That's what I've done. We'll his feet are a v shape which I'll use instead of the v in love as part of a roses are red poem. With abit of graphic design so can whip something.

myself my and wife tend not to do Valentines, maybe a card and takeaway or one of us cooking the favourite meal of the other. We will have a 9 week old baby by sunday, so while I was changing him last night I got his foot prints to do something with. May also slip a bar or two of chocolate in...

I've recently purchased a BrewMonk. very similar to a robobrew except you have a sight glass with a volume level and the element power is pragmatically set rather than 2 switches, the Malt Miller do a 3 year warranty on the product too. I couldnt justifiy the cost of a grainfather with the...

Out of everything Ive read or watched on the brewzilla or brewzilla variants, your post was one of the most helpful. I had a little less pre boil (26l) but the amount lost was equivalent to yours. I lost 3 litres Boil off and probably 3 in trub and because I stopped transfer when flow stopped...

If I drink anything tonight i'll probably be on my back....hit the wall after 5 week old only settles on me and trying to develop PowerApps for departments. I do have some beef tacos tonight so may have a can of Trapped in Amber from Staggeringly Good. I've got my brew monk being delivered today...

That's awesome news! No I haven't brewed yet. I had other things going on last weekend in the end and also had to wait till Friday to get some of the hops for the recipe. I've also justt bought a brewmonk so will wait for that to arrive. Aiming for Fri/sat by the time it arrives and I do dry...

Im hoping mine all arrives for then too. The ragnar strain from the same company turned out great, used it for a orange, honey wheat beer.

yeah a robobrew/brewzilla is what Im edging towards. Currently have a brewpot,induction hob and a cooler for a mash tun. So is abit time consuming and a fath at times. I havent used ebbe before but Id recommend giving it a try if my experiences are anything to go by with kveik. Just a different...

To you too, ours would be a month to the day on Wednesday. probably abit mad trying to do a brew but hes on the **** and the wife said that should do a brew and tbh ive been wanting to do one but have resevations how i'll cope if the little one is restless, but i can pop back and forth from the...

My wife gave birth to our first 4 weeks ago, in a similar way to a brew I've done a few times that use hops that start with the same letters as my dads initials, I am planning to do a beer that the hops start with the same letters as my sons name. So EVAN. I've had the Brooklyn Lager/Steam Beer...

I'm thinking of doing either Sierra Nevada celebration ale clone (from the BYO big book) as we, wife and I are expecting our first any day now or my life finds a way amber (hops that match my dads initials, 1st Christmas without dad) or a black IPA version of life finds a way. Probably wont be...

Ive struggled at times, my wife has been pregnant throughout this entire covid time (no not covid conceived) so I have been shielding along with her, it took long enough for us to conceive to jinx anything now. Fortunately I have been able to work from home all this time. I have struggled at...

Punk was always my favourite, the 'original' was actually what got me into craft beer and ultimately led me into this hobby. At the moment however I keep going back to Lost Cosomonauts by North Brewing Co. and Anchor Steam Beer and Brooklyn Lager

I haven't brewed this beer in a couple years, surprisingly. Planning to brew it on my new 'home built' brew trolley/stand. Brew Method: All Grain Style Name: American Pale Ale Boil Time: 60 min Batch Size: 26 liters (fermentor volume) Boil Size: 32 liters Boil Gravity: 1.039 Efficiency: 70%...

Selling my old mash/grain basket that I use to use for my ace boiler / all in one system. 25cm diameter by 45 long (excluding handle) hoping for £10 for it. Collection only.

Y Yeah, it probably started under 1/2 hour and was under in around 2 days. Ive never under pitched Kveik even if people say you can

It was an 11g packet of Voss Kveik from MM.

That was what I've always struggled with. took 35 mins to chill to 36c and pitched and was done fermenting in 2 days. Have been using Kveik yeast for the last 6 brews and wont look back. 1st time this time with dried Kveik yeast little more cost effective but appears just as good results as...

Its been the 1st chance to post since brewday a couple weeks ago. The beer is carbing up ready for the proper test this weekend but the taste out of the fermenter when transferring was very promising. Basically like drinking it real ale style. Hops come through but not in an overpowering way and...

It maybe be fresh from the fermenter but it's balanced, with the hops lingering last in a really nice way, coats the mouth. Just going to have to wait to carb up now for a week or so. I'm super happy about how this has turned out. I have another thread about the beer itself which I'll update...
