    Pub: All you can eat not all you can carry!

    I fully support the Landlords efforts. Some people are real pigs and so wasteful. Also most restaurants get charged for food waste bin uplifts. We don't as we are an offshore restaurant. But we do have a dog and cat on the books as waste disposal/vermin control and two huge composters that...

    Star San and distilled water

    Strange, our water is 7.85 the bottled is 8.2 with a calibrated PH meter. Maybe it is some other ion or anion that causes precipitation?

    Star San and distilled water

    Hop rocket T90 dry hopping to the keg?

    A brief summary. Hop rocket gets blocked with T90's however I pack them. Leaf is fine. Air pot with cryo-hops seems to give best hop aroma/flavour + I now add totally natural solutions "Hop Burst" extract to boost when required (CML stock this)

    Yeast slurry as veg firtilizer

    I have 2 x 200L blue storage drums filled from a sump & pump that takes all my liquid brewery waste. It decants and settles then goes to my raised beds. I used to check PH but now don't bother. Raised beds full of perennial kale and sprouting broccoli @ the mo. It is like a jungle megga green...

    have beer kits improved?

    Most of my brewing is still with Muntons light HLME, CML ale yeast, Dextrose and now cryohop wet hop tea. All grain is a time luxury I can't afford. The important things are a sanitisation regime, rigorously implemented recipe, water treatment, temperature control, CO2 pressure keg transfer...
