    Can't get my head around my volumes and sparging

    Hi all. I have a gluten 40L and cannot get my head around the water volumes. I have tried beer Smith and now Brewfather profiles that others have pulled together. They are based around roughly 2.7 to 3L per kg of grain, but I always end up with a sg before sparging that seems on target...

    IPA recipe for my hop delivery

    Looking for a nice hoppy extract IPA recipe. I've got kohatu, simcoe, summer, El Dorado, Vic secret, mosaic, magnum and a mystery hop that I accidentally ripped the label off. Also have plenty of crystal grain and us 05. I love the modus operandi sonic crush IPA and of course pirate life, so...

    Infection?

    So, I've finally got this keg into rotation and... still pretty ordinary. It has slippery mouthfeel, not at all what I've had with similar recipes. The cheap white wine style taste is still there too. I think it's going to have to go on the garden - my first since my wife put the dryer on...

    Infection?

    I've used half wheat before and it turns out really well. It might just be a bit green so I've started the cold crash so I can get it into the key later in the week. Thanks all for your input and help - much appreciated!

    Infection?

    More a cheap white wine, but didn't spit it out. No physical signs. It's been a couple of months since I brewed so am of of practice

    Infection?

    It all looked fine although it didn't seem to get a big krausen and there's not as much sediment as I remember. I'm pretty sure I washed all the bleach out and sanitised properly. I don't have the recipe on me but two cans one of wheat, did boils of cascade and Amarillo

    Infection?

    So, I've had an extract pale Ale in the fridge for a couple of weeks just letting the us05 do its thing at 18 degrees. Had a check today and it's 1014 but has a winey taste. My fermenter was a bit dirty when I got it out of storage but I hit it with bleach and cleaned it thoroughly and our a...

    loose crystal grains in wort

    Hi all, am doing a brew this morning and the chux I used to steep my grains has split a little and i have a small number of grains in my wort. I can't get them out or strain them without possibly spilling quite a bit . Will it be ok to go through with the boil with them in it or should I really...

    Pale/bright ale - which hop?

    So I actually found I had another pouch of galaxy so I made the same one again. I have another fermenter I want to fill though so might try this. Do you find the Nelson sauvin is really strong? I've read it can over power.

    Pale/bright ale - which hop?

    I'm going to be putting down a pale or bright ale in the next couple of days. Last one I put down was a stone and wood clone which cleaned me out of galaxy. I want to do another similar beer but only have centennial, cascade and Nelson sauvin left. I use a tin each of light and ultra light...

    Stone & Wood Pacific Ale

    Mine has been in the keg for about a week and am not sure how long it will last! Definitely my best brew. Even my old man said he would quite happily drink it all day. Unfortunately now the weather is hot again my temp control goes out the window.
