I’m just going to stick to the recipe this time round other then the way I’m already changing it. By swapping the mild malt for pale malt and the dark crystal to medium!! Any body tried this beer?

Now my mind has been blown

The plot thickens!!

I will do, thanks again😉

I bet that was a bit on the lively side pilgrimhudd!! I don’t have any Vienna malt, I’ve never used it. Good to know for the future though. From memory I’ve only got medium crystal and the dark crystal form Geterbrewed

Nice one lads that’s brilliant. Looks like it’s a goer then! My dark crystal is from geterbrewed. I used in his brown porter I made. I’ll have to have a rummage when I get home from work and see what alternatives I have.

Morning brewers, just after a bit of advice. I’m planning on brewing the mild recipe from the Greg Hughes home brew beer book but I was thinking of using pale malt instead of mild malt, cause I don’t have any! and also increasing that to 3.5kg to up the abv a bit. Will this be ok or will I need...

Very nicely done that. Clever idea

I think I’m going to alter it now!! I used a paint can to Mould the coils round the outside coil and a bit of 4” soil pipe for the inner coil, so I need to find something with a large diameter to rejig it and have it all covered. It’s always going to be at the back of my mind otherwise!

My immersion chiller is homemade and was made before I had of boil kettle and a fair few of the coils aren't covered by wort when in use, do you think there could be an issue with sanitisation because there not in the boiling liquid? I just assumed the steam would do the job. It chills fine btw...

I’m very new to all grain myself.. about six brews in, I’m doing 5 gallon ish batch’s but it’s all relative. I’ve found skimming off the hot break foam has helped me reduce the amount of trumb in the f.v. I’m putting one of the supermarket reusable veg bags over the end of the hose when I...

oh right, fair enough mate. Not even really sure why I asked that question!! I think the tight arse in me sensed a freebie bonus!!

On that note.. do you lads over there reuse the the containers as no chill cubes?

I put half the priming solution before filling the bottling bucket the other half when full but do still give it a gentle stir too. I don't like flat beer!!

Love to know how that turns out when you get stuck into it.

Well it's sorted now. Fantastic customer service from geterbrewed. Once the email was read, Deborah from the company never stopped emailing me with ways to fix the problem till it was sorted. I had to use safari rather then the Google app and it went straight through in the end. Thanks for your...

Hahahaha.... she won’t having none of that. I left a load of dry particles for fishing in my loft and it kind of caused a little mouse problem!!! I’m band from ever keeping anything grainy what so ever in the the house EVER again!!

and a van load of poo tickets!!

spot on Clint . I’ve only just started all grain and been ordering small amounts, brew by brew but was kinda preempting this and was hoping to get at least 10kg base malt and a few adjuncts. I’d get 25kg but ain’t got the amount of safe storage to protect it from the Mickey’s

Thanks very much for you quick reply. I’ll try ordering again...... after the football!!
