General brewery shot
Recirc of 1st runnings
Sparge wand reduced made no difference to efficiency
Runoff into kettle
Todays hops. The plastic tubs have cascade hops that i used the other month to dry hop another IPA. Since then they have been in the freezer. I am taking a leaf out of Ainswicks book and reusing my hops for their remaining bittering compounds. First time i've tried this.
Yeast starter calmed down
Running into fermenter
While watching the run off into the fermenter i liked the look of my piping so i took a shot.(Leave normal to others).
Runoff almost complete

General brewery shot, looks a right mess but honest there's order in their somewhere!
There are some hops in this brew from Boris Charlton over in Articles for sale section. The Willamette and fresh cascade are from him. Both smell great but the Willamette in particular is stunning. If this gets a bit of dry hopping it will be with the Willamette. Who am i kidding with the word 'if'!
), but i brew a red ale with all Willamette to try them out since it was the first time i'd used them, but they smell fantastic so far!!! think i'll be throwing a load in to dry hop as well, just for research purposes obviously...
