Another quick brew

[corby_brewer]

Evening all

Ive got my brother coming down in about four weeks and not wanting to let him drink my FOOLS GOLD, Mrs siv brought me a geordie scottish export kit. i followed the instructions to the letter except i subsitiuded the kit yeast with my favorite SO4. Now this was my second ever kit i brewed and i was quite impressed with it. But this one i want to make that little bit better. So im thinking of dry hopping it with CASCADE so my question is how much should i use.

Thanks

Dave Siv

Personally I dont think cascades would work in a scottish export, if you have them i'd go with 10 - 15g Fuggles for 5 - 7 days :thumb:

I've got the same sort of dilemma, my in-laws are coming to stay with us for a few days over Christmas. No jokes about in-laws, mine are ace, Mrs. Mole drew the short straw as she's got my mother to contend with. :lol:

However, father-in-law drinks Boddington's / John Smith's, so should I throw down a quick kit bitter, or will I only regret it?

You'll regret it if he doesn't like it and you have to drink it
Why not brew an AG session bitter instead something 1.038 ish with 28 IBU, it'll be ready for Christmas :thumb:

Yes, that's what I'd thought, I don't know how long they are staying but if he only drinks 10 pints that leaves me with the other 30

I wasn't planning another brewday this side of Christmas but I will have to check Mrs. Mole's on-call rota and see if she's working next weekend.
