    Bottling with Kveik yeast

    Depends on your strain of kveik. Most of the commercially viable strains are listed here If you have a single strain isolate, you shouldn't have an issue bottling and it should perform like a generic yeast you are used to. Personally, I have some of the Mainiacal Voss, without any of the...

    How good are partigyles... Always worthwhile if you have a bucket handy to make starter beers and yeast cakes. If you ever forget to measure preboil gravities, you can calculate the difference using the known volumes and post boil gravity. Preboil Volume x Preboil Gravity = Post boil Volume x...

    12. MikeyR - Cali Uncommon Tasting this after the previous beer is a tough act to follow. I'm not sure what to add to what has already been mentioned? I got a lot of funk on the nose too. I initially thought there may be something wrong with the bottle but that concern was quickly reversed...

    9. n87 - Stinkin' Pom IPA, ~7.2% - RTD Nice beer. How did it fair in the competition you mentioned? Would assume the judges would expect a significant increase in hop aroma and some more bitterness to tick the English IPA box? Not that it matters, it is nice beer in its own right and doesn't...

    2. Paulyman - Coffee Amber Ale (Drink after June) Nothing bad to say about this brew. Getting a nice complimentary coffee along with some berry like dark fruit. I have to admit, I was expecting a chocolate/caramel tirra massu vibe initially... guiltily call it a bias towards my own coffee...

    Looking for a sour dough starter

    Has anyone used a bit of Acidulated malt in their sour dough starter mix? I've got a little bit left which will be useful in my next batch but thinking I might add the powder from the bag to blend with some traditional organic flour/water etc...

    Competition advice for newbies

    If you want to enter for feedback and advice, it is an ok tool. A better tool is joining a club and sharing beers with a wide range of brewers. I don't often brew for competitions. But the few times I have, I've done well. If you want to win medals, the best advice I can give is doing a BJCP...
