    Capsule based brewing

    "It’s unclear how much the machine and capsules are going to cost and if beer tastes any good." I'd hazard: Lots and Probably Not

    The same reason we pay more for domestic gas than the countries we sell it to.

    How to estimate OG for cyser. Honey + Juice = 1.? Plus apple-pie cyser

    Can anybody suggest somewhere in Melbourne to buy small quantities of Madagascar Vanilla Beans? The price has gone through the roof recently and most places seem to sell in bigger quantities than I need.

    Late/Whirlpool hopping an IPA with Styrians

    Yes, I did. I used (from memory): FWH 50g 10 30g 0 20g Dry Hop 20g Initially it was pretty overwhelming but settled down and now towards the end of the keg (of course) it's coming out nicely. That said, I think I wouldn't bother with the dry hop next time and...

    Should we really trust Google Translate?

    Here's some more: Do I want to crumble in Corneliusfat, and sometimes I do, then I put the bum in a sock I sewn of a fabric that IKEA had previously called Sarita. If you want to have similar fabric to sock or BIAB bag, there is a fabric called Theresia that should be as good. I cook this for a...

    Should we really trust Google Translate?

    Maybe not. This from a Swedish brewers blog. I was particularly intrigued by the underlined sections: Exhaustion and page batch At 9 o'clock, the hot mash was already ready and ready and ready for the malt to be transferred to another saucepan. I got 16 liters on the entire SG 1,036 which...

    What a brilliant mind. Must read his book again - I only understood about 10% of it the first time

    English Mild

    Surprising that it's 25% sugar with 85% attenuation. Presumably the 2 hr boil contributes something too.
