Hip additions. Fuggles at 4.4%

Glad you said that buddy. Because I'm bloody doing it now lol. I'm going 4.8kg MO 500g CM 200gVM 100g BM HOPSTO be confirmed shortly

Very much looking forward to a bottle swap with you buddy. I have never used Munich malt before so interested to see what that brings. I'll post my final recipe soon

Saturday morning for me pal. I'm at work Friday and picking up an adopted degu after work so an early Saturday morning brew is the plan. What's your recipe?

And you sir just said what I needed to hear!!! Thank you 😆 Knowing my luck I have calculated the water wrong and it'll come out like bloody barley wine but regardless I'll drink it. Even if it is undrinkable! I shall look at the hop schedule again and repost my alterations in...

Yeah id ike that buddy. Once I do the brew I will.post my starting gravity. Beersmith says 1.053 with 500g of crystal and 200 victory, 100 black malt and 4.8kg MO. Final gravity should be 1.013 which will give the right mouth feel for what I'm trying to achieve. I agree that the 90 and 60...

You see now I'm at a quandary. I have bought 500g of 152 ebc crystal and 500g of victory. I'm looking at the colour of adding all of the Crystal and I love residual sweetness as long as there is a happy aftertaste. I'm in two minds whether I should have posted it on here or not but I really...

Well I appreciate the input at least

I have already bought it... it arrives tomorrow. Is it not worth throwing in the 200g? Will it ruin the beer? So keep my other hop additions as is but throw all the goldings in at 10 minutes?

Ah ok. I thought I would try and use up the old fuggles. I will revisit the hops additions. I know that in previous brews I used around 80g of hops buy I do use very low alpha hops wherever possible. I have noticed tonight that the Fuggles pack is very much not as vacuumed as it probably was...

I have amended to: 4800g maris otter 200g Victory Malt 200g crystal malt (152 ebc) 100g black malt 90 minute mash. 90 minute boil. 90 mins 20g fuggles 60 mins 25g goldings 30 mins 10g fuggles 20 mins 10g EKG 10 mins 10g fuggles 5 mins 15g goldings IBU now 29.1 Ebc now...

Good call. I'll reduce the 90 minute addition! If I go to 20g I come down to 28.9 IBU Wow that was quick! I find Beersmith I royal pain in the backside at times... The problem is I deleted the app a year ago and can't remember log in details (even if I created one) so can't see the recipes or...

Would you say ditch the Caramalt and reduce the crystal malt? I just had 160g of Caramalt left over...

Ah. I only have Beersmith. Is brew mate free? Those fuggles are over 2 years old in the pack and I'm pretty sure they were really low alpha content. Probably better to be safe than sorry...

Hi boys and girls, It's been over 2 years since I was brewing and a couple of weeks ago I made some AG beer. I don't think it'll be great but as a reminder for the processes it has helped a lot. I have spent some time today coming up with some ideas for a recipe and I am looking at using more...

THANK YOU!!!! 😆 Who are CML?

Good call! I only recommend citra at the end because woodfordes told me to. Not as explicit as that but when I suggested it they applauded my choice. I'm from and live in Nottingham. We have no ties. But woodfordes were brilliant in helping me create my finest ever all grain beer...

Welcome back. I have also been absent for some time but with my house move (immenent) I will be back on the AG mission. Just need a 100l boiler now 😃

For gods sake don't try the broadside. Just do this one and you will not be disappointed I can assure you!!!

I actually loved this beer and I am about to make it again. It does lack body if drunk too soon but given 2+ months and it is wonderful. I tried using an extra kilo of pale malt on a batch a week after this. That has body earlier, after a month it's brill if not a little strong. However...
