I order brew by brew and generally use that as an opportunity to try different brands as research for I when I eventually start to mill my own grain and buy n bulk. Think I’ve settled on fawcett for Maris Otter, Simpson’s for golden promise and weyerman or crisp for regular pale. Still trying to...

I think a bit Amarillo will go well!

Yes it’s in the keg and will be ready in a week or two so can’t report back yet. I went 50 50 with citra and simcoe. 100g each. West coast style About 20 each later in boil. 30g each hop stand and 50g each fry hop.

Put our marker down again. Wales were poor but they were despatched professionally. It’s an open competition and whilst France and Brazil may have the edge we are there with a few others not far behind them. Wales were poor again though.

I was thinking of making a Dutch (white)wit bier based around one I had in Amsterdam recently. It tasted nothing like the perfumed Belgium Witt beers so I’m thinking it may have used a neutral yeast (similar I hear to The popular commercial Icelandic white ale) . However would this be down...

I’ve entered 3. First time for me, just looking for feedback really. is there any way to pay without a PayPal account. I had an account years back but haven’t used it in ages.

First goal was well taken by them. The second goal wasn’t a goal. That was a near perfect performance from england. They showed verve. Energy and great moment. Could have asked for more than that.

No lube but the dry drop fitting has a o ring. I think the leak is from the dry hop port around the prv. as it’s not air or water tight surely there will be oxygen sucked in if I cold crash?

I unboxed my Apollo snub nose for its first brew yesterday, and the red prv leaked when I tested it so I swapped it with the one from my junion King but that still wasn’t watertight ( was fine with FK) so it could be the Lid maybe or something I’ve done wrong. Anyway I had to use it as brew...

what about verdant yeast for it? its the only dry english yeast i used these days. ;liquid wise I was thinking Thames valley maybe?

I had a few pints in Kent on Saturday and it tasted great so think it travels ok. Just been trawling through this thread as I’m Gonna have a bash at this at some stage.

is there feedback on all entries? I’ve never entered a competion before but have always been meaning to, so it would be good to get some feedback. I’ve just kegged a red rye which should be peaking in January. edit. Yes there is.

There is one in north West Kent, that posts sometime If you have a search on here.

I’m going to build mine next week. Everything is ready to go. As I’ve got a spare inkbird I’ll use that to keep it at 8c which is my preferred carbing and serving temp. Mainly IPAs and Pales.

My only concern last time I repitched some saved slurry ( about 4 weeks old, kept in fridge in mason jar ) it was a dumper!

Good idea. So I just harvest a once. A pint on brew 1, use half straight away on brew 2 and the other half a couple of weeks later On brew 3. Maybe making a starter for the second one.

It’s been a whIle since I’ve considered reusing yeast after getting an infection Ire-using trub last time, but as I’m planning 3 consecutive brews using Wyeast ESB I thought I should revisit it I’ve only the ability to make 1 litre or maybe 1.25 litre starters so not sure I can over build...

i have high hopes! although a bit blind on Ph as used half Tecos irish spring water that doesnt state bicarbonates, and the battery was flat in my yellow ph meter that ive only used once ( must have left it on!) . Dark ale with half soft and half hard water ( im guessing) hopefully should...
