Any time.

I advise any new partial masher to try this one off the bat. Absolute tastyiest brew ever. Mine was done and dusted, in under two weeks, with a litle help from HWMBO, it was gone in a wink of an eye. Fabulous brew........why would you go All Grain. :D

Get educated !!

Thats a hell of a lot of brews......All Grain too. My Hero. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

The Dark Side..........I reckon nowdays.......Kitbrewers shold be classed on the DarkSide. Full Mash Boys should be Darth Vader. Partial Boys should be Luuuuuke. Darth to Luke......you are my Son!!!! :ph34r:

Try not to confuse yourself. Brewing is simple. Kit Brewing is the basics. Using a bittered, manufactured can of malt, and adding whatever malt, hops to suit your needs, although driven by the kit can. Extract brewing is using unhopped extract, powdered or liquid, and bittering and flavouring...

Just another point. Yes you can add hops to extract. It's called extract brewing. And probably a step up from kit brewing. It allows you to make a beer in your own style, without interference from hopped kit cans. Next step is partial, then full mashing. As long as you bitter your unhopped...

Great topic. I still have a little project thats been on the backburner for a long time. Using rich homegrown plumbs, in a nice rich stout. Some great info here. These points were brought forward to me by a famous fruit/beer brewer on Grumpys forum. # DO freeze your fruits for a few days or...

Funny you say that Rob, i was watching a doco on Pay TV the other day, and some kind of ant ( cant remember the type ) was named as the strongest animal on Earth, weight for weight. Although those little earwig buggas are strong, one attached itself to my dogs lip once ( not ear :D ), and we...

Some people confuse steeping chrystal malts, with mashing or partial mashing. These are not quite the same. Mashing and steeping are two different things. An all grainer or a partial masher will mash their unconverted grains for an hour or so, to convert the enzymes/starches in the unconverted...

I kept around 3 kilo's of crushed grain in the fridge, in a tight bag for around two months. Resultant brew from these grains was outstanding. While doing the mash, the grains still smelt fresh and heavenly.

Second that.

Age your beers too, especially kit beers. A two month old kit beer is going to have a better head than a two week old beer.

Grumpys Hoegaarden Copy. Mmmmmmm delicious.

Must've been a miss print, or an evil attempt to rip off foreigners. :o :o

Tried one of these for the first time. Had a Blonde beforehand and a Vieille Cuvee afterwards. Very Noice !!

Funny stuff :lol:

Lettuce is a waste of space and time. It doesnt belong on Earth A nice home grown tomato for my salad on a homemade burger + beetroot and pineapple.

A favourite food of mine. Love em with an Ale or six. I make mine with freshly laid backyard eggs ^_^ Makes all the difference.

Done it with a Wheat Beer, had no problems.
