    Suggestions. No hops beer.

    At this stage it has become my first choice on hot nights. Only problem is anything else tastes really bad after having one of these. The sour flavour is really intense. I hope its not an infection that has caused it as someone has suggested. I WILL be trying to make it again. Please note that I...

    Suggestions. No hops beer.

    Had about 1/2 dozen of them now and really like them. Certainly not in a beer way but the sour taste is nice. Every mouthfull kinda surprises you. Had someone else try one today. Said it tasted of acid. Suggested it was possibly Tartric acid which he seemed to think is part of the beer making...

    Update!! Cracked the first one today. To say I'm surprised is not even close. What I had in mind was nothing like this. Unfortunately my description won't come close to being helpful but here goes. NOT sweet, more like a cider than anything. Tarty, effervescent, sour. My wife says "sherbet"...

    Newcastle - Sodium Perc

    I just find it a stupid thing to do. They have already given me positive feedback for the sale. I was thinking of doing what you said anyway. Thanks.

    Newcastle - Sodium Perc

    I bought one of these on ebay yesterday. First email they send me is a threat." If I don't give them positive feedback they will give me negative feedback". Is this the way business is done these days?? To threaten customers who might think your service is up to standard.Pretty poor show in my...

    I have a can/chook holder just for that recipe. I have never tried it. It gets used as a bottle rack for drying bottles after use. Upside down as in the photo. Thanks. I will have to try it now.

    Thrown two out this year plus the trub left over from the fermenters goes straight on the lawn every time. I don't know if this is why but my lawn has never been this green in 20 years. The beers were undrinkable. The most positive comment I got about one was "it would make a good cough mixture"

    HHMM!! might have to invest in one of those. My lawn has never been this healthy and green from all the beer and trub thrown on it lately.

    Suggestions. No hops beer.

    It ended up at around 25 litres and it was an experiment to start with just not the one it turned out as. It's my first BIAB, it's my first "All Grain", the base grain which I used is an unknown (Free gift) and can't get again type. The recipe is one I made up playing around on one of those...

    I'm a bit slow. Care to explain. You lost me.

    Must admit that I have always wondered what it would taste like as a comparison. Trouble with this particular one is there are lots of firsts and unknowns in it so a bit hard to know what causes what. We will see???

    I only put it in bottles yesterday so it needs to age/carbonate for a few weks before I will know. I should have had a taste straight out the fermenter but to me they all taste terrible that way.

    I can live with it tasting like a commercial swill. Just don't really want to throw it out. I do too much of that already. I like experimenting and go by the "if one is good then ten will be fantastic" school of thought.......Normally doesn't work.

    Suggestions. No hops beer.

    I looked at "hop extract" and that looks like a possibility but the amount is a bit of a worry 33/1000ml per 330ml bottle. Not sure how to measure an amount like that. Perhaps dilute and add ?? a few drops.

    Suggestions. No hops beer.

    After bottling I have discovered that I left the hops out of my "beer". Yes! all of it. Somehow in my process it didnt go in. Any ideas what it will taste like and suggestions what to do. I thought of putting "bitters"in the glass like they use in "lemon lime and bitters"??? Surely someone else...
