I do exactly that. Just after making a blonde ale which should be less than 4%, can sit in the garden and knock it back all day. Also have a 6% red citra ipa bottled if i fancy wrecking the house.
I'd really like to make kölsch on a regular basis but I haven't worked out the ins and outs of...
Great advice on here thanks guys. Feel like I'm building up to the challenge of a lager slowly, doing Biermunchers centennial blonde atm! I fancy lagering in a keg so maybe I can afford that setup later in the year
Hi,
Completed my first bottling day and reading up on it beforehand, I was kicking myself for not getting a spigot on the bottling bucket. I used an autosiphon with wand attached as that's what the HBS had in. Aside from a little trouble getting the flow started it went surprisingly well! I did...

I got about 5 weeks to get a brew ready and was hoping to do a blonde ale or something refreshing like a lager. I have temp control and was going to do BIAB or mini mash. Any recipes or pointers for something like this would be greatly appreciated! I do intend to brew lagers eventually but I...
That's exactly what I was thinking, I might buy some extra food grade tubing so I can use the syringe, perhaps just syphon it to be safe this time. Thanks
So I dont have a tap on my FV. What are good options for sampling from an FV which is only half full? I have a lawnmower oil change kit which has a big syringe and clear tubing, my wine thief isnt long enough and actually was very poor at holding any liquid when I sampled post boil. I want to...
