Looks stunning, feels a bit surreal someone brewed a beer based on my recipe. I've actually made the blackberry sour again since. I substituted a kilo of the Pilsner Malt for Vienna and it added a sizeable amount more body to it as well as lowering the abv slightly.

So drop the Crystal completely? Trade Summit at bittering for any other high AA hop and trade the later summit for more amarillo maybe? Galaxy isn't great at the moment so perhaps go with Idaho instead?

So you think drop the crystal completely or half it? Or replace it? Nothing ordered so everything is in flux. Just looking for a) a nice beer that's pretty straightforward to brew and b) interested in the affects of different yeast. Never done much in the way of split batches so not really had a...

I've never used Verdant before, and honestly it's the one I'm most excited to try. Could bob that in a 20l (is too much headspace a problem). The 10% Crystal probably isn't necessary in all honesty, I'm still chasing a blend I got when I was extract brewing, something similar to 2kg Light DME...

Hi All, Planning on doing a split batch to test out the affect different yeasts have on IPAs (and also to nail down my house IPA). Just want to do a quick recipe check. Plan on brewing the same recipe twice splitting 20 litres between 4 demijohns with one batch and putting the other into my...

It sounds like something Alan would suggest on I'm Alan Partridge.

Probably late to the game, but I'm binging The Bear. Takes a minute to get going, but once it does it's very good.

Do it. And Mythic Quest. Both are great.

Actors profiles increase and they get more creative control too. Actors start to not want to look ugly or have their characters suddenly be funny and things like that. Also writers tend to revert back to 'what works' like in Game of Thrones when they kept making everyone be in a duo because it...

I thought they very famously did dry hop for the antibacterial properties of hops.

Quick recipe check. 20l. 2.5kg Extra Pale Malt 2kg Maris Otter 0.1kg Carapils (I know it doesn't really fit, but it's some leftovers). Mashing at 67 degrees for an hour. Should get me an OG of 1.051 as per Brewer's Friend. 12g Admiral for 60mins 10g Jester for 10mins 10g Harlequin for 10mins...

I really like and have used Summit quite a lot and never had a problem with it.

Slightly off topic. I've got some Olicana in the freezer. When I opened them they had a sort of 'oniony' smell. Never used Olicana before, so I don't know if that's normal (but I doubt it). Got in touch with the malt miller who said it's not normal and kindly sent another bag. Got the same...

Aye, Aldipa is fine. Occasionally they'll get some cracking stuff in. I got a few cases of Thornbridge California Sun a few years ago at a very low price. Always decent for picking up some odd tins to drink in the cinema too.

Not at Aldi prices though i'd imagine. This is a bang for your buck champion.

Finally got round to trying this yesterday and it is spectacular.

I use it for bittering and I know it's good at that. Never really played about with it so I can't tell you what sort of flavours you get. Worked a treat for bittering Philly Sours though.

Everything i've seen about this yeast is 'the more you use the sourer the beer'. I used two in my one and only brew with it and it turned out bang on. My query (using your example) is, if you did a 40l batch of the same beer would you use two packets for the same 'sourness' or one packet maybe...

Potter. He's available. He got Brighton playing good football. I'm not holding Chelsea against him (that job is a poisoned chalice at the moment). He's managed abroad. He's English. I understand wanting Klopp, but I can't see him wanting the England job. I think he takes a year out then looks...
