Does anyone else use this app? I heard about on the brewing TV podcast. I've made several recipes from it. Was wondering if anyone else had made any good brews from it. I like the thinly veiled clones "Innkeeper" read Timmy Taylor Landlord. Just enjoying a "caribou slobber". If you live in the US you can order the recipe packs straight from Northen brewer with the right yeast etc. Wish someone would do that here, I hate collecting up everything needed to brew.

Plenty of places do recipe packs in the UK, where are you from?

I've seen the Maltmiller packs and Brew UK, thing I like about the NB range is the sheer variety. Most UK based company's only seem to do ale packs, which is great but a sack of MO and a few other grains and you can make most ale recipes. I would like to be able to make Saisons, Belgian ales, Sours etc without having to source all the specialty ingredients.

Ah, I see :)

Sadly our country pretty much sucks for speciality ingredients, hahah. we have to make do!

 

[Asalpaws]

That's true. The flip side is I'm amazed how many different beers can be made with just a big sack of pale malt, goldings and a few other bits!

absolutely, you should never under appreciate a simple recipe too. some stuff may have a long list of ingredients, but it's hard to beat a typical ale with pale, crystal, fuggles and goldings and not much else
