Sorry to get off the 'non' topic, but I have a quick question as a brewing novice. I didn't want to start a whole new forum as I'm sure the answer is a quick and simple one, but I can't find it online. If you are adding bittering to your brew i.e boiling hops do you only add the water to the wort or do you put in the hops debris as well. Have noticed from adding everything in that my beer is more cloudy and the flovours less distinct.

It's not a problem if some debris finds it way into the fermenter. Although, strain out as much of the hop debris as you can.

You shouldn't be boiling in water only. 1040 wort is said to be best. You can use some of the wort from your fermenter when it is all mixed up or just add some LDME to water - 100g per litre should get you to 1040 (from memory, be sure to check it yourself).

Thanks for the quick answer. Like a dummy I've been pouring in all of the debris. It didn't feel right. Made my brew very heavy. I'll also take your advice and add some LDM to the water before boiling the hops. From now on I'll let it cool and strain it through cloth. Boiled Galaxy with my last brew and it had a very grassy flavour. I think I prefer Cascade and am experimenting with what type to dry hopping goes well with the Cascade bittering. Gave Fuggles a try this week and interested to see how it comes out. Cheers guys. I'll let you get back to your thread now.

At the risk of referencing a closed thread (the 16th of today) and being banished I'd like to support the motion that meat pie and salad (rabbit food) is wrong. Rabbit and vegetable pie however is boss.

Finally! Someone talking sense on this board!

Don't worry, Pennywise. I doubt it'll get the chance to go cold...

The issue with deleting threads like the one that just disappeared is you'll disenfranchise people who were not really offended by the the previous moderation.
This forum's dying a slow death.
