Ahhh... Thanks PP!! I thought I either I was going mad or it was a case of RTFM. As a matter of interest, can you shed some light on what else is a factor in carbonation? The only thing I am aware of is the amount of dissolved CO2 in the beer to start with. Assumedly there is more to it than that. T...

BIABacus Bulk Priming Calculator

So, I'm assuming that because there aren't already posts here on the issue that the problem is my end, but I can't work it out and would love some help. Before BIABing, hence before discovering this site, I had been using one of the many bulk priming calculators on the web. After making the transiti...

For me it almost tasted like whisky - a nice hit of strong but smo...

Triple gold? Nice... I am bottling this lot. I can crash chill it too. I think I'm going to have to rack this one just for the sheer amount of trub in the fermenter. Maybe then, after some time in the secondary, I crash chill it before bottling. I think the bag is ok. It was just the muppet on the e...

Thanks BungBrew! Yep, I used a hop sock. The reason I thought I had to whirlpool was that the boiled wort was pretty gritty. I know when you are doing a three vessel brew you drain off the wort from the mash tun and recirculate it through the grain bed to help filter it. Anyhow, there is a stack of ...
