    Matching a water profile

    I came up with sometime similar - sodium seems to be the problem in this little conundrum. I would have thought that this profile as fine, sodium being less important than the other elements?

    Planning a Raspberry Wheat

    To be fair I was using frozen raspberries from Lidl. I did start to try and bring them up to pasteurisation temperature in a pan but it all felt like it was turning into jam and I had chosen much too small a pan so it made stirring them all a bit tricky such that second half of raspberries...

    Planning a Raspberry Wheat

    I just banged mine straight in the FV and gave it all a good cold crash prior to packaging. Fruit all dropped out.

    How many of you have?

    I spend a lot of time in pubs. Lockdown has saved me a fortune as most pints in my work local are £6.50ish.

    What are you drinking tonight 2021?

    Yep in the brewcave 36c. Happily I'm back from the out laws in Orpington where I arrived with 8 tributes and 12 grolsch. Not sure I did those justice but a small price to pay for being back in my kingdom. Currently can't face addressing fobbing on keezer offerings so a 660 ml bottle of Morretti...

    Brewdog culture of fear for Employees

    And let's face it selling out to private equity is not that punk.

    In the meantime I would say this is my favourite gin, from just outside Bassenthwaite. Its actually a malt whisky place iI have some kind of founders share in and they send me a bottle each year etc ( the whisky, someone gifted me the gin)

    What are you drinking tonight 2021?

    And by way of postscript its in the extra cold keezer with the @Hazelwood Brewery german Pilsner and my raspberry wheat. The remnants of the festive 'Tinsel toes' less convincing at 3c. My goodness I feel I am settling on a house lager and a house stout 3 and a half years in. The quest for a...

    Just doing year 8 parents evening (as a parent rather than teacher) - all by video these days which is just as well as this nitro stout might settle enough for me to top it up. #vicarscollar

    What are you drinking tonight 2021?

    Glass (bottle) of expensive rose the guy from Laithwaites talked me into buying a load of when he caught me after a few shandies the other day. Accompanied by bbqued char sui pork and pak choi from the garden crop.

    What are you drinking tonight 2021?

    Been sweltering in the brew shed/ home office today. Happy to report that temperature has dropped to a chilly 29C in here. Anyway this raspberry wheat is just the ticket. Gutted I only did a 9.5l cornie. Hardly ever make a trial batch. Photos don't do it justice - it's a vibrant pink/ red colour.

    Grainfather equipment profile (brewfather)

    I'd second these stats - for a typical 5 kg grain bill I reckon I need 32L water to get 21 in FV which tallies with the above when you take into account grain absorption

    Holidays.

    And the tube. Poor old small pubs struggling to break even because of the 1m rule but have meticulous sanitisation, tracking one way systems etc but then get on tube and everyone cheek to jowel in an enclosed tin box with no accountability at all.
