nice one.. Im doing the same one next week for my first AG to.. I'd like to know how it went..

 

[Pollux]

Nicely done.....


Is it just the fact that I did my first this weekend that is making me notice it, or did there seem to be alot of people doing virgin AGs???

 

[dj1984]

i think there is alot starting up.

It certainly seems so Pollux... either that or just more people are "coming out of the closet" - so to speak - and posting about it. It's a great time of the year to brew as well, to prepare for the winter.

I think everyone should post their experiences, allows others to learn from our mistakes therefore increasing the quality of brewer down the line.....


I got stuck in a conversation with the kid at the bottle-o this arvo (I haven't brewed this year until this weekend, NO stocks here right now) about what I did all weekend....

Me: "I've done 2 all grain brews in the last 24hours, I need a beer"
Him: "All grain, I've never heard of that brand"
Me: "No, as in from actual grains and hops"
Him: "Oh, do you buy that as a kit like the ones at Coles"


I gave up and walked out.

 

[GMK]

As you should have walked out...

Some people you just can't help !

+1 for that. If it wasn't for AHB I'd probably be asking my LHBS if I could buy a tin of that all grain stuff thats supposed to be so good :unsure: . The scary thing is he'd probably check his catalog for a price.

Congrats DJ!

Should have twigged you were close to the AG slippery slide by the mush tun BB ball valve thread.

Glad hear all went well.

:icon_offtopic: I reckon DrS needs to change the name of his golden ale to "Cherry Popper Golden Ale" :lol:

Got to admit it's a great recipe thou.

Good stuff DJ, glad to hear it was all going well when I called, and it obviously finished well also!

I can't imagine it, but is it possible that we will get sick of drinking Dr Smurto's Golden Ale in a month or so given the amount of it we are making right now?

It just sounds good - Golden Ale..... It seems that heaps of people have made it for their first AG, quite easy to discuss with others I guess because so many have made it. Could be time for a poll, what was your first AG brew?

Bit late Crundle there was a thread about a week ago, as for lasting a month football season is here so it will last about 4-5 hours once the family gets hold of it!!


Edit: I seen your thing down the bottom you will not get me to drink it maby a sip but not a glass :icon_vomit: :icon_vomit:
