... if the driver had accepted responsibility at the scene, received a Fixed Penalty Notice for "driving without due care and attention" in response and paid the fine and accepted the points .... then they wouldn't have had a court appearance and wouldn't have a criminal record (see below from...

Double Zombie American IPA, please. Cheers, PhilB

... I think last time I got some it was from BrewUK, but all the big online retailers seemed to be stocking it at the time ... I guess your Googling is showing, like mine, that most places just seem to be stocking their pre-hopped LME kits nowadays, but these still seem to have the base stuff...

Hi @peebee ... no need to hunt too hard, Breiss make a Sorghum Liquid Malt Extract, available in the UK under the Gone With the Wheat brand :?: Cheers, PhilB

Hi @Andrew Booth ... I don't have a Grainfather, but most of these all-in-one systems have settings for adjusting the temp that the controller sees as "Boiling" ... have a try to see if that (link) works for your S40 athumb.. Cheers, PhilB

Hi @An Ankoù At the risk of looking like some weirdo-Wheeler stalker (I'm not, honest, I've just got a handful of links to some "nuggets" from him stored in a browser favourites file :confused.: ) ... There's a thread there (link) where he was discussing the methods of calculating hop...

Hi @An Ankoù ... you can read Graham's own review of the 4th edition (fluffy illustrated) of "his" book over there (link) :?: ... no mention of CAMRA reducing hopping rates, but they do seem to have done a bad job in transcribing and missed some (late) additions out entirely, which may be the...

Hi ... actually, I don't think it's as straightforward as that, it may be cleaner, it may be funkier :?: ... depends on the Brett strain(s) ... see there (link). Cheers, PhilB

Hi peebee, OK so it's extract and efficiency you're (really) looking into ... ... and there's the leap, that I don't understand :confused.: ... you seem to have jumped to this assumption that the reason for that decrease in efficiency was the lower DP of the Brown Malt, completely overlooking...

Hi peebee Go on then, I'll bite next ... ... I don't understand what you're getting at there, "converted as low as 80%", conversion of starches to sugars (as tested by an iodine test, at least) is like being pregnant, either they're converted or they're not :?: ... so what are you meaning when...

Hi @531Man I have the BrewDevil and IIRC the C2 is for setting a figure for boil temp. correction ... I doubt you'll need to worry about it in Kent, but if you were to be brewing at altitude then your wort would boil at temps lower than 100C and since the sensor would never reach 100C then the...

Hi @Hop_it ... and the purpose of my post was simply to explain how (and why) consistency for wort correction factor is almost impossible (it is only likely to be possible if you were working in a brewery producing the same wort/beer over and over again, as in a commercial brewery) ... which is...

... but isn't that (almost) inevitable? The whole reason we need a "wort correction factor" is because our refractometers have been calibrated to measure Brix of a simple sugar (probably glucose) solution ... and, by using that wort correction factor calculator, we're calculating a correction...

... hmmm, I think they tried that, but I'm not sure the approach ever worked for Football Hooligans ...

Hi CD When I was researching into making an (American) Rye Pale Ale a while ago I looked at a fair few recipes across the internet and there seemed to be two main approaches used, either ... to use a big slug (30-40% or more of the grainbill) of the base malt as Malted Rye, or ... to use around...

Hi @Stevieboy I've done it, and since moving over to use cornies I've continued doing it it in those ... I currently have a Rye IPA in a corny with a muslin bag full of Citra, Simcoe and Centennial in with it that I'm enjoying :beer1:athumb.. ... personally, I've always put the hops in a...

Hi @London As others have said, you will get there it just takes a little while to get used to them ... and, you may have already worked this out, but it does help if you start consciously thinking about moving your head until you get what you're looking at in focus, at least until it becomes...

... the online one at Brewer's Friend (link), leaving the defaults as is, will give you a fair indication ... if you scroll down and follow the links for calculating the wort correction factor for your refractomer you can see what might be involved in getting a more accurate measurement .. but...

Looking at my notes, I now remember that my recipe was a *******isation of the Meantime London Porter recipe, which already has an incredibly busy grainbill (they say on the labels how it uses a combination of 7 different malts) ... my recipe ended up (including 8 malts) as ... Pale Malt 48%...
