Yeah I actually wanna make something full bodyd with great malt so its refreshing use a bit of rye so the spicy earthyness will dry out ya mouth encouraging to drink more then refresh it with some late addition of galaxy and or vic so as to give nice fruity aroma but keep in touch with tje...

Responce in caps above. Cheers

Well I really like golden ales atm and being new to the ale and home brew scene im still very happy with clean crisp larger styles over way bitter heaps hoppy beers. However the palette is changing. I never tried any of there other series no brews unfortunately. Im sure doing it as a...

So what process would you do in a recipe that states a 0min addition and how do I know what the writer of a recipe was meaning by 0min? If you add the hops at flame out you leave them in for primary? Is it ok to leave em in a hop bag?

Has anyone tried this varietal series release yet for this year? I just picked a 6 pack up at Dan Murphys for 10 bucks as im a member. Its actually quite amazing. Anyone keen on helping me come up with a recipe to make a variant/clone of it?

Additional question. Ive seen where people say 0min means whirlpooling adding the 0min addition and leaving in primary and then theres people that quote 0min as dry hopping the secondary. What is the difference and what yeilds best results?

Ok thats awesome :) Thanks heaps :)

So if the recipe says Flower hops X @ 60 to 30 IBU and X @ 1.5g/L @ 20 and 0 Then I'm obviously just doing the bittering hop to 30 IBU thus not worrying about flower to pellet conversation. With the 20min addition in adding 90% of 1.5g/L (what volume is this? Pre boil post boil? Of current...

Ok this info is awesome guys cheers. I only say seems a lot as ive done one brew with dry hops and it was 15g where as now im looking at doing a recipe which says 1.5g/L So 30g seemed like a lot. To me due lack of experience. The recipe im looking at doing is an AG and an equivalent extract...

Hey guys, if someone said to me use 1.5g/L as late addition and I wss doing an BIAB how do I calculate that? Do I calculate it based on what volume I started with what volume I have at the addition time or the volume I put in the FV or the anticipated yeild volume? If at 20min left I had 27Lt...

Yeah im up in greenvale bro and it was like 5c saturday night and 3c last night and not very hot days. Im sure if your garage is anything like mine itll be sitting around a constant 8-12c I say go for it. Just my opinion. Id do it

I actually have no fkn idea. But I wanna try help out. How good of a seal is your lid on the pot? Not with my brews but the missus and I cook tomato sauses and broths in 50lt batches in the garage in winter. We usually leave them in the garage untill the next night. About 24hr (then again tho...

Yeah kunda what I was getting at with the liquid yeast over dry as comparison to AG over Full Extract, tho with all the points ypu make I see I made a bad comparison. I have 2 batches bottles atm an IPA and dry oatmeal stout about a week away from being carbed I recon. I have 2 golden ales (an...

Im definitely not at the point of trying my own recipes however I like that theres more variety like liquid yeast. Wish I didnt have to wait so long to try the beer :( Really appreciate everyones help :) Cheers

Mmm I like the sound of that. No more choc mint ice cream for desert ay?

Ive done 4 brews with us05 now. 3 which have finished and mostly fermented out 75-80% ive been doing then at room temp which is currently 16-18c after aprox 3 weeks each have tasted quite nice, one thing I noticed to after having done a liquid yeast brew that us05 doesnt create clean crisp...

Hey mate im only a new brewer. Im sure more people will be better able to help you. I made sure I liked the home brew ( I like to refer it to more of a craft beer, tjats what dan Murphys markets it as) I tried alot of craft beers before I knew what I wanted yo make. Now given the time to clean...

You may be right. I thought it was just that it hadnt brewed out yet. (I dont really have any experience, ive now done 5 brews none of which ive drunk yet) Tho yeah the exact beer to which you mentioned is to what I refer. Yeah the process was very fun I just hope its gunna be equally rewarding

Ok so a few hicups but it came out awesome. I refrigerated the grain as I got it crushed at grain and grape and had to keep it healthy 2 days till I used it. After striking I l9st to much temp but I suspended the bag brought the temp up and kep with the mash. I started with 10 less lt in the...
