Long story short, I've got a mate due to return from a year travelling. To mark his return I'm brewing up a keg for a welcome home party. I have a few ideas for a bitter recipe but haven't had the chance to brew them up before so before i start experimenting I'd like to know if you have any...

Is the boiler still available? I've sent a pm. Cheers

Looks good. Fuggles and kent goldings are listed if you scroll to the right along with others.

Thanks for the replies. That's right, there's around 1kg of crystal in the recipe I used if I recall so there's certainly enough in there! I used notty too and was surprised how low it attenuated so I was hoping I wouldn't get too much cloying sweetness although that is the case haha. Looks like...

I brewed a Sarah Hughes ruby mild in October and transferred to bottles and a keg. At first I thought it wouldn't be too sweet as it over attenuated finishing around 10 gravity points lower than expected so it's nudging over 7%. In the keg the beer seems far too sweet and not particularly...

Just wondering if anyone has a good tried and tested AG dunkel recipe out there or any tips to make a decent one? I've tried both Mahou Negra and Erdinger Dunkel and really enjoyed them in the past so would love to make a batch of my own. Cheers :cheers:

i can vouch for the London porter kit, i made it for last Christmas before switching to AG and have to say it was a great pint

I've seen other people on here salvage most of their beer by siphoning the beer under the infection off and re bottling/kegging. If it tastes ok it may be worth keeping in mind if its worth the risk to you.

Mine were ready fairly soon although I like to drink my beers young (because I can't wait to try them haha). As mine were pretty hoppy I think drinking them younger preserved more of their hop aroma too which i was more than happy with. They would've been ready sooner had I used a more...

Thats why I've brewed it now to age nicely for Xmas, I'm in 2 minds whether to bottle or barrel it though.

Have you thought about a SMaSH brew? Around 4-5kg of Marris Otter (possibly a splash of wheat malt for head retention) depending on your prefered strength and whichever hop takes your fancy? Personally id go for the EKG. I made 2 for my first all grains (using citra and cascade) and have to say...

The recipe i used was: 5100g Marris Otter 900g Crystal mash at 67 degrees 31g fuggles at 60 mins 30g goldings at 60 mins 20g fuggles at 10 mins Nottingham yeast I only used this recipe this morning for ag#5 so i cant comment on how good the beer is yet but going by other peoples experience...

I've just put on a srah hughes dark ruby and have high hopes for it, if you want the recipe i'd be more than happy to post it. Next week somepoint i'll be putting this recipe on:- http://perfectpint.blogspot.co.uk/2011/ ... sting.html (this isn't my blog nor my recipe, however the poster has...

Pretty much bang on what i'm looking for regarding a dark mild recipe i hope to make this week then. I realised i needed some other grains so i've taken the plunge and ordered a pack of the yeast too. Thanks again for the info, really appreciated. :thumb:

Thanks for the heads up though, i'm planing on getting at least a couple of brews out of it when i finally cave into buying it. I've never used liquid yeasts so i hope the price is justified in the final product!

thanks all for the feedback. Mike, i would've ordered but the £8 price and £6 delivery has definitely put me off haha, ill have to wait for it to come into stock and buy it along with my next malt order

there doesn't seem to be a quick way around it but the long way round certainly makes some great treats, i made a large batch of around 70 a couple of months ago and they're just running out so time well spent i think!

hi guys, i have just found a dark mild recipe online that i would love to try that calls for the wyeast 1318 london yeast, it will be the first time i have used a liquid yeast so im pretty apprehensive. ive had a look around and every shop ive looked on so far has sold out of it so it looks...

cheers for clearing that up duncs, the hops go nowhere near the grain if im planning on making any treats so no issues there

hi guys, i made some treats for my dog brewday before last which are about to run out (she goes mad for them), im currently brewing up a stout and was planning on using the grains for another batch of treats. is anyone aware of any reasons why dogs couldn't have roasted grains? (my recipe...
