Hello everyone, I’m Ryan and I’ve just joined up after being a frequent visitor, lurking in the shadows for a few months!
I’ve been brewing since 01/07/20. Got the bug after my mate dropped off a couple of bottles of an extract brew he’d done, Juicy IPA I think, it was awesome...so I wanted in! Sold off half of my trainer collection and invested in a Grainfather (halves with said mate),Grainfather fermenter and built myself a Kegerator/Bar. No going back.
Started with a few kits and have now started with my own recipes. First one of my own was Mosaic and Citra IPA, which came out grand. Was meant to be 5.9% but came out 6.7%, though I wasn’t moaning. My second one is/was a Pilsner. Didn’t read up about pitching rates before hand and has now been fermenting 5 weeks to the day. Lot to learn! I’ve made myself a stir plate, so, hopefully I won’t make that mistake again!
Thanks for reading and am looking forward to getting to know people.
