    First BIAB Pale Ale/IPA Recipe Suggestions w/ Citra/Centennial/Galaxy

    I use a base recipe given to me by my local shop, it's essentially their Sierra Nevada Pale clone base, and just change around the hops. My base additions for smash is as follows- 10 ibu each at 60, 20, and 5, with a 10 minute hop stand of 5 ibu (optional) Dry hop with 1g/L for 4-5 days...

    Heady Topper!

    Hey guys and girls. I just have to share this!! It's absolutely phenomenal. I had been looking at doing a Heady Topper clone for a while, seeing as how hard it is to even get it near the brewery in the US. So after a bit of research, and finding out you can buy direct from Yakima Valley for...

    Berliner Weisse

    That's how I would do it personally, just for that ability to have it quicker over the summer months when it's great after a day's labour

    Berliner Weisse

    Nick! Expect an order for a few packs of the Vermont IPA Yeast coming through very shortly! I don't know how you get this but I'll be sure to order it as I need it from you

    Berliner Weisse

    A method I've seen for this involves souring the wort with lacto only for about 7-8 hours, then boiling it out and fermenting for a couple weeks. They did it on an episode of Brew Dogs in Season 1. I think they had a pretty sizeable amount of lacto on board though with the souring fermentation...

    Fattox's Belgian Session IPA

    I will mate. I'll be pitching this one later today, I had a majorly effed up brew day with the mill drive breaking so I missed OG by 5 points by the end with some adjuncts. I'm curious to see how it comes out though. Ended up with a monster krausen on the starter too in the flask, in a 5 litre...

    Fattox's Belgian Session IPA

    Hey guys, something I've been working on. I was wanting to do something like a Flying Dog Raging *****, but my system simply can't handle a full mash on it with it being something like 46 litre mash volume on a 23 litre batch size and I wanted at least a keg worth. So I took someone's attempt...

    I'm a FU@3ING *****!

    Today's AG **** up - my mill broke. I've literally had it a week and a half, I bought it off a fellow brewer here and had set the grind finer for re-milling some stuff I got at the local shop to a slightly finer grind for my BIAB system. Forgetting this, I started trying to run through a whole...

    Perlic taps. Dimensions

    Perlick 4 lyf haha. I was planning on going all Perlick bar my one QuickDraw tap (new company in the States, I figured I'd try one of theirs and see how it goes as a lot of brewpubs are converting to their taps). Been and had a look already. On the same note though, I have the tap but nothing...

    Dano's All Grain Feral Hop Hog Clone

    I'd be curious to try this recipe myself. The local chains (dannos and 1st choice) both stock it but be buggered if i know how fresh it is (probably goes through a few temp changes in the process of moving) so I will have to try it fresh off the keg instead of bottled for who knows how long...

    Tips for a Stout

    I mashed the above stout for the best part of 2 hours. Came out fantastic! The smoke is forward but then it subdues to a more roasty/chocolatey finish.

    Tips for a Stout

    I did a smoked stout for our local smoked malt mini comp this month, brewed it back in march: 38.8% Maris Otter 38.8% Smoked Malt 6.3% Rye 4.1% Carafa III 3.8% Caraaroma 1.5% Roasted Barley 6.7% Light Dry Extract (because I missed target gravity) I think the trick personally with a stout or...

    I had the Sunshine Coast? brewing version and it was not pleasant at all. First beer I've ever tipped. This might be different though. Does it have a chilli in it?

    Perlic taps. Dimensions

    Good on ya Blair, I've been looking to go down a similar route (TappedBeer on etsy/website) with a 5 tap design, insulated/chilled feed lines and running old school light fittings on either side of a H style pipe system. Hinged setup behind the taps to gain access, that or I will get a size...

    Naming your home brewery

    Mash Monster Brewing Co. is mine - logo in my DP. Had a mate do it up for me. As I own a 3D Printer, I plan on making my taps to hold plastic inserts so I can write in chalk the beer name, but I was actually thinking of having clear inserts, with a label behind it with just the logo set up high...
