Camera angle I think hashie, the beers were almost identical held to the light. Mine had more carbonation and the difference was I used half a teaspoon of golden caster sugar and Dave used coopers carbonation drops.

Our conclusions were that we're not the greatest tasters but we know what we like and we l...

Hashie I tried your recipe and after a couple of weeks conditioning it has a pronounced 'smoky' aftertaste, not unpleasant but also not something I'd associate with hobgoblin. I know a good 8 weeks in the bottle and this may be gone but I wondered if you'd experienced the same.

Hashie I've also had a crack at your ESB which I've named 'broken face' in honour of my dog who got a kick from a horse, he's ok, the beer is a bit young but early signs are great.

Still convinced that grain bill is wrong so I watched the wychwood craft brewing video, which says predominantly pale, some crystal and a little bit of chocolate! I now suspect 'trade secrets' were things he doesn't know!

OK Hashie you'll laugh at THEIR recipe. Tour guide claimed the grain ratio is 80% crystal 20% chocolate and a nibble of pale.

I think what's happened is I am finally getting my maxi-biab sparge right. I have a 26l boiler and I start with 20l in the boiler. I did 3 dunk sparges of roughly 3l using my fv to sparge in and topped up during the boil. I was a bit despondent first time I tried this recipe because I ended up with ...

I'm going to the wytchwood brewery in March, hopefully I'll get an idea of the full scale recipe. I'll share yours ans see what they say.

Crystal clear in record time - is this a problem?

Morning all. Last night I bottled a Timothy Taylor Landlord recipe after 10 days in the FV FG=1.008. It was crystal clear, no odd tastes, the only finings used was a protofloc tablet in the kettle. Have I just been very lucky or could this be something else at work. Previously I have put two nearly ...

That looks like the Sierra Nevada pale ale clone recipe pack I bought. Very nice ale indeed. I have some in my stock for xmas presents, surprisingly I keep going back for 1 last quality control.
