+1 on the repitching. Ive just kegged an imperial porter which went from 1.102 to 1.040 and I wanted it to get to at least 1.030. So at the moment Ive got an IPA fermenting with Nottingham and Ill top crop some of the super yeast and chuck that into the keg. The important thing with repitching...

The recipe looks ok but it also depends on what style of BW youre aiming for. Check out the BJCP guidelines if you need some help deciding. Just be sure you have lowered your efficiency as you will see it plummet with the larger grain bills. Mine goes from 80% for a 1.050 beer to 60% for 1.100.

Here is mine. I recirculate through it 10 min before flame out to sanitise and it does help with cooling. However done expect it to for a hop cone on the base, FBs are the best method every for removing trub.

I know a few guys out there have made some handles or have something unique so post them here for all to see. Here is something I knocked together with a threaded insert Bonj hooked me up with :D

My partigyle beer from an Imperial Porter... weighs in at 2% :o Plenty of speciality malt character which is obvious from the colour but you can tell its low in alc from the mouthfeel.

Dead Guy Ale I little malt sweet on the finish but otherwise a great hoppy beer... who would a thunk perle and saaz could be so tasty :D

Picked this up at nectar not knowing what it was, turns out its a witbier and very tasty :) I only wish it came in a bigger bottle :(

Have a chat to Bconnery about his sour belgain orange, he will be able to give you some pointers. Mighty fine beer :icon_drool2:

Hope you enjoy it because you will never see it again. I was at the brewery yesterday for the garage sale and looked at buying their leftover malt. Would love to have the recipe for their dark ale :chug:

After hearing how you talked about the beer Im tempted to grab another bottle, mine was really awful :(

I cracked one of these tonight and was not a fan at all... didnt even finish it :icon_vomit: I dont know if it was just this bottle but it was like smelling a phenolic fruit cup! It didnt have the soft wheat aroma with yummy esters :( and the flavour was acidic fruit with some oxidation...

Nice one BD, Ill look forward to that at the next meeting.... Mmmm Galaxy :D And I believe that is beer in Bonjs glass :P

Chad is the one who is hosting it on the BABBs site and he mentioned tonight its had about 60 hits so far. Not huge but I haven't posted this any where else. If someone is active on The BN forum feel free to post the link. Could be done but I dont think there are any agreed ratios and if I...

Thanks for the comments guys, JP also like it and called it 'slick' :D Sounds like you have it figured out now. You really only need to add enough salts for the mash water and add them directly to the mash, the already reduced pH due to the grain will help them dissolve. If you want to add...
