Amazing! Thankyou so much, the recipe says it should end up about 3.8% so good to know I won't be far off

Hey all, I got a homebrew book for Xmas and have tried out one of the recipes for strawberry beer (I've scaled it down from 5gal to 1gal to trial it first) The recipe calls for 700g of strawberries to be added on day 4 of fermentation. After straining and mashing all the liquid from the...

I had suspected the coconut might be the factor here, I've put fruit in my brews before but never coconut. Would make a lot of sense esp as I used a protofloc tablet which might've caused the grain sediment to bind up with the coconut. Either way I don't mind too much, I've taken 12 months...

I do like a milk stout that's the problem! But thanks, am trying different grain bills/temps etc to try and get there

Wow sorry haven't been active for last few days! Lots of replies here so... It's one of the sites in Meersbrook Park, Norton Lees. It's the bigger end of the scale at 300 sq metres. True, once I get some of the more basic techniques down I'll try my hand at beer again.
