I popped in yesterday and they had a few Belgians, I came away with a Bottle of Mc Chouffe which is a belgian brown ale. I also got a Mango and Lime Lasse Gose and a Peach IPA. All of which were very nice.

Starting the evening with a wee drop of my Atomic Session IPA - I messed around with it shortened the mash & brew length, swapped the yeast for Hornindal and added some MO to balance it out a bit more as BU:GU looked a bit off for my taste. Its an easy drinking fruity session pint....

The purpose of the whirlpool is to let the trub settle out of the wort so it doesn't end up in your Fermenter. If you're using something like a Grainfather with a side port then a good Whirlpool will make a neat little pile of Trub in the middle of the kettle and keep it out of your pump, siphon...

Brew kit all clean and stowed away till Friday....trying my West Coast Saison while I get the roast on. Its all saison and no west coast but its dry and peppery so its still a winner.

Nothing terribly scientific, it was 1.47 when I keyed it in. I prefer it less in your face than that so I played around the Grainfather APP until it was around 0.9 which is what I tend to like.
