Re: Jaipur Recipe from IPA book

I have a jaipur junior recipe I'd share if anyone wanted it? its only 4% but that is how I like them. Some people think its an odd hop bill but the only Jim's member to taste it (Spikesdad) said it was spot on. I'd certainly be interested in a session strength version if you're kind enough to share...

Re: Brewing a Hefeweizen with my Speidel Braumeister

Nice post!! All looking very smooth. The BM really does seem to stop a lot of piddling about and inconsistency too; really must get my build under way! BTW, I'm a little worried about the starsan pic, which makes it look quite milky - I can't recall if you're one of those that can get it going milk...

Re: Brewing a Hefeweizen with my Speidel Braumeister

Very interesting for another BM brewer =D> As you're tilting the BM off the table edge be careful that the control unit does not take the weight. I use a hop spider and a hop bag but really like your solution - can you give some details on your dip tube set up please? Sizes, where to get one, etc. ...

It certainly makes the mashing process at lot less stressful, especially stepped mash's, but there's still plenty of room to cock up a brew day :D

Brewing a Hefeweizen with my Speidel Braumeister

My first attempt at posting a brew day so please be kind to me :) The recipe is from Jamil's book, 50/50 Pils malt/wheat malt with Hallertau for 60 mins bittering and WPL300 for the yeasties. This is a bit piccy heavy. I used a 5 step mash with this as I wanted to try a ferulic acid rest as describe...

Re: STC-1000 Not running fridge query

Is the 'cool' light flashing ?

Have you left it switched on for longer than 3 mins ?

First I set mine up I thought the same as you, I then re read the instructions and found that it was in 'compressor delay' for 3 mins before it switched on the fridge.

Re: AG#05 - Summer Honey Beer - BIAB - with pics

In Beersmith 2 Honey is listed in with the grains so you can add that to your recipe to get a more accurate ABV%

Re: Recirculation rate - HERMS/RIMS

I use a Brupaks enamel MT/boiler along with a Totton pump and a PID as my RIMS system. A Brupaks wire rack is placed in the MT which rests on the back nut of the tap and I use a Brupaks grain bag. I'm sorry about the quality but here are a couple of quick photo's I took as I left for work this morni...

Re: First AG brew day (Kipling-ish) with pics

I'm currently working on converting my .net WM6.5 app to Android but I'm finding it hard work, I f~*king hate java !!!! :evil:

Give me C# any day :!:

Re: Speidel Braumeister first attempt

I saw this on an American forum where they add a pick tube to reduce the dead space.
