Re: MS and hurricane Michael

Lovely to hear from you Richard (and Joe).

Although I have been a slack communicator over the last year, you've definitely been in my thoughts. It was great to read that you are making good progress and sobering to hear of the instructors.

Take care fella and brew soon

Re: Brulosophy Vienna Lager

Usual top info from Scott and a good question Steve :salute: . I've been a bit absent of late so sorry for not seeing this sooner. This is a good example for those who want to use the BIAbacus to help them work out the VAW of a recipe. In the link @shetc gave to the Brulosophy recipe, the page has a...

Re: Changing OG of a recipe in BIABacus

Forget what you think you may have read elsewhere on this one pirate. Your wisest course is to increase all the grains including the specialty malts for a number of reasons. For a start, this simply maintains the right flavour balance (base malts also have flavour), a bit like if you increased the a...

Re: Increase heating power

Hi there Angelo, Sorry about the slow reply. Oops! You can leave the lid on to get to boiling point faster. You mention that your lid has a 10 cm hole in it. If so, then you could leave the lid on during the boil as that is enough of an opening to allow volatiles to escape but, I would also float a ...

Re: Brewing a Belgian with a Kveik yeast

Hi Greg, I just had a beer brewed by lukasfab using Imperial A20 Citrus yeast. The beer was an AMerican Pale ALe and the hop bill tasted fantastic but the yeast (he fermented it at 22-23°C / 71.6-73.4°F) and it gave it a slightly unpleasant flavour, not hugely terrible though. We reckon if he fermen...

Hey there Scott :peace: , In my last post I said I'd reply more frequently. Unfortunately, just after that, my van blew up so now I have to find and pay for a new engine.

Sorry your post has gone under the radar @BMWFan . It's going to be easier to answer if you can post your BIABacus file up and then I can make the right changes for you. Hopefully we're not too late???

Thanks for the link and pics BMW - much appreciated :salute: . I hadn't seen the condenser before. We'd probably get in trouble using one here due to water restrictions :think: .
