As I floated up the tunnel of white light I felt all my worldly cares drifting away. A sense of warm belonging enveloped me. Hands, myriads of hands, beckoned me and there at the end of the tunnel, revealed for the first time in their true persona of gentle and eternal souls were DrK and manticle enjoining me to join them for eternity.

Then with a flash of thunder I was sent back as I still have tasks - couple of wins in the State would go down well B)
 
San Fran beer is far better than Tibetan
Relax and have a Homebrew
Relax and float downstream
It is not brewing

No chill to WTF in under a page. A new record?
 
What i ended up doing was to add my 60mins at 50, and drop my 10mins to flameout. I put my flameout additions in at whirlpool. This will suit my lazy arse and if it works out ok, but different i'll probably stick with it.

I hope it works ok as i did 315l this way :lol: :lol: :lol:

I kegged the first three cubes last night, but it's a recipe i hadn't tried before.

I threw two cubes of Dr Smurtos golden down on the lees, so i should have a good idea how it's gone in a couple of weeks. I've brewed the golden a couple times before.
 
Last brew i no chilled for half an hour then dunked em into a water bath to chill it below 70 degrees, then let it cool at ambient.
 
last no chill I did I put all my hops in the cube and didnt boil them at all...figured they would be up above 90C for an hour or two anyway so what was the point of boiling them? :blink: ...Ive always got heaps of bitterness but lacked flavour and aroma when no chilling...Im hoping the hops in cube approach will balance this out a bit...Yet to try the Argon method but might have to give it a crack if I can be arsed adding more steps to my brewing process!
