View attachment 30748

Dont be so silly!! Golden Promise and American hops = Award winning IPA :icon_drool2:

In fact, Golden Promise is my fave base malt, and I brew a shitload of American hopped beers, why not have that lovely GP malt backbone to hold the hops up high :icon_drool2:

Ross, I notice you are using a lot of gypsum in the couple of ales you have posted, is this due to the style or the Brisbane water? I've used a tad gypsum with Aussie Ales but avoid it with UK non-Burton ales.

:icon_offtopic: Are you in the shop Friday early afternoon? I'll be there about 1- 2 pm to pick up an order (will be on s/side anyway) and would like your opinion on an ale if I bring a bottle.

Bribie I use a teaspoon or two of gypsym in any beer I brew that has a whack of hops as I find it makes the hop bitterness alot crisper! Im not into the water chem thing yet, but I find theres nothing wrong with adding some gypsum :icon_cheers:

Not often I brew the same beer twice, but the following has to be one of the best beers I've ever made & the keg just blew.

Hi Bribie,

I've always added a teaspoon to help the hops stand out, but upping the level a little now from info learnt in the States.
My base water is rain water, so there's little in it.

CRFTBRWR not available mate? just kidding i know its too long to fit on a plate.

 

[Bribie G]

There's a BABBs member who has a brilliant quite accidental hop related number plate I saw in the car park last time - can't remember the numerals but it reads 123 FWH. Better than DMS I suppose. I'll try and get a photo next meeting.

G,day Ross, No doubt about it salt additions to rainwater really put's the icing on the cake as I have found out over time.

HLT is doing its thang, and I'm prepping a Devos Green Bullet SMASH. Good easy sessional, particularly since spring has buggered off and we've gone straight into summer.

Brewing this pale now... aiming for a very easy drinking crowd pleaser. I am mashing at 64.
The only yeast I have in the house is S04... and I have come to hate it for various reasons. Unfortunately it will have to do for now. I don't think I will ever buy it again. I find it to be like adding butter as an adjunct.

Have you brewed this before Steve? You won't be disappointed

I brewed this (and a few others) for a mates 21st at the end of uni last year. It was the most popular beer we had, despite it being summer and the crowd being made up mostly of typical uni students (goon & juice, passion pop, vodka and whatever beer is on special at the time type of crowd).

Keg lasted about 45 minutes, happy brewing!
