That will work, or, you could just throw them in loose like I do, if you have temp control just lower the temp after 3 days to something like 5 degrees and all the hops will sink, maybe even leave in a shed overnight you can’t control temp, watch it doesn’t freeze mind as it’s heading into that...

I’ve just ordered a kidney stone from Amazon

If you have to switch tv channels with your feet as you have a homebrew in each hand, that’s when I first had a look in the mirror

No I will do it now, I just need to nip into the shed first to “check” the FV temp

Strange steve I think swmbo has hacked your account

Life’s too short mate, if your enjoying it and it’s not having too much of a detrimental effect then carry on I say But if your determined to have beer free days just do it, I only need to tell swmbo once that I’m planning to not drink mon-thur and that’s it set in stone!

I used to worry about this stuff, now I don’t even use an airlock but simply crack the lid, my last brew I waited 4 days after the Krausen had disappeared, took a reading that was low enough to satisfy me and cold crashed for two days before bottling, I promise myself I will take two readings at...

I only drink on nights ending in y No idea why my gut is getting bigger though

Remember the external pir light for staggering back to the house when it’s dark in the winter

Sorry can’t help as it’s above me But I’m always put to shame when someone details 29.4 grams of hops compared to my measurements, a handful here and 80 or so grams there

I’ve mentioned this before but anyone in Scotland near Alloa can pick up a 25kg sack of Crisp Maltings Ale malt for £20 and I believe they have increased the range available

They change regularly! Definitely some of the Festival range, the Golden Stag or the New Zealand Pilsner were great, some of the Beerworks kits and always the premium Young’s maybe Amber ale or so? Single can kits I wouldn’t go past Brewferm, they realistically only make 9-12 litres but are...

You will get there mate, good hobby

Good luck mate but could be some funky taste with 32-34 degrees

My work hasn’t paid anyone off yet, very very keen to keep reminding us of the loss of tourist income whilst never mentioning the absolute fleecing of people they have been doing for years upon years.

100% get it bottled, I left a beer in the FV for 12 weeks, was a cracking beer (although I kept it at 5 degrees) so temp fluctuations may be taken into account but under no circumstances bin a beer unless it tastes foul even from the FV

Yeah I bought them when everyone was talking about them but now I’m thinking do I want Lemon or Coconut in this beer? I might do a brew later with that hop only to really get a true taste of them, cheers

Ok cheers guys

A dry hop yes, I’m not sure about Sabro or Chinook
