No brew today, but did one on Monday, another batch of my Saison of Love (dry hopped with H. Blanc). It's been a real hit, gave a bottle from the last batch to my neaghbour as he 'caught me' cleaning my stuff outside and gave me that look of what the heck is all that! So explained to him that I...

In the past I've just used an immersion chiller, however my latest brew I added 2 litres of frozen water (factored this into the recipe). The water was bottled water, the same I use throughout brewday and was frozen overnight in sanitised Tupperware. Really helped chill it down quick, although...

I've used them for a couple of orders, 1st was when they were originally in beta and the images on the caps were all over the show, not centered and the finishing on the majority weren't great, sticky and glossed etc. Granted this was in beta and they have since corrected many of the problems...

Many thanks for the quick post, your bitter looks good! I wont be able to brew until early next week monday/tuesday. My saison tasted fine after 4 weeks, force carbed. The only thing I had issues with excess foaming, clarity isn't really top of my list, more flavour and aroma. Anything I do...

Hi, offered to brew a beer for my wife's friend's "DIY" wedding on 12th August. Probably should of read the wedding invite, details abit more when we first got them (month or so ago). Anyway....next week I'll be brewing either my saison of love, that is a tried or tested recipe or an APA...

Could be somewhere like the tabacco docks. I believe agin festival was hosted there last year. I attended a ps4 vr experience and it had a decent amount of space for talks and sponsors /vendors. All depends on how well it gets supported. I looked a few hours after backing it this morning and it...

Hi all, I'm in no way associated with this project, I hope I also haven't duplicated threads on the subject. However over the last month or so I've been tracking this new brew con. that is being organised by Beer Boars, it sounds like it could be quite fun, their post from yesterday explains...

Personally I've got it to about 8-10 degrees C. it took alot of frozen water bottles probably about 10l worth and some frozen ice cream tubs (filled with water - not ice cream!) I tend not worry about cold crashing. During fermentation I just have a couple of 2-2.5l water bottles on rotation...

1st time I tried brewing a Stout, I decided not to hold back and brew a Oatmeal, Chocolate Milk Stout. Turned out bloody lovely!! apart from my dry hopped Saison, this is the best recipe I've brewed and have no real need to drastically change the recipe, so here it is. Batch Size: 15ls...

Worst beer I've done would be the 2nd attempt for my Red IPA, I modified the recipe from the 1st batch and essentially over hopped it (85g for 12l) It was so bitter I tried to drink it but was too much so had ditch it. Another not so great batch was a punk IPA clone, don't really know what...

Just found out via Twitter today that both brewuk and malt Miller are stocking a 3 tap kegerator minus the kegs and co2 for £599 (not including delivery) Malt Miller has a pre order for Tuesday 27th June brewuk just states pre order.

Brewed a new recipe for me using mosaic and equinox hops,a session ipa using oats and honey

I agree with Brulosophy, only listened to a few episodes so far, however rate it over beersmith. There's something about beersmith that doesn't sit with me, don't really know what it is maybe the endless plugs for beersmith or when they have a guest speaker its plug a minute regarding their...

Funny but not funny thing. I posted mine mid week only to find that it got shipped back to me even though it was entered on the system to go to the shipping location. Parcel force just read the top address(mine). I used the prepopulated labels from the website. Managed to get it resent today

I just posted my entry today, didn't want to risk missing the deadline next weds. Also after trying a bottle last night, I'm as happy with it as one would be. I don't think I'll get near the prizes but it's going to be a great way to get feedback regardless.

Hi all, quick idea I'm still working on but with a clear idea in mind. I want to do an IPA using Mosaic and Equinox, however will want to add Oatmeal and adding a pot of honey (340G) as a late addition/prior to pitching yeast. so for a starter for 10 Title: Midsummer Mosaic Brew Method...

Check out my blog post http://brannbrew.blogspot.co.uk/2017/05/brewlog-26052017-branns-breakfast-stout.html regarding my brew day. It went pretty successful overall!! :)

Hi, Saison turned out well, had a 2 week bottle last night and was almost carbed. The grain basket really helped during the brew day. Doing a milk stout today but trying a no sparge approach this time to see if it makes my life even easier. My Saison has been the only recipe I've done in almost...

Off the back of trying some sweet/oatmeal/chocolate milk stouts (or a combo of the lot) Tomorrow will be brewday for Panda's Breakfast Stout. Based off Dead Metaphor by BrewDog, I tweaked the recipe slightly, again, based off some examples I tried and liked elements of those I wanted to...

Sorry for not responding earlier, after thinking it over and talking to the boss I think I'll keep with what I have got for now. I recently ordered a SS Grain Basket to use for my mash instead of a grain bag. Brewed a saison last week and it worked really well on the day. Much easier than using...
