    Digital Thermometer

    I recently bought a cheese making kit that came with a analouge thermometer. Hands down easier to use than an electronic one. I've broke a few🤣

    Uk grain only..

    So in my efforts to be a better human being and lowering my carbon footprint I'm sticking to UK grain only. Swapping my pilsner to lager and special B to dark roasted crystal. Is there any non UK malt you couldn't do without? Please don't mention American hops. I could never be a good enough...

    I've always left, it does look very unappealing though 😱 I'm sure there's no harm in skimming.

    Quick update on sourdough beer. Its fermented down down to 1004. Has a lovely clean slightly tart taste. I'm going to age for 3 months incase there's some other bugs at bay. Also filled a demijon that I've added Brett dregs to👌

    March 2021 Comp - Freestyle!!

    I like the the sound of @Jamais beetroot ale. For one of the first freestyle comps I made a beetroot and horseradish saison.. It was way to out there🤣🤣 I think if I'd left the horseradish out I may of been in to something. Such a beautiful colour and taste.. then there was the horseradish 🤮🤮

    More than a nice drop bud, it really was epic 🙌 Last night I had yet another commercial mixed fermentation beer that was just lame tbh. I think they must package them super early or something?? I've got a few beers for you to try I'll send em over with my Belgium beer entry👍

    Co2 gas cylinder

    I asked him when we were on a bike ride so didn't get the number. But he did say that he had phoned the malt miller and got it from them. They always seem happy to help with stuff like that. Give them a call👍

    Yesterday I finally got my sourdough Berliner on the go👍 Made a brew of Pilsner and wheat to 1035. Added 2.8 ibu's of Ceila. There's a few bits on the web about using sourdough starters but none I could find went into the detail I'd of liked. So back if a gag packet pitching rate of 150g of...

    Quick starter or pitch on old yeast cake?

    A jam jar or two of trub will work a treat 👍

    So this week I'm finally getting around to a project I've been meaning to do for a while. Brew a low ibu Berliner and fermenting with my sourdough starter culture. Should I add Brett dregs or go purist and see what the sourdough produces? Hoping for a quick four month turn around 🍻

    I just brewed my second Philly sour. The first one a low abv Berliner turned out ace. This one a near 6 percent with lots of ibu's has nothing 😥 guess I shouldn't of been so tight and added two packs instead of one. How's yours going?

    Brettanomyces starter super funk

    Sounds awesome 👍 Just be careful lots of racking can introduce lots of oxygen that can leed towards the more funk/vinegar side.. can be good or bad depending on your tastes 😬
