After a discussion on a different thread. I was wondering how it came to be that we use German and American terms or brewing in the U.K. As an example, why do we use Krausen, instead of the traditional brewing term, Barm? Why whirlpool, vorlauf or lauter? I found a few articles on old...

I remember the old days when I could constantly find interesting web sites to look at for hours. I can honestly say I now use about 7 (max). Open to suggestions for interesting things to do on the internet...

I've decided to have a week or two off the beer. Any suggestions on different drinks to try when avoiding alcohol? (I'm not a big tea drinker and already drink lots of water)

Does anyone else have to do courses related to your job? I can't believe I am the only one up at 00:30 writing nonsensical essays about wrists and MRIs. I'm fed up of this - wish I'd chosen a profession without this added nonsense! :doh:

..when you're just about to add the priming sugar to your batch and start bottling and you realise that you have no caps. Never been so relieved.

Any ideas re a starting point for a seaweed beer? Tried Kelpie years ago and it was a great beer. I've read it's similar to a Gose beer. Anyone tried one?

Hi Made a black ipa on Sunday. Og1060. Pitched the ringwood 1187 liquid yeast and 48 hours later there is still little activity from the airlock - maybe a few glugs every 3 mins. I have read that air lock activity doesn't necessarily correlate to fermentation but I'm getting nervous and...

Every year, myself and a few friends have a weekend away, do a brewery tour and have generally good night out. Last year we did the Wild Horse Brewery in Llandudno. Any suggestions for good brewery tours? They live in Liverpool and I live in Essex.

I've just bought a grainfather and as part of the deal I got a free AG Hobgoblin Ruby Ale kit. Great I thought, however I better actually taste the beer I will be brewing. I bought a bottle yesterday and found it to be a bit sweet for my liking. So I was wondwering, what modifications to the...
