Now a St Peter's Cream Stout. Still too early (2 weeks in bottle), but what the heck.

Last of the Beerworks Golden Rocket in front of the rugby. Shame - it's drinking really well now...

I just did these too. I roasted with garlic powder, smoked paprika, chicken seasoning and dried oregano. Turned out brilliantly! No pics sadly...I skipped lunch so sunk straight in. Will definitely do these again! Thanks for the tip 👍

Bacon wheat crunchies are a recent rediscovery in our house. I'm gonna have to try those wings, too. I usually suffer the 'god I shouldn't have troughed all them' guilt when I do mine. This is like a get out of jail free card! Awesome.

I feel your pain Andy, and had similar technical issues today. First I couldn't get the packaging tape off the Love Brewing box and ended up trying to stretch and snap it, hurting my hand. Then, being a left hander, I couldn't find the comfy pair of scissors to cut open the two bags of...

We should borrow it to sort out this mattress debacle.

The term Chinese Whispers was coined because Chinese folks can't whisper in Chinese and be understood. They need to vocalise the intonations in their speech in order for the intended meaning to be communicated (rising, decending, high-flat, low-flat, decending-then-rising). I discovered this...

Tea has more caffeine in it than coffee. But pound for pound, it takes more coffee beans to make a coffee, than tea leaves to make a tea. Which is why you get a bigger caffeine kick from coffee than you do from tea, despite it being less potent.

23ltrs Beerworks Founders Double American IPA. Total: 2362 ltrs

Got another on the go today: Beerworks Founders Double IPA. This one's a beast. 6kg of malt, 180g hops. OG of 1076, so should net out around 8.5%. You'll know when it's ready cause I'll stop posting for a couple of months o_O

PB rules: 1) Open the tap the tiniest amount for the first few pints, and have patience with the pour. Then you'll get a decent balance between head and actual beer. 2) Don't expect a fizzy pint. Ain't gonna happen! 3) Listen to @Hazelwood. I think he's a PB, reincarnated. 4) See rule #3.

Welcome Meanbeanz! I make a regular pilgrimage to Cornwall (not recently tho, of course) - Met my wife in Pendeen 20 odd yrs ago and have been going back ever since. Love it.

And another one here...relocated to Yorkshire. I love the Timothy Taylors, but miss foaming pints of Bass! Welcome to the forum athumb..

MJ Pink Grapefruit IPA gone into the FV today, brewing to 20ltrs to bump up the abv. OG = 1.062. If it comes down to the target 1.012 it should be 6.9%. Looking forward to this one!

Most of the action happens on the surface but it's certainly not unusual to see some activity at the bottom amongst the trub. Don't sweat it - you're all good!

This is a great discussion. I'm 'kit only' at the moment and, if possible, would like to stay that way. Time is my most valuable commodity, so if I can minimise time invested and still get a great result with a kit, that's what I'll do. Having picked up brewing again after a decade's hiatus...

Succumbed to temptation tonight and had a premature taste of the St Peter's Cream Stout, after only a week in the bottle. Damn, if it's this good now, it's gonna be awesome this time next month.

Awesome. Count me in too please. Thanks!
