    Corny Keg for Sale

    Hi Guys, So I'll be moving to Tokyo in Feb and plans of building a kegerator here have been permanently put on hold. I bought this corny keg a little while ago - it was used when I bought it, but I haven't touched it. It's made by the Cornelius Co - 18.9litres Looking for...

    New England DIPA Brew Day (BIAB) Cloudwater v13 clone attempt

    I can't remember off the top of my head, but from cold water I think it takes about half an hour or so. We have a massive gas hob in the middle which works pretty well. How long does it take on your burner?

    New England DIPA Brew Day (BIAB) Cloudwater v13 clone attempt

    I made a 2 litre starter. Can't remember the quantity of DME I used to get to a gravity of 1040 (easily found on google). I had it in a mason jar with some tin foil on top. Shake the jar every so often to aerate it, but the leave it for a few hours before you pitch so that the yeast settles to...

    New England DIPA Brew Day (BIAB) Cloudwater v13 clone attempt

    Hey, I meant to post an update. Up until last weekend (2 weeks after bottling) the carbonation still wasn't quite there yet. It didn't quite have as much of a hoppy nose as I was expecting (I'm too used to Cloudwater's insanely delicious DIPAs), and I guess it was a bit much to expect to nail it...

    New England DIPA Brew Day (BIAB) Cloudwater v13 clone attempt

    I upped the temperature to 20C on the 22nd and then again to 21C shortly after the second dry hop as per instructions I've read on dealing with this yeast strain. Second dry hop went as planned on Tuesday 26th. I was meant to cold crash it on the Friday night to be ready for bottling on Sunday...

    New England DIPA Brew Day (BIAB) Cloudwater v13 clone attempt

    Dry hopped earlier this week on Tuesday. Tried taking a gravity reading from the tap at the bottom of my FV and the sample still looked as "sludgy" as it did when I racked to the FV. I put the sample in the fridge to see if cold crashing would cause whatever's was floating around to drop, and...

    Double bagger !

    No reason why you can't! I built myself a hop spider which does the same thing!

    New England DIPA Brew Day (BIAB) Cloudwater v13 clone attempt

    The socks / flip flops was actually my friend who was helping me that day (I swear! :whistle:). I opted for flip flops and no socks :) Expecting FG to end up at 1.016 ish

    New England DIPA Brew Day (BIAB) Cloudwater v13 clone attempt

    Hey Everyone, So I had my brew day on Saturday, hoping to make a clone of one of my favourite beers (Cloudwater’s v13 DIPA). This was done via the BIAB method, which admittedly was a tall order as it was also my first time at BIAB, but I figured go big or go home! I posted the original...

    New England style DIPA (based on Cloudwater v13)

    Ok, so I've bought all the ingredients (full disclosure....not cheap!) and I'm looking to brew this weekend. Looking into adjusting my water and having found my water report from Thames Water and tested my tap water's alkalinity with a salifert test kit, I think I'm on the right lines in terms...

    New England style DIPA (based on Cloudwater v13)

    I've edited the first post to reflect the use of flaked oats now :) As for the dry hop - definitely pellets all the way! I've got a few 5 gallon paint strainer bags that I've used before that I'll be using. Planning on brewing this either next weekend or the weekend after so I'll make a...

    New England style DIPA (based on Cloudwater v13)

    I think I'll change it to flaked oats based on what I've been reading about both this beer and the NE style in general. There's going to be a lot coming from the hops as well as the yeast!

    New England style DIPA (based on Cloudwater v13)

    I'm thinking of doing just that! Splitting my ingredients in half and doing half a brew first to see how it turns out, then making any necessary adjustments before doing the second.

    New England style DIPA (based on Cloudwater v13)

    Can you find CO2 extract in small quantities? I've only been able to see large cans for around £30? Noted re: water profile and mouthfeel. I actually contacted Fourpure a while back as they're near enough to me in SE London and they were kind enough to give me their water report which...

    New England style DIPA (based on Cloudwater v13)

    Or thinking about it - should I be using flaked oats instead? Or use 10% naked and 8% flaked? Cloudwater's head brewer has said that there's definitely 18% oats in there, and I've just found another source which has brewed this recipe and they used flaked oats so I have a feeling it should be...

    New England style DIPA (based on Cloudwater v13)

    It's not a cheap brew by any means!! I'm tempted to buy the ingredients and halve the recipe so I can brew it twice, just in case I mess it up the first time

    New England style DIPA (based on Cloudwater v13)

    Hey everyone, So I've been enamoured with NE style IPAs and DIPAs for the past year and have finally dusted off my brew kit to give it a go myself. I'm a massive fan of Cloudwater and their DIPA series, and I decided to piece together a recipe for their DIPA v13 based on information I’ve...

    Converting AG recipe to Extract - Gamma Ray Clone

    Soooo this reply is long overdue - I basically took over a year off from brewing after having shoulder surgery at the beginning of last year and couldn't really lift or carry anything for a long time. Getting back into it with my first all grain brew in a couple of weeks! Anyway - as for this...
