I have been cleaning my Grainfather both prior to brewing and after. Have been considering if I need to go through the full cleaning process prior to brewing as ultimately I will be boiling the wort. If not, this would save considerable time cleaning with the Grainfather Performance cleaner...

Brut IPA, yes please !

First time baking bread, pretty happy with the results. Will find out tomorrow for breakfast what it is like to eat.

My thoughts go out to you. We lost one of our dogs late in 2018 so know how you must be feeling. In time only the great times will be remembered.

Hi David That particular pint was a Cheriton Porter from a brewery called Flower Pots. Quite pleasant with a hint of coffee. My favourite on the night was a strong bitter called Conqueror by Windsor & Eton. Described as a black IPA, malty and hoppy with berry notes. Very strong hop aroma...
