy day today, brewing a Steam Pilsener with Tettnang and Hallertau Blanc and kegged this Olicana pale ale so a little taster was in order. Some sweet caramel from the Plumage Archer with grapefruitey bitterness and aroma from the Olicana.
