There is an old thread somewhere on here that links to a scientific paper reviewing exactly that. Sorry I couldn’t find it for you. MHB might know the one I am referring to?

Not really as an increase in temp results in an increase rate of staling. I think Charlie Bamforth has mentioned a 2-3x rate of staling in finished beer for every 10degC increase in beer temp.

I don’t disagree that it is interesting (I still read it) and I am in theory supportive of what they are trying to accomplish, they just don’t do a very good job. The main accomplishment of Brulosophy thus far is to demonstrate how crap the palate of the average person is, even when they have an...

I disagree with that, why use stats and invoke the magical p<0.05 if you are not trying to prove something on some level? It is a gross misuse of statistical methods in my opinion anyhow as the experiments themselves are usually poorly designed and/or implemented. The worst part about them is...

Once again I feel compelled to add that Brulosophy results generally mean nothing due to flawed experimental design (as I saw recently in a water chemistry experiment) or the fact that you could lay a turd in one of the cups used for the triangle test and the ‘tasting panel’ wouldn’t pick it up...

There are plenty around. I personally have never had one that I thought was an improvement on IPA (generally speaking).

Please take all Bruslosophy results with the proverbial grain of salt. I suspect you could drop a literal turd into one of their triangle tests and the ‘tasting panel’ still wouldn’t achieve statistical significance.

Any update on how cold crashing went with this setup? How much did the bag inflate? I admire the simplicity of this setup very much.

This stuff is garbage, don’t let it anywhere near your beer. There are plenty of threads about it if you search the forum.

I got a ton a dill during the ferment but it all disappeared by the time the beer was ready to drink. It ended up a lemon coconut kolsch. Was very tasty.

It’s an interesting hop, I like to use it in a Kolsch like MP brewery. I can’t imagine it’s a hop that would play well with others though??

The Sorachi Ace is going to give you quite a bit of coconut in addition to the lemon note. If that’s not what you want then you might want to go with something else.

A massive dry hop will probably not help. Depending on what hop you use and how you do it, the situation could become worse as dry hopping can add some astringency. I would leave it, your beer will be fine. A calculated 50 IBU won't result in 50 IBU in the finished beer anyhow as some of that...

Putting the bins out once a week is annoying enough! It would **** me to tears having to collect up my recycling and cart it off to the nearest robot.....like I haven’t got anything better to do with my time [emoji849]

Don’t taint your efforts with chips, dominos are a far better option.

The new KK ones are excellent.

Yeah I don’t get it either. Is kerbside recycling not working?

There are still 400 odd left according to the IBA.

I agree, it makes no sense to me to buy a brewery at the pointy end of the craft spectrum and then proceed to literally water down the product offering to reduce COGs. It makes more sense to keep the quality up and to drop the price, putting the squeeze on the independents that can't match price...

I’ll also add (not directed at anyone here in particular) that these breweries that get bought out owe their customers/fan base/obsessives absolutely nothing. The transaction here is cash for beer. Just because you have bought beer from a particular brewery does not mean you have also bought a...
