    Keg hopping

    I think I'd see Dr Hans or someone like that using them. Not something I've tried myself, but similar premise to the Flot-it. Scott Janish has a pretty cool method on his website. https://scottjanish.com/my-favorite-way-to-dry-hop-loose-in-primary-and-kegs/

    Electric cars.

    I've used public charger 3 times in 18 months. 2 times because I forgot to plug in overnight.

    Keg hopping

    I got my Flot-it on Amazon. It does indeed come from the USA. Hops into the keg after keg purged (quickly open the keg and chuck in). I purge my kegs with CO2 from fermentation, so can't put the hops in prior to the purge. Transfer beer on top (no bag). I can't say I've noticed a massive...

    Keg hopping

    I previously just used nylon hop bags to great effect. Now I use the Flot-it system. Big fan of keg-hopping.

    25% off Malt and Hops at The Homebrew Company

    Probably make more sense to buy in bulk to breach the delivery charge threshold.

    I feel your pain. I have enough hops to sink a battleship.

    Dry Hopping and IBU's plus adding Lactic to reduce PH when Dry Hopping

    I've certainly been guilty of assuming that. I think we've all known for some time that IBUs are of limited value, given the number of variables at play, but if there is a more accurate way of estimating bitterness that is more applicable to more modern hopping techniques, then the measurement...

    Using an indoor fridge outside

    It'll likely not last as long as if it was indoors, but if you can get it pretty cheap/freezing then go for it. They're not as fragile as you might think. I have one in my garage, but it's gone through winters with the occasional -10c overnight.

    25% off Malt and Hops at The Homebrew Company

    I absolutely do not need any more ingredients at the moment but am sorely tempted. Some excellent deals on there. 25% off all malt and hops. Malt: https://www.thehomebrewcompany.co.uk/grain-c-69.html Hops: https://www.thehomebrewcompany.co.uk/hops-c-77.html

    Dry Hopping and IBU's plus adding Lactic to reduce PH when Dry Hopping

    Thanks for the links. This is really interesting stuff. I hope we can see new measures of IBUs becoming more mainstream. To the best of my knowledge, I think a lot of this is perpetuated by the most common ways that IBUs are calculated in brewing software. Would be good to see some of this stuff...

    Great guys, and great service. One of them is a good Arab (Dundee United supporter) too.

    Covid

    They do. Tests are still sold, and used on the wards, but of very little purpose to the general public now.

    Covid

    I had it then too. Wiped me out for a couple of days. Seeing lots of it with patients , but nowhere near as bad as it was a couple of years ago, thankfully. It's never gone away.

    Charlotte Dujardin pulls out of Paris Olympics

    Well she's admitted the behaviour, so I think we can safely assume it's real.

    Is what real?

    Charlotte Dujardin pulls out of Paris Olympics

    I'd be up for her being whipped to see how she likes it.

    Charlotte Dujardin pulls out of Paris Olympics

    Perhaps, but I wouldn't necessarily extrapolate that the motives were one of eliminating competition. Perhaps it was to ensure the story wouldn't be buried. Releasing it now has ensured we're all talking about it.

    Charlotte Dujardin pulls out of Paris Olympics

    I agree with your second point. Do we have evidence that the video was taken/released by a competitor, or is this conjecture?

    Charlotte Dujardin pulls out of Paris Olympics

    It was taken two years ago. Her solicitor made the point that we were in various stages of lockdown 4 years ago and doesn't know where this number came from. He also said that she took a lot of convincing to come forward because she assumed that it must be standard practice given the profile of...

    British Hops

    Summit is definitely one that comes across oniony. I really quite like it!
