    Razorback IPA

    Hi folks. Mine has been fermenting away for the last two days, but I wanted to query the smell emanating from the fv. I think it's quite sharp, almost grapefruit, moreso than any other previous fermentation I've experienced. My wife however thinks it's like cat sick or rotten eggs and wants it...

    The sweetness has now rounded off to a more fruity, caramel aspect, but it's light drinking and very nice now 👌

    Ended up syphoning back into the demijohn as the corks were standing proud of the bottles (though still sealed). Airlock refitted and now its in the garage to cool, degas and mature for a whole longer before bottling again.

    Update...... Well it's closer to a Belgian beer than a Dunkel! Very much like Leffe Bruin. Much so, as its 6.2%. 7 weeks old now. Quite pleased with it, though I could've diluted it by another litre methinks to tame the sweetness. An experiment turned good 👍😁

    Best place to buy mixed cases of beer online?

    Check out Williams Bros for their beer. Some of the best beer I've had and they also do some with additional ingredients such as pine, elderflower or gooseberries. I was skeptical but it's well worth a try. They also offer your big standard ipa, lager, stout etc. I'll get from them again...

    I forgot to measure the FG of my mead, so I poured some into the trial jar. The cork came out with quite a pop; it's still carbonated! Argh! It wasn't like that at bottling time. Tastes fine don't think it's contaminated. All bottles popped. Tempted to syphon back into the demijohn and leave it...

    Mead bottled at 10 weeks. Tried it compared to a bought bottle. Mine is lighter, but will apparently darken over months. Its light and sweet. Nice overall, but the bought one is more strongly honey flavoured. Will use a blossom honey next time instead of cheap tesco stuff. Very happy with the...

    Electric guitar for a beginner?

    Have a look on gear 4 music or thomann. You can get beginner packages (amp, tuner. Book etc.). Won't bust the bank should he lose interest

    Nog finished at 1008, which makes it 5.6%. Somewhat stronger than expected. Maybe I shouldn't have added the dextrose, but the OG was low..... Trial jar tastes good though👍

    Brew No. 14 23 litres of Woodfordes Nog. OG only came out at 1040 and the packaging said to expect a FG of 1014, so that would've ended up at 3.8% out of the expected 4.5%🤷‍♂️. Therefore I added 500g of dextrose to get it up to 1050, so that should see it to 4.8% 👍
