Good day Brewers and Brewster's, I've brewed a Centennial Blonde for the first time and it's completely fermented out in just under 3 days. I've dumped the dead yeast and trub; now I need to decide what conditioning to do. 1) Treat it like an American IPA, keg it and carbonate at 12 PSI for a...

As a Plaato keg owner I was looking for a way to display the levels on the flat screen TV my mate gave me for the Brewing Garage. Web searches brought up a few suggestions, some attractive and some more geared towards commercial options. After some Facebook recommendations I settled on...

Good day Brewers, Brewsters and any Enbies, I'm looking to brew my "I see your Schwarzbier is bigger than mine" recipe for the first time and after some advice. I've had good results when adding dark grains for black IPA to the grist just before spargeing, but the recipe this is based on...

Monday 23rd August 2021 07:34 Wake up - Think of everything I could do to get ahead on the brew day. Spend 15 minutes procrastinating and fall asleep. Five Points Best 09:29 I recirculate 10 litres boiling water through the recirc pipe, whirlpool arm, CFC and measure water additions. I rub...

Just sharing my Pilsner Recipe. It's a perfect summer beer for people who don't drink "craft", but also a damned fine beer, which should impress beer nerds alike. It's unfined, but that's because I forgot to add the brausol and it's pretty clear after the 2 weeks in the kegerator (after 4...

Hello brewers and brewsters I've just finished reading Craft: An Argument: Why the term 'Craft Beer' is completely undefinable, hopelessly misunderstood and absolutely essential by Pete Brown. It's not the longest of books at 209 pages, but definitely worth a read if you're interested in the...

Hello, When I moved to kegging I purchased the Grainfather Pressure Transfer kit, only to find that the out tube at the bottom wouldn't fit standard 10mm beer line...

Has anyone got a successful tried and tested clone of Northern Monk's Faith please? I'm also asking Google, bit thought I'd check. Got the Pint365 working and thought it'd be nice to try it next. Thank you

Hello, I've updated the pump on my Grainfather to a Blichmann Riptide. I'd like to remove it after brewing for thorough cleaning and tidying up. Does anyone know of any connection/valve or a device I can put the in the hose, which will stop the fluid draining out? Thank you for any help...

Forum brains - I done got a detailed water report done, but it don't all line up proper with Brewfather. Help me Obi Won Kenobi - you're not my only hope, but you'll save me spamming it in further forums. Also, you'll have bragging rights, "I helped a dumbass make better beer today" it'll make...

I attended a Fringe event from the Cloudwater Friends and Family festivities last night at the Northern Monk Refectory in Manchester. The guys from the Malt Miller were there and some representatives from White Labs. As a result I'm at work a delicate, fragile, flower of a man. What's...

Dear beer aficionados I've purchased the Malt Miller's Premium Landlord Clone AG kit. I love it on draught, but don't think it's half as delicious in bottles. I'd welcome people's opinions on what to do with it when fermentation's over as I know that people recommend conditioning in the bottle...

Hello folks, My next brew will be a Bells Two Hearted Ale Clone - I've not used "WLP4040 Midwestern Ale Yeast" before and wanted to know of anyone's experiences using it. The recipe calls for pitch at 18°c, ferment at 20°c for a week, Dry Hop 100g Centennial "Allow two hearted clone to stay...

Good morning folkses Do you think the attached water report is suitable (using the averages) for water treatment? Or is it worth getting a professional report done? Any recommendations gratefully received. Many thanks.

Hello folks, I hear people use these kits in a variety of fashions, glycol solutions in buckets housed in feezers etc. How do you use yours? How effective is it? Does it work with an inkbird? I'm looking to invest in one and want to hear about the best most effective ways of using them. Many...

I took a break from brewing 'cause when we moved I lost the brew space. As a result when we moved again and I gained some brew space I thought I'd use up the old hops and grain from 2013.... It only cost me some maris otter and a yeast (FM11 Heathery Heights) so I made the following recipe...

Has anyone used a hop called Vanguard? and if so where did you manage to find it in the UK? I'm looking at a Brooklyn Lager clone and I can't find it. I can use substitutes, it's no bother, but I couldn't see any threads about it so thought I'd start one.

I've looked through the existing hop tea posts and can't find the answers soooo.... I'm using my shiny new SS Conical fermenter and cold crashing seemingly isn't an option, it seems to retain the yeasts heat so well I could ferment outside! So to cut down on extra particulates and because it's...
