    No alcohol IPA?

    I did a 1% APA which was drinkable (scored 34 in a comp) but it made me realise just how much alcohol contributes to mouthfeel and fullness of a brew. All the flavour was there but it just didn't feel like a beer on the way down, more life a beer flavoured soft drink.

    Fermenting Saison Yeast at a Low Temp?

    I did a table strength saison with 3711 @ 21 for a few days then stuck in next to my computer for another week and half to get it warm in winter. Tiny amounts of citra, sorachi ace and amarillo to ~15 IBU rager. Tastes great and very easy drinking with a citrusy touch but probably a bit safe as...

    I was around at Seehuusen's place yesterday and had a go of; 5. Motabika - Lichtenhainer It was like Knackwurst and Sauerkraut In a glass. I strangely enjoyed it, and the piss-take of a bottle label.

    Falling short of target OG

    Are you doing BIAB? Your grain weight and water volume look very BIABish so I'll roll with that. I'd drop your Total efficiency in BS to 65% and do a little sparge on your grain bag. Just hold back a few L before your mash and pour it over or into the grain bag when its lifted. If you have the...

    Crap loads of acetylaldehyde in red ale with WLP004

    What smurto suggested can be achieved with a campden tablet. You don't have to break into your neighbours meth lab to use their equipment or anything its pretty easy. Oh and don't try to use a garlic crusher to crush the tablet. It busted the arse out of mine and made the missus rather cranky.

    Keg King ROBOBREW 35L SINGLE VESSEL BREWERY

    Hey guys, thought I'd throw up a quick Robobrewday and thoughts after first run with the machine. Was feeling a bit scottish with my insulation mat today. Mashing was fine, my magnietic drive pump didn't arrive in time so no recirc for the maiden run. Missed my OG by 2 points, still trying to...
