    Cc With Ale Yeast

    I've bulk primed before when the temp of the brew was low and had no carbonation probs. I'm not 100% sure what temp it was at though. Edit: When the temp is raised, does yeast automatically go back into suspension? Or does it need to be roused with a bit of a shake?

    Americans Upset The Germans Again!

    If we are lucky Bud won't make back the money they spent on the bid, then hopefully they won't sponser the WC again...........or if we are really lucky any sporting event outside of the US! :beer: but there will be a lot of thirsty people in the stadiums, so not sure how long they'll hold...

    Brewing Books

    Ray Daniels - Designing Great Beers = Very useful, lots of info to help design your own receipes. John Palmer - How to Brew = Very useful, especially when starting off on any type of brewing (AG/Partial/Extract)

    Man Vs Machine Who Will Win

    I agree with you that he was boxing smart................but it didn't do much for me. I personally prefer fast moving and aggressive fight, which this was definately not. HAHAHAHA! I don't even know if you'd call that a fight! It was just a mauling! It looks like Hoppa has found a different...

    Man Vs Machine Who Will Win

    I thought the fight was like every other mundine fight. First few rounds, just pretty much run away around the ring while Green did all the work. Then as Green starts to get tired, Mundine starts to actually box a bit and starts to land a few good hits. Then when mundine knows he's up on...

    40 Min Boil Disaster, Wish Me Luck

    Likewise! But then again, I first saw an AG done by Duff so I took with me a few tricks of the trade except I use a filing cabinet for my HLT then a fold-out picnic table for the mash tun

    First Brew

    Don't get too hung up on whether your airlock is bubbling. You want to lid to stop any nasties crawling/falling in. If it seals tight, then thats good but if it doesn't don't be too worried about it. I've heard of brewers who've never had their airlock bubble and haven't experienced any dramas.

    Js Golden Ale - Recipe Comments

    Hi Colin, I've played around with a Golden Ale recipe before. Here's a link to my Xmas entry which was my Golden Ale Golden Ale I actually liked this better than the JS Golden Ale but I liked to have more Amarillo flavour and aroma. Cheers,

    First Brew

    If it's got a krausen (foam) it's fermenting away. Probably no bubbling through the airlock because there is a leak in the seal but nothing to worry about. Just use your hydrometer to check when fermentation is complete
