      Hi all,
      
      Thursday nights at Harts Pub we have an unofficial beer club, Its just been me lately and im getting a bit tired of talking beer to myself. :interesting:
      
      If anyone is around the area and would like to catch up and talk brewing, you would be saving my sanity. :headhit:

      Hey folks,
      
      I'm new to sydney (from canada) and just got in to brewing. Any clubs or meet ups around the city? I joined the ISB google group, but I'm always interested in meeting the like-minded. (I'd also like to have some of my beers interrogated)

   3. Holgate Hopinator (American IPA)

      Hi all,
      
      I've never really tried to come up with my own attempt at a clone before but want to give the legendary hopinator a go.
      
      Pretty sure they use Vienna malt and as hops go im thinking amarillo, centennial, citra and chinook but i could be way off :think:
      
      Any ideas/suggestions?

      I hope you will have this bottled by the 19th Bek :drink:.
      
      AS I've said before, I'm not skilled at designing recipes. I'm wondering though why the proportion of Vienna malt is so high? I have no idea if that is a right or wrong thing to do but it was something that I hadn't noticed before in an IPA.
      
      Looking forward to the book club, sorry, beer club meeting on the 19th :lol:.

   4. Fermentation restarted?

      I put my first biab on just over 2 weeks ago. Bubbled away for about 4 days then stopped (as per most of my beers do) i usually leave it in the primary for 2 weeks, then bottle. Just under 2 weeks old, the airlock started again. Left it for a few days then checked the gavity, it hadn't changed since the 1week check. Is it still fermenting? If so why isn't the gravity changing?
      Im tempted to just bottle but i dont want any explosions!
      
      Thanks in advance,
      Bek

      Thanks guys, really appreciate the advice. The atmospheric conditions do make sense as it started bubbling after we had a significant weather change (30 one day, 23 the next) and i dont have a fridge as yet to cold condition.
      I have been tasting and it seems ok, so will bottle tomorrow. I need to get it done so i can start on my next!
