Wa Christmas Case Swap 2012

[cdbrown]

The Alt has been sitting in the keg for the past few months and will be bottled a day or so before the party so they'll be ready to drink. No fancy labels from me. Unfortunately I don't have any full kegs but I could bring along some bottles of my black ipa (if it lasts till then).

While we're on the topic of questionable sexuality, I'm thinking about getting my apron on and preparing some baked mussels for the day..

Any chance I could commandeer the oven for 5-10 minutes to get it all hot and melty Nev?

Oven or the hooded BBQ?

Looks like our case swap brew might not be up to scratch. Used NZ hops I haven't used before (Kohatu, Waimea, Wai-iti) and was pretty heavy handed with 'em but there is bugger all hop flavour and it doesn't cut through the sweetness from the crystal. If it hasn't sorted itself out by the weekend we will sub with either an american amber or wheat depending on which tastes better.

Is everyone making the drop-off deadline this weekend or can I bring them over mid-week Nev?

Totally forgot about the pre-swap drop. I'm sure I need to buy more stainless steel fittings...next pay day . Ill try to drop them off one night towards the end of next week Nev.

 

[Bada Bing Brewery]

Nev, mine and Drew's will have to be on the day of the swap.....
Cheers

[drew9242]

Well there is no chance I will make this drop off. I won't be in Perth till the day. So mine will have to wait till then.

 

[jyo]

Do we get in trouble if we don't drop them off before the date?










Man I hope so.

 

[dent]

Pre swap drop is required? I thought the whole idea was everyone at the same place at the same time (ish), ie next weekend.

 

[Bizier]

I have buckley's of pre-swap dropping also.

That and my beers are still CCing, will be dealt with today.

 

[Bada Bing Brewery]

I'm subbing my sweet Hefe for the Kolsch. Boh pils let me down on this one. Only ever brewed it with wey pils and thought boh would be close enough but helaas, it isn't.

[Spoonta]

i will have to bring mine up on the day

 

[Online Brewing Supplies]

On the day is fine, must bottle mine before Saturday.
Nev

 

[Spoonta]

good I will get some grain of you on the day

 

[Online Brewing Supplies]

As long as you arrange prior as I dont see me having a great amount of spare time on the day.

 

[drew9242]

I'll get my order sorted this arvo, hopefully that will give you enough time to get it sorted?

 

[Bizier]

Bottled.

I went with the soured saison. I am not very happy with it. It is kind of what I had asked for from the ingredients, just not as good as I had pictured in my mind. Well, it was either that or the saccharomyces-only one, which is too flabby from a lot of glucans, there are no other full kegs.

 

[dent]

What did you sour it with?

 

[Bizier]

A slug of slurry from a previous Wyeast Lambic Blend ferment. I have it in the fridge, I figure if soured chips can successfully sour a beer, then a slug of refidgerated slurry, regardless of viability will have to be a confirmed hit.

I am assuming it is pedio here creating lactic acid because of the saison bitterness, either that or literature on lacto is wrong. I also used a very high percentage of acidulated malt.
