May Brew and Swap - Saison

[Broken Toe]

My Saison is not my finest attempt, it's under carbonated

Mine is pretty much perfect...

Crack a few open, add a bit more sugar and give it a shake

@samale make sure you take a video when doing it

Only putting the cry on, the Saison should be ok. Especially for the boys who drink their beer at room temperature @Hazelwood Brewery

Only if it’s a cask ale

Actually many of my bottled beers are carbonated like cask ales!

Yeah, a spoon of icing sugar is best

Yes! In my early days of brewing I bottled some cider from King Keg. The cider was carbonated to a fairly low level given it was in a King Keg but I wanted more effervescence. I filled some bottles with cider (luckily these were flip-tops) and then through a funnel I tipped a spoon of finely ground glucose powder. All was great for about 3 seconds and then I learned all about nucleation! As these were flip-top bottles I was able to quickly seal them up just as Vesuvius was launching up the neck.

Just checking out my Saison
Carbonation is getting to the correct level, looking forward to the feedback

@Alastair70
John is to send his Saison to me, I already had this beer last week. It's no big deal but if anyone wants to swap.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Don’t want another one of those eh?

Oh I never sold it. John's beer is a fantastic example of the style

 

[Alastair70]

I dont think anyone has posted out yet. So if
@Donegal john sends your beer to @AJA
@AJA sends you the beer he would have sent to me, then
I’ll take one of yours and everything works out.

Sound ok with all involved?

 

[AJA]

Fine with me

 

[Donegal john]

Fekk it I’m pulling out

Hazelwood and I still stand as originally planned.
