I wish my brewery had a slide....

Great brewery shed there, pdc. Its a bit like the TARDIS, isnt it?

Looks like nice brew.

Thanks guys, the slide makes for a quick get away.

I did buy a 6'x'4' shed to brew in but the little monster took over that so I'm back in the garage.

Final pics...

1040 ish so still 80% efficieny for me.


I'm still waiting for a chiller so off the bed to cool, pitch in the morning.

All done in 6 hours, just got to clean up now.

Nice PDC!

Let me know how it pans out - I made a Mild the other day from M.O., Munich, Dark Crystal, CaraMunich and Chocolate Malt (bottom of the grain bin mild kind of thing). Would love to hear how your one does, I have not tried making a mild from mild malt.

Great looking pint there Phil

Hi Guys I'll be making this one again, I've tried 20 or so pints just to make sure but for me it is a good 'un.

The Mild Ale Malt is in no way Cloying - I'd trim down the wheat next time though the taste of it lingers a little too long for me.

Nottingham was my yeast of choice I'd like to try something different next time. Maybe a brewlabs midland.

I've handed out a few bottles maybe i'll get a few reviews on here.
