I bought two floating dip tube devices, as I’m finding my beer is a bit cloudy from the keg. The trouble is, it’s very difficult to fit the silicone hose over the outlet tube inside the keg, as the fit is very tight. Even fitting the hose whilst the outlet tube is not in the keg is very...

I moved from bottles to corny kegs a few months ago, and I’ve noticed the beer clarity is worse in kegs than it was in bottles. So I wondered what routine my fellow all-grain brewers use to arrive at clear beer? All I do at present is throw in a Protofloc tablet 15 minutes before the end of...

I had a few bottles of Brewdog Punk IPA this weekend, and I love the taste. The only problem is, it's 5.6% and I prefer lower ABV beers, around 4-4.5%. I found a recipe on Beersmith, but it's even higher at 6.4%. My question is, can I just brew it with less grain, without significantly...
