    Your day off.

    I've never had a problem with being contactable when out of work and yet have very rarely been contacted. I guess that's a side effect with sharing my knowledge so if I'm not around someone knows how to carry on with the work i'd normally do. Hording knowledge and not sharing would have the...

    DME displacement

    one sec.... i brew at around 21 litres and usually use 3kg of dme I normally subtract 2 liters so 19 litres of water when adding the dme takes it up to around 21 bear in mind I usually add a bottle of GS 710ml - so very roughly 1.5kg of DME adds 1 litre to 10 litres of water

    Separate kit for mixed ferm, Brett etc?

    Death by cycle.

    Yesterday I was on my ebike on a shared use path doing 13 when I was overtaken by 2 cyclists. Knowing that they were 'going to be clearing a path' (loose dogs long leads or 2-3 people walking side by side with a gap wide enough to not get though but too small to pass though) I sped up to tag...

    What are you drinking tonight 2024.

    on Friday. Just had to get some food down first before verdant TTO at beerriff So did all of the verdant except lightbulb and the other session beer. Beerriff are better options. I did really enjoy sniffing the wrong people 😂. Hell for plether and big stupid westy V3. Then I got home and I...

    Death by cycle.

    Totally agree as a cyclist I ignore my 'rights' under H3. All those drivers not who are aware of it are a risk to a cyclist and you already get D1cks who rush to pass you then cut you up turning into a side street. I do cycle around 10mph in certain parts and the number of people who squeeze me...

    Adding DME to AG brew

    dme doesn't need to be boiled for flavour purposes. I often pour it into a fer-mentor of non boiled water. The process of making it means it should be free of microorganisms when packed.

    Well given there won't be any beerriff beers at their tap on Friday 🥺 because it's a Verdant TTO 😍 thought id get my fix in. So the one without a can is my Face off just to break up the insanely tasty tropical haze party. Followed by Sixth birthday dipa and finishing off with "singing...

    Agreed athumb.. I did recently read up on it when I heard of the law change https://www.gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-code It was also to confirm that a round rectangular sign was INFORMATIONAL - Warning if red - Advisory if blue (that's why you see Cyclists dismount signs in both forms)...
