21L Golden Scottish Belgian ale Total 15181

Lately anywhere between 6 - 10 days, i dont use temperature control so only room temps and using a tilt. Checking OG & FG with a hydrometer.

i,ve brewed this a few weeks ago, ready to try this week. i did fill a soda stream bottle and try a glass whilst bottling and tasted good, also came in above predicted abv around 8.5% https://community.grainfather.com/recipes/70159

The belgian ale went well, i bottled a couple of weeks ago so should be good this week. i also filled a litre soda stream bottle and carbonated whilst bottling to try, was tasting good. planning on making another pilsner this week as i have the ingredients and like to condition in the secondary...

About time Boris went with Hancock too !

Copied a recipe from grainfather site “Scottish golden ale” says camra award winner in fife !) Came out 1.071 instead of 1.067 so ooh it’s could be strong !!

Sorry ! But my tilt has worked perfectly for the past couple of years without changing the battery 20++ brews 😊

The Pilsner is good ! You can taste a slightly malty/caramel taste to the Pilsner. It came in around 5.7% abv. I poured to try to make the head small, I used 107g of Demerara sugar to carbonate when bottling.

I’ve always got something on the go ! Imperial stout drinking, Hazy Neipa (with marmelade), too ! And the Pilsner should be good to go. Next week I’m planning on a brewing a Belgian golden ale.

Hey 👋 After fermentation with mj Californian yeast, I’ve allowed mine to condition in a secondary for 7x weeks before bottling. They’ve always carbonated maybe 3-4 weeks. I’ll add a photo when I’m home next week of the darker Pilsner I’ve made.

Ouch ! Yes my grainfather was a little burnt on bottom but I left overnight to soak overnight and cleaned ok. latest I added 500g of carabohemian malt, so be interesting how it is. Bottled a couple of weeks ago so be good to try when I’m home next week 😊

Well ! It was likes of brewdog and innes gunn got me into homebrew 😊 but now the beers are tasting a little sub-standard from brewdog, with all the new breweries coming along. There are a lot better beers available. Good of them to publish the diy-dog as others have stated. Using as a reference...

Yes but I do try a few different beers from a couple of bottle shops, they stock these ! Not cheap but good.

Not known where it was until now !) They do some good beers 👍

We will all pop round :laugh8:

I've not noticed places that people recomend for a beer ! So as a starter i've had a few beers in the Salt Horse in edinburgh, they do burgers and theres around a dozen taps with different breweries beers. Also a bottleshop which also acted as a cafe where you could have a snack and try one of...

Grainfather you can fill the night before and set delay timer, saves a little time filling and then usually 30,40 min to get upto mash temperature.

I went in at the deep end when I first started a couple of years ago and went for the grainfather. Is an excellent bit of kit and I’ve had no problems. I tend to make 29-30L wort when I brew and heats up pretty quickly to the boil. Bluetooth app works well. I also have a speidel fermenter which...

I agree with most, I swapped carb drops and started using an online calculator and priming sugar after a couple of brews. secondly I try to pick a day when the missus isn’t working she does a wonderful job bottle washing whilst I fill 😉
