I got given some of the blood orange one, very strong and it may have been an incorrect dosage rate but still had an artificial flavour to my palette. I would take my experience with a grain of salt though because I only had half a dozen or so goes at spiking beer samples with it before I...

Ester expression would my first thought, and cling wrap is perfect to open ferment at home. If you are looking to capture wild yeast via open fermentation I would do so with a reasonably small batch first, maybe a litre or so (or even less) and then you'd probably want to test it for desirable...

Tips to shorten brew day/factor in the family... -Brew EARLY in the morning (or late at night once the dinner/bath/bed routine is done) -You can do a short mash if you're brewing a lower abv beer and mashing high (70-72c) -No boil is a thing but I always get a kind of grainy flavour, not a...

Not long now until entries close for the HUB comp (14th of June), lots of great prizes on offer!

Long shot here, but I used to have a Blood Orange Dark farmhouse Saison recipe (99% sure supplied by Shawn Sherlock somewhere online), but I can't find it anywhere on my laptop and suspect it was lost in the great hard drive crash of 2016. I have an altered hard copy where I'd omitted the blood...

Another vote for M42, probably my favourite dried yeast. Great in APA, stout, RIS, and currently drinking a brown ale...delicious. Can't wait to try this yeast in an IPA.

10L should be no problems, and then the yeast cake from this 10L batch would be perfect for a RIS...

Looks like some condensation in the flask so it'd be safe to say there's activity, can't say I've ever noticed 1187 to be darker in a starter... What size batch are you pitching into? I love 1187 so would have no problems pitching into well oxygenated wort and fermenting at 20c.

I was wondering how long the left one had been growing, you have the patience of a monk.

Interesting cacti you have in the background.... Hop kabinet2000 is pretty cool too

Oh and add some fans in there if you haven't already, circulates so much better than the underperforming one it comes with.

Left hand side when you open the door, looks like a grill. Cover pulls off easily, replacement probe costs~$20 from memory.

The last time I spoke to Anthony (owns the brew shop at Tamworth) he said he was looking to get one going, meeting up once a month... As far as I know though he hasn't gone any further with it. He said any info will go up on the Tru brew Facebook page, I'll stop in during the week to see if...

Another Tarantino gem (Bowie, music by Moroder, Cat people being a strangely ok movie)

I would kill (metaphorically) for a night where Tarantino was DJ and put on his favourite jams
