Currently have an Enigma/Galaxy pale ale fermenting away, just did the dry hop. First time using Enigma so that's new territory (recipe below). Then after that I've got my Isolation Pale which I'll brew twice but one I'll ferment with US05 and the other London Fog Ale, keen to see what...

Yeah, have to agree! I did a hazy pale with very little adjuncts but the London Fog (and a light biotransformation dry hop) kept it ridiculously juicy from start to the end of the keg, was a great beer, just wasn't a big fan of the Hort 4337 that I used in it.

Your recipe software should give you a number for the colour but for that batch size you should be sitting around 11-12 EBC (depending on the brand of the malts) which should be good! I'd suggest you double the whirlpool/hopstand additions but your target IBU's sound about right (the perceived...

If the floating dip tube and that ebay SS filter had a baby.. we might be on to something! ;)

Can you share a little more info, eg. batch size, colour etc.,

I used BrewersFriend for a while but have now moved over to BrewFather, it's much nicer, I've ponied up for the subscription! I still use some of the BF calculators etc., which are super handy but for recipe/brewing I think BrewFather is a much stronger product..

Dunno what to say, I mean I have found the tool can slip a little if things are REALLY tight but generally speaking I've not had any problems with it.. pull the rubber taught enough and pinch it along with the handle so it can't move and with the right amount of torque it should loosen. Did you...

I recently switched the carb caps over from the SS ones to the plastic ones, dunno why, just did. Anyway, one of the plastic ones leaks unless I get a pair of pliers out and tighten it right down, never had a problem with the SS ones so I'll swap them back for the next brew. I was under the...

Take a sample at transfer and measure your OG then (it doesn't have to be immediately after the boil, it can be anytime between then and pitching. You need to capture information like this..

I've got two FZ's, both have hairline fracture marks that run vertically all around the neck - should I follow this up with you guys? I got these when first released, they still hold pressure but if they're going to explode with beer in them one day then I'm concerned..

Your link is a bit broken, fixed it for you here..

This is the result I get with London Fog Ale.. IMG_20191011_183500_803 by Schikitar posted 14/2/20 at 12:53 PM

Just shift your 60 min addition to 45 mins and anything 15 minutes and under goes straight to the cube hop (transferring your wort anywhere between 80-85 degrees).. simple!

Thought I previously had a thread on this but can't locate it. Anyway, I'll shortcut my takeaways; 1. If wanting to make a gluten-free beer then I can confidently recommend TwoBays 'malts' as above (and their brew packs) - https://www.twobays.beer/collections/malts - you will need a decent...

I get onion from a number of hops, I think some people are a lot more sensitive to it than I am, which sucks for me. What do you think of honey malt?

Whitelabs London Fog Ale will give you the result you are looking for, that and a dry hop charge right at the start of fermentation.. just remember with NEIPA's there is an dramatic increase in perceived bitterness, so I usually target half the IBUs I actually want in the recipe (20 IBUs tastes...

I like this analogy and it's good advice! I'm going to admit that the last brew I did I mixed almost equal amounts of MO with pilsner (a little more MO) but I didn't even consider the implications - I just wanted to get some body/breadiness into a lighter style hazy pale without making the malt...

Got a Brewzilla for xmas so just trying to decide what to brew on it, was thinking of my tried and tested Oatmeal XPA.. I also need to do some prep this year for a wedding next January where the brides (not a typo) have asked me to provide some summer brews for the reception, so probably need to...

Correct, thankyou. ;)

Triggered and off topic, but.. soda water and an appropriately flavoured garnish is all you need for a good gin.. ;)
