Hello,

I'm at it again.

3.5kg M Otter
250gms Cara Malt
250gms Torry wheat

and the unknown hops I picked a few days ago.
250gms Sugar
10gms Hedge row hops @ 60mins
10gms Hedge row hops @ 30mins
40gms Hedge row hops @ FO

Stuck it on my GOLD-SMIFF US-05, the US-05 i'm starting to like very much
for some reason only managed to get 19 ltrs, its in the Fv and the yeast is bobbing up and down like a pickled Onion ( Fast show) looks like i might have to save this as it has a G off 1068

Sounds like a good basic bitter
*Ahem! Pictures??)

I'll do a few pics and yes STD Bitter, wanted to understand the hops I picked.

S.T.D Bitter sounds like it might have a bitter after-taste that's hard to get rid of!

Might have to have one of those Umbrellas in it......ouch.

John Thomas Bitter

*good name for it mind you!!*

Almost made my eyes water...
The dreaded Swab!!!

Pics as requested.

Ahh, I see now, "its all done with mirrors", whats that grain hopper thing in inside.JPg ?

the Grain hopper thing i found at a boot sale, It I think is used at those shops that sell loose animal feed, its rodent proof so far, and so easy to measure out my grain (as is a sack).

how mad is that, I have been looking for the link to the exact bit of kit I have and was going to post you a link to a USA site that had them and i found this.
