    R.I.P Caramac

    Again? It tasted pretty plasticky/oily when they revived it last time. I see Toblerone are doing a golden caramel edition 🤤 Milkybar Gold buttons are good too.

    WHC - Mango Madness. Meh, not bothered.

    I've tended to find fermenting warm to have deleterious effect on hop flavour and aroma. What you gain in esters, you definitely seem to lose from your hops.

    Brasserie de la Senne yeast?

    Unfortunately not. Wasn't there when I was there. Had their Wadesda #9 using Cantillon Lambic which was bloody amazing.

    Brasserie de la Senne yeast?

    I visited De La Senne back in April. Will be going again in September. Excellent brewery.

    Hop mashing

    I don't think we can get the GMO strains over here unfortunately.

    Grainfather G40

    You do. Surprised at how dinky the box is for the mill.

    Grainfather G40

    It arrived a day early! Nice surprise.

    Grainfather G40

    Cheers. I was loathe to call it/see it as an upgrade as I feel like I'm already at the point where I have a streamlined process that is perfect for me Minimal drama and fuss on brew days, and am very happy with my beer from a taste and consistency point of view. I'm also not one for thinking...

    Help with a recipe! (previously "keeping it simple")

    Agree with all of this. Saison, Kölsch and Golden could all have very much the same recipe bar the yeast, so it's a good learning opportunity to see how yeast expression shapes a beer. Hefeweizen could be fun if that's their thing. Easy and very forgiving.

    Help with a recipe! (previously "keeping it simple")

    I wouldn't go near a NEIPA as a beginner. I nearly gave up brewing trying to work out how I couldn't get it right. Once you understand the importance of minimising oxygen exposure, they're not particularly difficult, but I'd not be suggesting it to someone starting out.

    Grainfather G40

    Lovely stuff. Music to my ears. I looking forward to having a new toy to play with. I'll need to start giving more of my beer away!

    I'll maybe hit you up when I'm setting up my equipment profile if that's ok?

    Thanks again for all of your advice folks. Bit the bullet and bought the G40 paired with the Grainfather mill. Now to wait! 🍻

    Presumably because he's an absolute moron.

    That looks tremendous. Love a dark lager.

    European Championship

    By a country mile. Not a classic Spain side by any means, but they were on a different level to England. Southgate far too conservative again. Olmo is a special player. Surprised he didn't win player of the tournament. I'd imagine there will be a big money move for him in the coming weeks.
