Reeeeeeet so turned up at @Manxnorton sarnies in tow at around 9:30am to see the GF and sparge water all prepped ready to roll. Massive 9kg + grain bill for this. Everything kicked off rosy all temps met, mash in temp steady at 65 degrees and after fuelling up with daft crack, all english...
He'll make that fee back in shirt sales in the 2/3 year he is at Juventus then advertising, sporting rights etc will lump it up even more. Steal in commercial terms. Read somewhere they've already flogged a million Ronaldo tops at 70 quid a pop. Not sure if it's true or not but wouldn't surprise me
Me and @Manxnorton have brewed together a couple of times. Good laugh which often veers into the ridiculous haha!
Brew alone mainly but every day myself and Bri and another lad Andy are swapping ideas, tips and pointers on a whatsapp group.
All good crack :)
Yeah I'm thinking get it it and done this weekend and then bottled asap t can age and carb up in the bottles? or may even leave it in the FV too age after ferm add a little more toffee/Caramel (as a few people have mentioned there isn't much kick) then bottle a couple weeks before we set off :D
Do you reckon it would be palatable after only 2months if I get it done this weekend fermented then bottled?
I'm thinking of below to upscale it to a 19/20 litre batch
19L 100% Organic Apple Juice
1.250Kg Honey
Water to top
1 pack yeast of your choice. Popular choices are Montrachet...
Morning all!
I have a fishing trip coming up early august and a few of the lads drink Cider.
I'm thinking of surprising them with a nice big batch of toffee apple to help wash down the BBQ on a night time.
I have done a fair few All grain homebrews so far but never ventured into cider...
I tried a similar on ein the Newcastle Tap last week called ThaIPA.
I was expecting a lovely hit off the lime leaves and was disappointed. This recipe looks decent though :)
Perfect aye I thought around the 100g mark like just knackered and I just dropped my 30 litre bucket all over the kitchen floor full of sanitiser hahaha
I wish! Too tight this year with arrival of second snot machine but next year I'm there :) All the lads are going too which makes it even worse seeing there facebook posts etc
