    Matt's Brewdays

    I found some time last night to bottle the Dead Pony Club clone and was hoping for some capping success using my new bench bottle capper – as recommended (or similar) by John (Thanks John!) in a previous post. Unfortunately I seem to have drilled lots of holes in various fermentation buckets...

    A packet of Mangrove Jacks M36. I tasted it last night, and I seem to have gotten away with it, I'll dry hop soon and bottle in a week or so and see how it goes!

    Matt's Brewdays

    Evening all, I thought it would be good to keep a running thread going of what I've been brewing, hopefully I can ask silly questions when I get things wrong. This weekend I had the chance to fit a quick few hours of brewing in; wanting to stick with something simple that I had brewed before...

    Question about partial mashing....

    Lots of useful info, thanks everyone. How have I not thought about leaving the mash in the oven to keep temperature - that's a great idea. I always seem to struggle hitting an expected post mash gravity, having said that maybe I'm just useless at testing it properly as post boil always seems...

    Question about partial mashing....

    Hi everyone, I've had a play around in Beersmith (I'm not entirely sure I know what I'm doing!) and have come up with the below. I was intending on still doing a full mash, and then adding the liquid extract at the end. At the moment the recipe calls for building the LME, is this a necessary...

    Question about partial mashing....

    Thanks, it seemed like it made sense to me, but having never done it, maybe there are unforeseen issues I've not thought about.

    Question about partial mashing....

    Hi everyone! I started off by brewing beer kits, these were always no boil versions complete with all hops etc, you just dissolved the can of LME in hot water and then topped up to 19 litres with additional water. I moved straight from here to AG brewing and generally brew small 5 or 8 litre...

    Hi everyone, I'm Matt and I'm new to the forum but not totally new to homebrewing. I've been making beer from kits for about 15 year, and started all grain brewing a year or so ago - mostly with success! I'm here to ask stupid questions and pick up other tips, I also write a blog about my...
