4 to 5 days at 18 then i crash chill for a week or so. i'm no expert though, like some on here. i'm still in the trial and err side. in fact my current brews have been sitting at zero for 3 weeks cos i havent had time to bottle.

i just had my first taste. its not offensive like VB, it just tastes really plain, maybe even ricey? i've gone from a australian edition duff beer which i thought tasted plain to an even plainer rivet lager. why?????? just had to know.

i dry hop mine at 3gms per litre , but i love it.

cheers, its going in regardless, lol. mostly mt hood, almost a smash. ive just bottled a pilsner/home grown cascade smash, just to see how the home grown ones taste. my first season growing and i've got a kilo or so in the freezer, more than happy.

Hi all, i'm wacking in a couple of 10ltr extract brews this weekend, basically to test some hop flavours, extract because i'm feeling lazy today. i've got around 600gms of mt hood flowers that i grew this year and i've never used them. probably should have tasted some before i planted it, but...

i'm in vic and we're going to have 4 days next week in the high 30's/low 40's, will the hops survive? obviously they will get a good soaking but i'm worried they'll bake. i'm trying to figure a way of shading them but they are pretty high.

6 pack of grand ridge brewery yarra valley gold, hop hogs, just polishing off a sierra nevada summer harvest long neck/pint, whatever it is, then its back to my extract galaxy brew which i've been smashing down all week, too easy to drink
