Hi all, Due to Brexit I'll be stuck in the Cambridge area for the the coming 4 months (Jan-Apr) as my company will need to mitigate all logistical risks where possible. So this is not about a Brexit discussion, the only fact is that I'll be stuck in/around Cambridge and will probably be needing...

Hi all, I stumbled across some of the Wychwood Hobgoblin bottles here in the Netherlands. To be honest, those bottles are absolutely gorgeous. That's why I set my mind on emptying some of these. Unfortunately I'm not that much of an UK ale drinker, so I'm not sure if I'll like the beer. So...

Hi all, I brewed some brewferm kits (triple with original yeast and diabolo with cultured la chouffe yeast). What should I do to condition these? I was hoping to have them ready for Christmas, and I figure the 2+2+2 that I regularly read means 2 weeks of fermenting, 2 weeks on room temp, 2...

Hi all, Two of my favorite beers are la Chouffe and Delirium tremens which I suspect might use the same yeast strain. I find a couple of AG recipes on here that should come near la Chouffe blonde, but besides the usual "yes it tastes nice" result comment I don't really find anything that says...

Agreed, let's not make anything personal. It's just a healthy discussion. Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, we don't need to agree and it also doesn’t anyone to explain himself. However, for the sake of the discussion I'm very interested in something; Can you guys give 3 pros...

Hi all, Although I'm brewing a kit I threw this in the general beer discussion section anyway, as it's not really limited to kit brewing. As some might know I started some la Chouffe cultures in the lab, so I ended up with some beautiful yeast suspensions. I was to planning to use one for my...

Hi all, As I'm an avid Weißbier drinker I have a steady supply of German pear shaped pint bottles. As I'm currently brewing up some triple (and later some Belgian strong ales), I was wondering if these bottles would be able to handle the pressure of carbonated Belgian beers. I guess...

Hi all, I'm fairly new to brewing and one of the kits I bought was a muntons belgian style ale kit. As it's for 21 liters, it's a fairly expensive kit (two cans). http://www.muntonshomebrew.com/belgian-style-ale/ It's made with "Saison" yeast blabla, but now (of course after buying...

Hi all, I just started my first brewferm kit brew (a triple). However, I threw in a couple bottles of rather cold water which brought my brew to about 15*C (I'll be fermenting at ~17-19 degrees). From my experience with yeasts I would say this shouldn't matter and would actually...

Hi all, There's a question that has bugging me for quite a while, being from the other side of the North Sea and this forum seems to be the perfect media to sort it. I really enjoy a good head on my beer, whether it's a simple pilsener or a special brew, it has to have a decent head. In...

Hi all, I'm new to the brewing thing and I'm looking to score some tips and tricks on what to buy first. For brewing itself I was already planning to buy one of the cheaper(roughly 60 quid) starting kits containing; Plastic 30 liter brewing bucket with tap Plastic fermentation bucket 30...

Hello Chaps, I'm new to the brewing stuffs. I attempted two brews of which one succeeded (during my study, brewing hefeweizen) and later a belgian stronge blonde, which unfortunately somehow cluttered with green mold. About myself, I'm not british, though I decided to register myself here...
