Thanks for the help guys so it's as I suspected the same as a party tap so i may as well use that. I'm looking for the that natural carbonation which looks like I can't get that from a Corni keg. Someone needs to invent the 5L stainless steel cask I'd have 5 of them straight away Cheers Hand pull W...

Hi all ive been looking for a way to get that real ale taste you get from a keg to a hand pull. i have tried bags in boxes and things but with no great success, so i wondered about the corni method. forgive me if i am being really thick but if you carb the corni the resulting beer would be the same ...

using Aurora lots at the moment its become my favorite duel purpose hop

My Doombar

i fermented for 4 days at 20c then racked to corny dry hopped with 20 grams of Aroura (no gas ) then back for 5 days at 20c then 13c to serve
as you can see this is as close to cask ale as you can get and taste pretty darn good

ah ha seeds sounds like a good idea let me know how you get on

As far as a Doom Bar recipe, you're probably close. I didn't know about the CaraPils. I have: 93.1% Pale, 6.2% Crystal, .7% Roasted Barley. I guarantee Coors aren't using a premium pale malt like Maris Otter at mass-production scales. A little CaraPils is maybe a cheat to put some body and mouthfee...

Looking to buy some but cant find any for sale any help on this please

i've changed this now Aurora is definitely the late hop one sniff and it was very obvious

I have the yeast cultured from a cask of doombar have a look here the brewer runs through the recipie https://www.sharpsbrewery.co.uk/our-beers/doom-bar.html

I never had any off flavours with the yeast I just found the beers very bland. The reason I brew in the first place is to make beers better than most of the crap beer you buy.

i would agree there is something not quite there much preferd the liquid yeast

mmm just brewed 50l of courage directors from the gw book and fermented half with so4 and half with wlp005 and was very supprised at the difference between the yeasts, so4 left a very sweet fruity beer and may i add no off taste at all it is very drinkable, 005 was very smoth and much drier and a mu...

yes that will be fine you could then serve it from there or transfer to another keg

ok as no one knows i will do this anyway just add my vile to 3L of malt on a stir plate and ferment out for 48 hours cool and decant and hope all goes well
