If you are happy with the beers you are producing it is not vitally important. Have a read of this excellent thread by Strange Steve, it's where quite a few of us started :) https://www.thehomebrewforum.co.uk/threads/beginners-guide-to-water-treatment.64822/

That depends on a couple of things 1) Do you want it carbonated or still. 2) If you want it carbonated are you kegging it or bottling it If you want it flat, go ahead and stabilise it once it has fermented out. You can then back sweeten it if you choose If you want it carbonated and are...

I have never used a pressure barrel, but could the issue be having 20L of headspace? That seems like an awful lot. As headspace increases you require more priming sugar?

I often pop 5% oats in my pale ales.

Not a headline strictly speaking, but...

I agree. I love many Belgian beers, but Duvel is not one of my favourites. If I was trying to introduce a foreigner to English styles, TT would be a solid choice.

Hmm. I like Chimay Blue and drink it often. I think I would really like the Rochefort 10, but have never tried it. How to vote....?

Nevermind Honk, trying it and disliking it is just as valid as trying it and loving it. This thread is all about sharing a cabin on this intrepid voyage of beer discovery! I have purchased a bottle from The House of Trembling Madness in York but haven't cracked it open yet .

Oxi clean and Starsan again here. Cheap, easy, no fuss.

Did you try the Imperial Tonkoko? My fave!

AHH! It's beer of the month Vs my favourite!

Spotted in Sainsbury's Harrogate this afternoon athumb..

I'm all up for hearing ideas. There are 36 beers in the world cup thread, so I just chose the first one out of there. One thing I did think, was that the commercial beers could align style wise with the monthly competition? If nobody has any strong feelings, I'll keep working through the world...

I've bought a carbonation cap like this: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F112538402680 Planning to try to use it like this:

Best have a practice at bottling from the keg then! That came around quick.

If anyone is wondering, or has been pronouncing it ''Vine-steff-arn" like me... :laugh8: :tinhat:

This dude from Paulaner talks with some authority on the matter of pouring a weiss. It seems the yeast goes in and a big head is what you're aiming for!
