    Souring With Acids

    Hi all, I had another break from home brewing but have successfully done an all grain blonde and then an IPA in recent weeks. I brewed a BrewDog 'Quench Quake' clone on Sunday but used Wildbrew Philly Sour Yeast. This suggests that Lactic Acid is produced as part of the fermentation so my...

    What is the difference between the temperature of the liquid inside the fv and the outside of the fv itself? Assume you have to adjust for that?

    Leemond Brewery Brewdays

    So it's been two weeks since brewday and there doesn't seem to have been any activity in the airlock for sometime so I took the plunge and took a sample. Unfortunately the wine thief I ordered on amazon was damaged when it arrived to the impatience in me led to me sterilising a ladle instead (a...

    It's the two piece type, so fingers crossed it's escaped out the top. Cheers Slid :thumba: I think fermentation has finished so will be taking a gravity reading shortly. Just trying to work out the best way to take a sample :?:

    So, I have returned from a week away to find the airlock has a cm or so less liquid (VWP/Water solution) in than when I left. The Mrs said she moved the bucket round slightly one day but that was about it. Is it more likely to have been sucked back into the beer or evaporated do we think? It...

    Leemond Brewery Brewdays

    Thanks all for the replies. The brew sat in my fridge for around 9 hours before it cooled to pitching temperature. Checked on it this morning and there is an odd bubble coming from the airlock, albeit with quite a long gap in between. Thankfully its current temperature is just within an...

    Leemond Brewery Brewdays

    A couple of places online... tannin issues were mentioned as was haziness of the beer (which doesn't bother me as long as the taste is right). Great news then, cheers. The brew is currently cooling in my outside fridge as my immersion chiller wasn't doing too much on such a nice day! As said...

    Leemond Brewery Brewdays

    Hi all, As you may have read in my original introduction post I am back on here after quite a lengthy absence. During this time I also didn't get to brew any beer but thankfully I have the time and resources available to me again so today is my first brew day in over 12 months... Despite...

    Fruit Beer Experiment

    Thanks for the replies. I bottled my 22litre batch tonight. I used the BF calculator to work out that the strawberry purée would be enough to prime 10litres of beer according to the amount of sugar in it (according to the back of the packet anyway!) After siphoning the beer onto the purée I...

    Fruit Beer Experiment

    Hi all, So my latest brew is due for bottling over weekend and I am planning on transferring some to a demijohn with some strawberry purée in an effort to create more of a fruit beer. I've read people on here have done something similar with the brand of purée I've bought (made for cocktails)...

    AG Brew Day #9 Raspberry Ale

    :lol: It is always a concern when everyone is complimentary of your beer! Interesting read this as I want to rack off some of my latest brew into a demijohn and strawberry purée. Though now considering frozen strawberries instead :hmm: Glad the beer turned out great :thumb:
