    R.I.P Bradley Lowery

    He can finally rest in peice now, I can't even begin to imagine how hard he had to fight everyday. No child should ever have to suffer like that. Hopefully the money will enable researchers to progress on curing this and the many other illnesses. RIP Bradley

    BIAB No.1 - Brew UK Saison

    Interesting! Did you go full volume from the get go (if so how many lifers), or did you mash with 2.5L x 5.7kg or what ever the grains were. After 30mins with my wort chiller I got it to 23' and it would not Budge!!

    Does anyone else sit in the office thinking about brewing and beer?

    So true - well almost home time for me. Going to tuck into a nice mosaic IPA this evening. Does anyone have a beer bods subscription? They send you a box of 12 beers and an email each week about a beer to get stuck into. Well worth the money.
