Re: Autumn Burst

Seems to work quite well, its early days as its only been in the bottle a week now. The overal impression is an IPA style, its quite sweet, but I normally mash at 67 as I like body in a beer.

Autumn Burst

Here is a recipe for a light beer I made a few weeks ago to use up some hops I had sitting around in the freezer for some time. I bottled it last weekend and cracked one open this evening - its a real cracker, sweet nice hop aroma and good balanced bitterness. IBUs are low for the level of hops, but...

Re: Best way to "fine" beer - the vegetarian way?

There was a vegetarian fining available until recently but they're out of business now. :( I'm currently drinking a beer that has been conditioning for close to 3.5 weeks now and it's still not completely cleared: My latest br...
