    What are you brewing - 2019?

    I don't recall a pub called the Trunk but it could be that we just didn't go in there for some reason. Just wondering do AIPA need to be high ABV or do AIPA's with lower ABV's still have that same hoppyness?

    What are you brewing - 2019?

    That's almost identical to the "Undead" pale ale recipe from James Mortons book, I brewed it a few weeks ago and it's stunning! I was in NZ recently and the Epic brewery turn out some great AIPA Zombie being one and Armageddon being another.

    What are you brewing - 2019?

    Used to be a pub in Leeds UK called Brahms and List in the early 80's, a great drinking hole. Was your Zombie dust based on the NZ Epic brewery Zombie IPA?

    Is there a significant difference between the bog standard light DME you normally get in the local HBS and a branded light DME such as Briess ?

    Predicting OG in Beersmith

    I'm a partial BIAB brewer with limited experience and wanted to know the best way to estimate OG for a recipe. I use Beersmith to create and verify recipes and have noticed that speciality malts are contributing to the estimated OG. My understanding is that speciality malts don't have much in...

    Irish Stout stuck fermentation

    Just read up a bit on diastatic power and it indicated that in general to aim for an average of 70 Lintner for your grain bill and to be safe 100 Lintner. I use Beersmith for my recipe design and can't find any field that indicates what your Lintner average is. Beersmith estimates the OG so I...

    How to sweeten an ESB

    I'm kind of pleased, in a way, that you mentioned that nailing a good ESB can be a mission. As a relative newbie that's quite encouraging as other styles in particular darker ales such as porters, brown ale, stouts and the like are easier to brew to a decent standard in my opinion. I am...

    Will wort keep for 24 hours?

    Many thanks for the ideas guys, I went with JD's suggestion and fingers crossed it turns out ok. Just as an aside how many SG points would you expect to drop in 24 hours?

    Will wort keep for 24 hours?

    In the middle of a brew as I type and the plastic hydrometer tube I use is now out of shape due to me pouring in hot wort ( I know, what a nob !) so now I can't take a reading and I will need to add water after the wort has cooled down in order to reach my target OG and make the volume up to...
