How big is the vessel you are mashing in? Can it fit full water volume?

Only Kriek Boon in my Waitrose.

Given the general lack of available beers of that type - yes it’s good for the money. I think it’s top fermented, has a flavour other than malt, a bit boozy.

Joining the rainy afternoon. None of my bock is in the fridge so have a Leute Bok.

Do you mean you have nothing else? You may have to brew based on a guessed AA and adjust bitterness during the fermentation using a hop tea?

Wow thanks @dave_77 and well done @RichardM and @pilgrimhudd !

Wadworth also moved to a modern facility on a new site last year. Looks like a similar move. https://www.wadworth.co.uk/news-offers/folly-road-brewhouse-1 First half of the video is quite dull, it gets more entertaining when the Germans are introduced.

Could still stick a sprig of Rosemary in that 😂

Utopian Festbier. Bit of a cheat using uk grown Hersbrucker. Too sweet for me, I may be drinking too warm again.

Curry night. I was in the co-op earlier which is generally one of the most disappointing beer shops. This was on sale for 80p. Triple hop as in added to 3 stages of the boil, but not nearly enough. Flavour of green apple. It is described as a golden ale which it isn’t…so true to form for the shop.

Load some barbell weights on top, or depending on the strength of its support glove up and press by hand.

Not sure I like those notes! Is that from the barrel aging?

I don’t think the top plate will improve efficiency but I would squeeze. Equally you could just move the basket to rest over a bucket and gravity drain until halfway through the boil. Then you can measure quantity and gravity of your extra runoff and add to the boil. You can find out then if you...

I haven’t made it yet but it’s on the list and I bought a lot of Jester and Olicana cheaply from cml. I haven’t found a huge number of recipes for the new British hops but the Charles Faram hop brochure is quite a handy reference.

You should have a look at @Hazelwood Brewery Pirate Pale recipe in the documents section.

Going to need bigger glasses!

Utopian Vienna.

Yes presumably depending on if the yeast strain does that trick. Seems like a lot of coriander but when I used 20g it had no flavour at all, I also didn’t crush as it seemed it would be messy.

Do you do anything about co2 in the secondary? I haven’t chased clarity until now and not sure what to expect based on the beer out of the fermenter.
