    Fast Fermenation

    I was lucky enough this birthday to receive a tilt from my wonderful wife. For those that don’t know what a tilt is, it’s a device that you put in your fermentor to measure the SG and temp of your beer and Bluetooth the information to your phone. Amazing! I made an old ale at the weekend, had...

    Yeast.

    I’ve cold crashed for weeks, then bottled and they carbonated fine. They are resilient little things.

    Diacetyl rest

    Hi everyone I just kegged my Czech pilsner, it had been fermenting at 12C for two weeks and was down to 1.010 for a couple of days. I was keen to get it in the kegerator to start carbonation and lagering ASAP. I had a little taste and was delighted with the overall outcome, but I think there...

    Razorback IPA

    I brewed the razorback kit once, and it came out with a horrible medicinal aftertaste. It was the second kit I had brewed with similar effect. It really frustrated and I wanted to get to the bottom of it. I eventually narrowed it down to it being off flavours produced by the yeast from either...

    Star San withdrawn from sale in EU?

    Maybe it’s not good for you, come to think of it I use it every time I make a batch of beer, then when I drink my beer I tend to get a headache, sometimes I even end up falling over and pissing myself!

    Supermarkets and the race to the bottom

    As always it's down to the consumers and supermarkets that drive the prices right down. Them 'craft' beers sold in the supermarkets are merely a ghost image of what I would call craft beer. Still it's an improvement on Stella. And it's helping a lot of my friends get away from lager, and...

    Does Carbonation Pressure = Serving Pressure

    Yes your serving pressure will be 12psi, you can drop it down to serve, then put it back up again when your done but it's a pain the backside. I have taps with flow adjusters on them and I just slow it right down. Works ok, the best method is to use smaller beer line and increase the length to...

    Newbie Stuck Fermentation

    How are you testin your gravity? If your using a refactometer you need to convert it as it will give false readings due to the alcohol.
