Do you have the recipe up somewhere Tony? That beer sounds and looks like an inspired creation that I want to recreated...

I had never tried to make a CAP before but always wanted to and thought it would be brilliant if I could nail it first shot. Unfortunately, I didn't nail it. This beer was intended to be crisp and hoppy with a sweet corn character to the malt simular to Grolsch but bigger in alcohol and hop...

Hi guys, Thanks to everyone, especially Rook, for making the weekend such a blast. The beers were great and your carpet repels chunks, Rook :icon_vomit: and was a was a good place to get some shut eye. Just as well Kleiny didn't get any of those Mexican Doritos down my gob. The tasting has...

Would be good to hear back on how cool you get it, Andrew. I want to do something simular - At the moment, I use a plate chiller immersed in ice water. It gets the wort to ale temperatures but needs to go in the fridge overnight if I'm making a lager and want to pitch colder than about 16...

I haven't done one of these before but have already bottled 26 plastic bottles of American Pilsener. There ain't no more. How many punters got over the line in the last swap?

This is my Bohemian Pilsener, double-decocted and rich but balanced (47 IBU).

Looks like Chris made a brew with too many opportunistic stick figures looking up the skirt of adjacent stick figures?

I have had a simular experience with BeerSmith too. This beer is going to have 5% pale crystal, 2% CaraAroma [350ebc], 7% CaraMunich II [120ebc], and 86% Maris Otter. It looks very dark brown on BeerSmith. :(

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone knows what the EBC is for Bairds pale crystal malt is. There's going to be a fair bit of it in my IPA and it already looks very dark, according to BeerSmith... Has anyone used it before and what sort of character did it lend to your brew if so? Cheers, Ian.

tHANKS jOHNNO I will find out tonight when I get access to a car and reply then as to when I will be able to visit your brewery. Are you sure you don't want any of my malt? I'd bring a beer but it's all fermenting or in a keg - a commercial one will have to suffice. Message me with your...

I'm trying to make a Cooper Pale Ale clone over Easter but can't find a small enough quantity of Barrett Burston pale malt (5kg). All the retailers seem to carry JWM, which tastes different to my palate. I have Bairds Maris Otter pale ale malt to swap or Weyermann's pils malt if anyone can...

Made a German Pils with all NZ Hallertauer flowers that was simply devine. Have tried a few Nelson Sauvin pilsners of late and they have also been first class. "B" Saaz out of NZ was another in my last batch that went down a treat: very citrussy and pungent like Cascade but not quite the same...

I ended up puttin 3 packets in ($4.50 ea) when you count the first packet that I blatantly abused... The wort tasted fantastic and with this much yeast in, am hoping it will ferment out quite fast - the brew has 500g of Leatherwood hoeny, which all yeasts tend to enjoy.

Wow! I was lucky to have gotten away with it starting at all considering its upper limits from their website. Didn't think to check online about it at the time but have learned my lesson.

I made a beer on Friday with Saflager 34/70 for the first time (have used the S-23 before with no problems). The trouble began when I rehydrated the yeast in 39 degree water --this has not been a problem with other yeasts and I find they take off in a far shorter time frame. This one did...

Thanks for the in put, guys. I had some more last night and weened the g/f on it and she doesn't mind it. Hmmmm.... :chug: There is still some use for this pseudo Belgian if they all decide to have a get together before the housewarming. The Black rock cans have worked well for me in the...

27. Brewmeister70 (Croydon) 1x Weyermann prem. pilsner, 1x Bairds Maris Otter

Howdy all, I made a beer using a couple of Black Rock cans, some crystal malt, extra hops and finally, 500ml of honey. While making the beer, I had a few (as you do) and decided that a quick blast in the microwave would be enough to pasteurize the honey (both cans were steeped for 30mins in...
