Thanks again Chap Chap and thanks to Mrs Chappo Mum and Dad for another great day. Great food great beers and lots of bulldust. It was good to see the brew brothers again.

Highlights of the day in no particular order:

• No cameras
• Stuck drain into fermenter and restarting the siphon hose three hundred times.
• highly technical hop schedule
• 120 min PA in two 60 min lots (yeah you know what I mean)
• One kickass bitter beer (we hope, at least the hops will cover up any faults)
• One great load bullshit speak
• Chappo actually brewing
• Great beers
• Great food

Ready for the next one Chappo.

Gavo.

Im raising the question here because we talked about it on the day.

US05 alternatives. we were discussing US05 and the liquid alternatives. you blokes were of the opinion that the liquid version rocked. but i cant remember if it was the W1056 or W1272 (all american) that you thought was better than US05 dry?

 

[Bribie G]

The one I have been using is 1056 which I got for the American Ales comp in March - it seems to ferment out quicker and cleaner than US-05 and I re-used some to do a cream ale that was excellent. I'll be using it again when I do cream ales next. Maybe it's my imagination but US-05 always hangs around with a scummy little head for ages but the 1056 finished a lot better I thought.

US05 alternatives. we were discussing US05 and the liquid alternatives. you blokes were of the opinion that the liquid version rocked. but i cant remember if it was the W1056 or W1272 (all american) that you thought was better than US05 dry?

well 1056 would be the best alternative to US05 as going from dry to liquid. The alternate to using 1056 would be to use 1272 as a different strain. Not that i was there or anything?!

Overall i prefer the character 1272 gives, other than 'clean' you get with 1056.

EDIT: Saying that i do get better results from 1056 over US05, also as Bribie has pointed out. US05 tastes dusty sometimes.

 

[brettprevans]

mate that doesnt help. that was what i was getting at. both liquids are better than dry, but it was which of the liquids they were reccomending.

actually just rereading my question it wasnt worded well, so its my fault.

im thinking it may have been w1272 they were reccomending. given that us05 is stock yeast at my place, i might change over to w1272. i might sub out uso5 and replace permenantly with w1272 and WCal Common.

 

[TidalPete]

Have no idea why but was thinking of Chap Chap whilst watching the NRL game tonight & so had to drag up this old thread about that memorable pissup at his place. :lol:

Hope all's well with you Chap Chap old son? Oh Happy Days indeed mate! :super:
