Penalties! :laugh8:

It would have been cool to go through this slowly to allow folks to buy the beers and sample them against each other, but I guess it would take all year to get through the contest! There's plenty of beers in there I haven't tried. Think I'm going to use this as inspiration anyway...

Brew day went well and I ended up with 13.5L in the Fermenter at 1.070. I topped this up with 5.4L water to get 19L at 1.051, bang on target. Maris Otter, Caragold, Caramalt Columbus, Amarillo, Citra, Mosaic, Zeus, El Dorado in this one. CML US Pale yeast pitched at 18C for 3 days now, then...

Can I add Brew York's Imperial Tonkoko? I can't get enough of this beer.

Great beer. I didn't know it was a Challenger single hop ale! Got a recipe?

My India Helles Lager using the recipe for Camden Town IHL from the Euan Ferguson Craft Brew book. To say I'm pleased with this one is an understatement. Tropical fruit aroma and flavour is off the scale. Still very young and a little hazy.

14213L + 18L of APA = 14231L

It's all coming out now! :laugh8:

Ok, that makes sense. Only around 10L left in this keg though so trying my best to make it last until Secret Santa! :laugh8:

I brewed again today so all being well I could up from 1 to 2.

Brew day is go. An American Pale Ale for the Christmas party. First time dabbling with water chemistry. Tested the alkalinity, dosed with Phosphoric acid to reduce it and added a smidge of calcium chloride and magnesium sulphate to give me a 3:1 sulphate to chloride ratio. First time brewing...

That sounds lovely! I'm attempting something similar this afternoon. That Brewbucket looks the business!

Brülosophy did an experiment on this and determined that there was a perceivable difference in the beer. That said, Marshall couldn't tell them apart and it it didn't make bad beer, just different beer...

Home made blackberry whisky using blackberries from the garden which has been maturing for 15 months. Delicious!

Just noticed this was reduced from £20 to £7 on Amazon and bagged a copy. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1784722952/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 Had a look in Waterstones and seems a real nice book. Has a few recipes in including Beavertown Gammaray. Thought others might fancy a copy at that...

Usually a recipe as a base. That said I brewed a pale ale for the corny using left overs a couple of months back, no recipe and it was one of my favourite beers to date!

Welcome to the forum! athumb..

My clone of the Brew By Numbers Citra Saison from Euan Ferguson's Craft Brew book. Cheers!

I turn a crate upside down and poke back through the hole from the bottom.

@strange-steve I just wanted to echo everyone else here in adding my thanks for your effort in putting these guides together. Your two water threads along with the Salifert threads are no nonsense, straight to the point and easy to follow. I've been putting off water treatment for ages and...
