Process

[Monkeybeer]

I have been brewing beer kits for about 6 months but I quite fancy doing it how the big breweries do, john smiths etc (one of my favorite beers).

Can anyone explain the process to me?

I like John Smiths as well, I would love to make a beer like that.

Do you rekon you can get the creamy head as well my beers always end up dead fizy but no head which is realy anoyin

 

[Monkeybeer]

I can't be bothered with bottling so I just drink it straight from the fermentation bucket therefore it's never fizzy. I done a few in some volvic bottles once but it blew the lids off and made a bit of a mess.

Ah, apologies. I just pushed the new thread button, i dont know how it ended up in the wine area.

perhaps one of the moderators could move it for me?

Any thoughts on the brewing process Chippy_Tea, i would like to know how it all works?

Thats a bit snotty init, do wine brewers look down on beer brewers then or sumit.

Maybe it's because a question about beer would get more views by beer makers if it was in the beer section. Being snotty has nothing to do with it.

Seems like those who make wine don't want to help the beer brewers, we was only asking. He didn't have to be so abrupt.

 

[Chippy_Tea]

Abrupt, I suggested asking in the appropriate forum where it is likely to get a better answer than here, how you can think that is abrupt is beyond me.

 

[Monkeybeer]

I'll ask again later but i thought it would have been better for a moderator to move it, rather than have duplication.

I'll leave it for a bit to see if it gets moved first.

I moved this thread to the beer section.

Can no-one help me then?

This is a good detailed guide.

It may sound a little complicated but most people who try AG never go back.

Just followed that link, it's a bit old, anything from this decade.

Look at john palmers book free on the tinternet. Google be your friend.

 

[Stevelmu]

it's 6 years old, what do you think has changed in the last 6 years?

Trends and recipes change, the process doesn't.

Look at john palmers book free on the tinternet. Google be your friend.

But the first reply on that thread by someone called Aleman says Plamer got it wrong

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

Why would you want to even contemplate such a thing?
