Off now to crush the grain for a Blonde Ale, then will follow it up with something else later, not sure yet.

Will FWH the Nelson Sauvin only and ferment with WY2565 nice and cool. Should be nice for Christmas Day.

Cheers.

Yardy, I usually get a boil proof plastic jug and lift out about 500ml and dissolve the sugar into that and then add back to the keggle. :D
 
Something a little different today and primarily to harvest the yeast for a 1.100 braggot I have planned next.

It also had the whitest head of foam when it started to boil, I havent seen anything like it :huh:

I nearly wasnt going to add any but to save me any trouble sparging I added 2 handfuls. Sparged no worries and was one of the lightest and clearest beer Ive done so far.

This is how mine all look no matter what the beer/yeast. They only do that for 1-2 days, then they settle down enough that I can put in an airlock and not have to worry about it being ejected from the carboy. That isn't pretty - particularly if it's a stout and it erupts onto a stippled ceiling. Not good.

How many batches have you made since turning AG? You are pumping them out there mate and each one looks very tasty. Have you made a beer without munich in it? I have to force myself not to add a good whack of munich into every beer.....

Hey buddy, this one was AG batch number 19, about 5/6 months since I went to the dark side, I just love it aye, love making it just as much, sometimes more, than I do drinking it B) I have no other place but here to thank for it really...

Ive made a few beers without Munich, but ive noticed the little bit of Munich and Wheat really go down well in Pale Ales... My Unspeakable hasnt got Munich, but im planning take III and was thinking of trying some :ph34r: Its just such a good malt!

Id love to know what my efficiency is for the above, my beersmith trial ran out today :( I will buy it, but not when the US $ is so bloody low <_<
