Good luck guys, after reading all the 6 pages of hand bag news prior to the brew day I have decided to join in the session and brew this bramling on wednesday this week. I will watch with interest to see how it goes. I will be making a 19 litre batch for my corny so I will post my recipe later when I have worked it out as I want to add some horrified wheat :lol:

:lol: :lol: That's like terrified wheat isn't it, but after scaring the bejesus out of it, they show it a malt grinder.

...it's not a yeast 'row', it's healthy forum debate. ;)

It may well go magnificently in a pet bottle...nice cell count in there. Then, introduce the little band of brothers into the vast expanse of wort...

....more is more. :wink:

Just to throw my hat in the ring in the whole yeast debate I too am making a starter in a bottle too see if I can avoid the lag time I experienced with my last brew.

I want to try and see if I can do it this with one packet of yeast before I resort to buying yeast wholesale :lol:

Five minutes of thrashing it with a paddle! I'd say that it aerated! :D might have a look at getting one of those aerator stones, my wrists haven't worked that hard since I was 16 :lol:

Great aeration there Wez. 8)

Was that via elbow grease or a mechanical aid?
As you have said you have done all you can, hope it turns out well for you 8)
