Thought this was an interesting read and has some lagers and styles never tried. 13 Serious Beer Experts Name Their Favorite Lagers For Late-Summer

Thought I'd start up a thread to track my thoughts and ideas on brew day. Yesterday brewed what turned out to be my 22nd AG brew which surprised me a little considering had about 6 months not brewing last year. Anyway, yesterday did a clone of Wunder Lager by Brussels Beer project after...

I've noticed a massive increase in the amount of beers being labelled as hazy ipas, and it's got me thinking after reading another thread about NEIPAs what the point is? I've brewed hazy beers but it's more to do with laziness and lack of skill than want. Is hazy a chance for breweries to be...

Got an email alerting me to this. Apparently 100g makes 135litres of the stuff. Not sure how compares to other VWPs out there but thought I'd share.

Found this on Aldi special buys, might be useful for lifting a heavy BIAB bag and draining.

Gonna brew today, but not sure what to do. I usually make v hoppy pale ales/NEIPAs and have a decent batch of bottles of this style in the fridge and was thinking something a little different. I've been researching making fake lagers without Pilsner malt bit but not sure if can do it. this is...

I've managed to source very well priced co2 so looks like I'm going to take the plunge. Think I'm going to get this, other than somewhere to store it is there anything else on top of this that I desperately need straight away to get going? Cheers. Standard Keg Kit with Deluxe Party Tap

Hi all, got an experimental-ish 12 litre pale ale which I used junga hops for the first time as got them cheap. Used 20g at 60mins, 30g at 0. 52IBU according to brew father. The brew is fermented out, tasted ok when tested for final gravity, but a bit meh. I've got the following hops in the...

I'm struggling a bit more than I thought I would with this lockdown. 2 things really helping me are reading and music. With that in mind, I thought about starting a thread where you recommend 1 song which you think will guarantee the listener ends up with a big smile on there faces. Im hoping to...

I have/expecting delivery of enough grain for 4 ale brews. I bottled one on Saturday and they are in the temp control freezer at 20c carbing up. Trouble is I have the time to brew but not the space to ferment and carb at the same time. Other than buying another heating tube, or the expense of...

I managed to acquire another free under counter fridge a few months back but not had a chance to do anything with it. 8 got to questions I need advise if anyone out there can help. 1. I cleaned it up in the seal around the fridge, star sanned it and then dried as well as I could. I left the...

Hi everyone. I know airlock bubbling doesn't mean everything but just wondering if anyone knows if large primary headspace impacts on activity? I've brewed a beer I've done before with same yeast as before but in a small scale, 12l, in a 23l FV. Yeast pitched yesterday. After 24 hours last time...

So, inspired by @BeerCat thread of wheat beer in a week, and the impending 40th BBQ bash I'm having in 3 weeks, I thought I'd give a quick fermentation brew or 2 a go. I have Voss yeast and temp control so this should assist. However, called the local HBS to order some grain to pick up on way...

I'm lucky to be heading off to visit friends in Perth for a few weeks this weekend. Been looking around on their Aldi, Coles, Woolworths sites at the pale ales and the likes but wondering if anyone had any experience of nice Aussie beers to try out when over there? There's a couple of bottle...

On Tuesday I brewed up what I am hoping will be a nice hoppy, citrus-ey, tropical type NEIPA. Perks of being a teacher is I get all week off with the kids (!!!!!!!) but the mother in law wanted them on Tuesday (weirdo!) so had a full free day - Bonus! Had a nice chilled-out brew day with no...

My mango milkshake experiment has finished on 1.012, and I have 1.5kg of frozen mango chunks to add along with vanilla which is in the vodka as we speak. My question, what, if anything, do I do with the mango before adding? Mixed messages on Google of chucking straight in, putting in vodka...

Hello all. Had a citra milkshake from tiny rebel last weekend and it's stuck in my head. Gonna try @Leon103 recipe as a foundation for the next brew, but then I got thinking about the upcoming Christmas period. I don't like stout or heavy beers, more a pale ale/ipa drinker, so which flavours...

Just wondering if anyone had been yet, or were there tomorrow? I'm heading there tomorrow evening after watching Newcastle in the inevitable bore draw against Brighton (optimistic, i know). Looking forward to trying a few different beers out, might even have a cloudwater if the loan comes...

Anyone on the kveik thread might have seem I had a rye ipa stuck at 1028 somehow using that yeast. Anyways I tried temp raise from about 32 to 38c without success, I then added a 1 litre starter of us05 and a good stir and it's still at 1028. Someone on the kveik thread suggested amalyse, my...
