I sparge with water of 95C, works like a charm for mashing out ^^,.

Thats for multiple reasons. The calculations are pretty good. But our brewing techniques and taste perception are usually a bit variable.

Bikes! Finally something on which I am an expert on this forum, since I am Dutch :D. An e-bike is useful in the city if: - You are old or otherwise physically unfit - You are lazy Else you can just use a normal bike. In the city you cycle such short distances and there are so many times you...

I wonder if it will work. The filter you are using is a hop filter with a small surface area. I wonder if it won't clock. Just try it out :), if it doesn't clog it's all good.

Here usually it's just apple with some citric acid and an anti oxidant. That would be fine. Im anxious to get this project started :D. I hope it works.

Hi Bezza, thank you for your reply! It really depends on the specific apple sauce I think. The better apple sauces (and home made) are simply concentrated mashed apples without any added sugars. Cheap one's add some sugar. Anyhow, I bought some of the ultra cheap apple sauce and some of the...

I think I will just try it with two batches. I've got a lot of 2.5L bottles lying around for this purpose. Batch 1: Cook the apple puree to extract all the sugars and filter before adding to the FV Batch 2: Mix the apple puree with cold water and just add to the FV. I wonder wether or not you...

Hey guys, I was wondering. Have any of you tried making cider from pureed apples you can buy in the store? In the Netherlands this is very cheap. Non-concentrated apple juice costs about 1.50 per liter. If I would take the same amount of energy in apple puree (95% apples it says) and add water...

I'm sure that won't give any trouble or ambiguity haha.

Many good hops out there :). Magnum is a very "safe" bittering hop, I would say. I don't think there are any styles in which it is completely out of place. As for IPA's, many different styles out there. Personally I think that for the citrus explosion of an american IPA you can just skip...

Some bittering hops give a more "harsh" bitter. Magnum is about the least harsh bittering hop there is, terrific hop.

Change the settings om your malt Miller. The closer the rolls are the finer the crush.

There are no seperated gender sports. Generally woman can partake in any competition dominated by men. There are special woman categories. But there are no men categories.

Yeah definately, you can crush a bit finer with BIAB. I have had up to 75% with BIAB. Its a fun method to use when you're doing small batches. For batches bigger than 10L its difficult. For batches bigger then 20L its a complete hell. Its so incredibly heavy. And when you have a lot of grains...

Hi Marko. You can sparge if you like, this gives you a higher sugar extraction. But personally I wouldn't botter. BIAB usually yields approximately a decrease of 10% in this aspect. The exact amount of water retention by the malt isn't important. You should try to squeeze out as much water as...

Guns: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimated_number_of_guns_per_capita_by_country God: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_the_United_States It's not a stereotype. I don't think there is a western country where religion is practiced so fanatically as in the USA. And there isn't any...

No, but she seems to fit in quite well there. God and guns are basically the two most treasured things in the USA.

Do you actually believe that you should be allowed to kill anyone who tries to steal your stuff?

Everyone has rights, always. How do you know anyone is not a threat? If you bump into me in the street should I be allowed to shoot you? You might have bad intentions. Its not that difficult, if someone goes down and doesn't come up you walk away. If someone isn't even approaching you, you...

If you are in danger you are well in your rights to do that. That's both the law and the opinion of most people. However, when the item you use is something clearly designed for that purpose then its reasonable to investigate because it shows intent. Is it really that strange to investigate when...
