Hi folks
,
My 2nd brew in a month :shock: .
Wanted to try the above kit for a while now, so I've put it on. 1 tin Canadian blonde, 1kg of mixed malt & dextrose & S-04, it performed well in my last brew here.
The OG seemed a little low to me, 1044, maybe it's about right, but I like a beer just over 5%, so I threw a cup of sugar in for good measure :lol: . Wort temp was a little on the high side so I left it to cool for a couple of hours, yeast only just pitched.
Couldn't see anything in the rules about not mentioning any shops, but please remove if I missed that one. I'm always in Leyland, Lancs, there's one on Chapel Brow in Leyland, so I called in there this morning at 9.05am :whistle: :lol: . The shop had plenty of stuff packed in there anyway.
Looking forward to adding this batch with my other one ready for xmas :drink: .
Happy brewing all.

, so I came downstairs to have a nosey at it. The head was going like the clappers thanks to the fast acting S-04 yeast. Here's what it looks like as of 10 mins ago, but at 3am this morning it was as high as the mark towards the right of the FV :clap: :
