The yeast mentioned in the above article is here. My thinking about adjusting PH is referred to in it. They recommend mash PH is adjusted. My thinking outside the box is working. Now if I can get back in the box that will be progress. https://www.hefebank-weihenstephan.de/en/products/yeast/spezialhe...

Some bit of heavy reading here but still interesting approach.

This wine gum taste you mentioned would it be from the crystal additions I wonder.

By raising the PH of the liquid mash you don't have the grain husks only the wort so extracting tannins should not be an issue.

We had our 5th Brecon last Saturday and a talk by WHC, a yeast provider who said he has a strain that only ferments a small range of the sugars available. He said they will not release it as brewerys who may us it would need very clean packaging as any bacteria would attack the remaining sugars.

To help with the burnt issue I presume pre filtering before boil might be best.

Being thinking about the issue of encouraging alpha amylase instead of beta. Under normal mashing at 64c/68c range we tend to opt for the low 5 PH range but in the cold mash scenario to produce low fermentables with some dextrins I'm thinking about flaring PH. Beta likes it best between 4.0 to 5.5 P...

I think they were using chlorinated chicken in the making of it

Goes great in a porter

Sleep on the boat

As a Liffey Brewer we also meet in Ďublin too

If you hop on the ferry you can link up with a few clubs in the Dublin area. Capital brewers, south dublin brewers, garden county brewers or head to north county brewers

Not clear in my picture but my beer valve is one of them plastic tube pinch clips that you have a soft silicone tube pass through it. This allows the beer to pass through from the corney keg to the bottom of the bottle without any break in the pipe. No where for dirt to collect along the way.

Yes, I plan to put a light in to be able to see the bottle fill. An automatic stop valve would be handy though

Use the same jingle Ryanair use when they land on time
