Yes it's been prodicted by brewersfriend

After having 1 too many mid strength (5.5% beers) over the weekend I'm certainly thinking about making a more session/table beer. Current plan is around 3%. I've yet to listen to basic brewing's podcast on the subject of low beers but have read Mad Fermenterlists recipes and points on it. The...

What is your target abv? I am in similar minds to use rye and oats, and even some lactose I have left over from a brew in Nov as I have a low ipa/neipa style beer in mind. May use golden promise as the base malt with some munch ii or light Munich,with the rye, oats and lactose.. Will post...

A conversation came up within the Verdant Putty Thread regarding the recipe of their Light Bulb. I recently purchased the Hop & Barley #9 that it came from and can confirm it has been given from the brewery themselves. Thought to share. https://photos.app.goo.gl/VRDwqtDe7sQ5eWy58

Verdant Light Bulb Recipe

I'll post a copy later today for light bulb and a scanned/photo of pulp from CAMRA's essential home brewing book too. Edit: Tried to take a picture via phone of the Pulp recipe but it well... Didn't come out great! So will try to scan it in or use a tablet to capture. I've posted the Light...

I did, thank you for pointing the blog out to me, some great and interesting posts, the recipes look interesting too. I've been looking into the CAMRA's Essential Home Brewing book too and they gave a tip on the siren brew yu lu recipe if you drop the lemon & Earl Grey it would give a good table...

Ha yes. I went down to Falmouth last year and not having any verdant prior to this I did get abit carried away. Ended up spending £65!

The topic of low alcohol beer has been of interest to me recently, I wouldnt necessarily have complete faith to if it was low alcohol do you could take a growler round a friends and still be under the limit. But like others have said having a week day beer without the sins is a big draw.

I spotted that tweet too. Issuu has a digital copy of hop and barley's magazines for £3. Think I'll get it and also I think volume 2 which has about bottle art.

On another side note is Hop & Barley magazine a good read? it looks like its put together well & especially vol 9 that has a few recipes it seems. I've subscribed to BYO in the past (no doing their digital membership) and also have read Ferment mag. The article's in Ferment in the past have...

Yes, Pulp's recipe is in the Camra's Essential Home Brewing Book, I've brewed 2 recipes from the book, the cream ale that is carbing in the keg ready for the weekend & the corbel recipe (with carafe 3 malt addition to make it a black ipa) that is fermenting away.

Most of it did sink under the trub dam of my SS Brewtech kettle but some did pass through. I had another strainer over my keg (which I use to chill the wort overnight in the fridge). The strainer clips onto a set of legs that the feet nicely rest ontop, also is wide enough to secure around the...

No I don't filter it in anyway apart from straining the wort to help remove any cacao nibs that get through the kettle filter. I've tried Moss & tablets before on different brews & didn't see any real noticeable difference than not using them. I would think it would work ok, maybe increase...

Just a little update on how my latest batch of this beer went. After doing some experimental beers on my new setup I was hoping that this beer would turn out well, but I was hesitant it wasn't going to go well. Apart from collecting too much wort and boiling for 100mins it was a successful brew...

Thanks, I'll remember this when I get round to brewing a 'party batch'

Thanks, I don't do largers anyway, so the pressure would be no higher than 2-2.3 psi as its a milk Stout is what I'm thinking of transfering. Now the question is do I go to staggeringlygood today to get a filled easy keg at £26, drink and refill with mine or just get a couple empty easykegs from...

Looking to get some of the grey mini/easy kegs and fill for a Xmas present for my dad. One question though all Ive read is priming it with sugar. Has anyone had experience with transferring already carbed beer from a keg into it?In a similar way you'd fill a growler. Would the carbonation hold...

Stouts only require a small amount of hops, most of the flavour comes from the malts. The amount of water for the mash was when I had an all in one system, so did a full volume mash. Doing proper all grain you'll probably be looking at 2.5 x the weight of the grain so around 9l then sparge to...
