Great thread novaris :thumbs:, Here's a few thoughts... 1. We know bugger all about FWH. Most of the stuff you see bandied around the net is based on the results of a few brews (pilsners) published in an official journal years ago. Experiments and threads like this enable us all to learn more. Nice...

First wort hopping test

I recently completed the first of what I hope will be a few trials on the effect of FWH. I wanted to see if the idea of adding the hops to the wort and leaving it while sparging and pre boil makes a taste difference. Since BIAB does not do a sparge I decided to leave the hops in wort at 65c for 40 m...

I have been really enjoying the early section on beer history in "Tasting Beer:An insiders Guide to the Worlds Greatest Drink - Randy Mosher".
Also "Beer Companion - Michael Jackson.
There is also a video "How Beer Saved the World" its kinda fun.

Hey Lylo, I would probably consider the braumeister but I can't afford it and I want to brew small lots frequently. I am however considering ideas like the Braumeister NEXTGEN Build (Braumiser). I really would like to develop a fully automated small batch system for playing with recipes. One that I ...

My first BIAG brew was a ramped mash purely by accident. I was brewing a dry stout and mashed in at my selected strike temp, insulated the urn and left for the mash duration everything was at the correct temp 67c. When I came back to mash out the mash was already at 72c. I had not turned off the the...

Well known beer experts have accumulated a lot of knowledge in years of researching "Old" books and papers. Books written years ago where based on myth and conjecture. They became truth with time. We now have more time to think and are questioning our cherished "truths"! Great point BB I guess this...

But problems? I think there is a lot of information on this site that can show that no chill is not a problem. When I said problem I really meant for me i.e. I don't have my head around it fully yet. :lol: I have been doing a bit of reading here and found it very enlightening, the whole no-chill th...

Yes I might have to adjust the boil down slightly we will see. I will be doing a batch on my 3V system at the same time so the HLT from that can easily supply the boil additions. I am still trying to decide if I will chill the BIAB wort or go no chill. Depends a bit on the way the day goes. I chose ...

Thanks PistolPatch that is all clear to me I should be good to go. Did you design the recipe? Thats a fairly extensive grain bill for a first brew and you'll be struggling to work out where one flavor finishes and the next one starts. If something is overpowering or badly balanced you gonna have a h...

First BIAB attempt

I am looking at doing my first brew soon and I would like a sanity check on my plan. The main issue is I have a 27L fowlers preserving boiler for my kettle but I want to do at least 17L.
