    Cask Condition

    Any one able to provide a good guide on how to cask condition beer. My thoughts are its similar to bottle conditioning. Beer into cask before final gravity is reached, finings in, seal cask, wait a couple of weeks (?)...how far off am I?

    Hydrometer

    I've just smashed my hydrometer (again 🙈) so needing to pick up another. Can you buy digital hydrometer that doesn't sit in the fermenter. I like the idea of the Tilt but I have 3 or 4 fermenters on at one time so don't like the idea of having 3 or 4 Tilts! Any suggestions?

    RO Filters

    who uses one? Looking at getting one so I can have full control over my water. Have seen a 3 stage filter from vyair for £35 but I have a feeling it will take hooooooours to get enough water! Just wondering what people do to gather clean water.

    Raspberry Pale

    Looking to brew a raspberry pale ale similar to Fierce Beers, Cranachan Killer. This seems to be a bit of a niche in that the majority of raspberry beers I have seen tend to be wheat beers. Keen on going trying to bring a slight biscuity taste from the malt and a small amount of lactose to...

    Equipment - PID Control Panels

    Anyone added these to their set up? Upgrading to larger kit and have the option to add a control system. Cost of an all inclusive control system is pretty steep, wondering what others are using. Have seen a version from Einbrew which looks like a decent piece of kit Cheers

    Problem?

    So I brewed an APA on Monday, checked to see how it was getting on this morning and my sample had a very strong orangey, almost marmalade type smell to it. I've never had this before, could this be a problem with the yeast (underpitched?). It seems to be fermenting ok and has come down a...
