Right.

1600g pale malt, 400g Crystal malt, 100g black malt. Mashed at 68 for an hour in 7 litres, end temp 65. Sparge with 7 litres at 80 for 10 minutes.Boil for an hour, 60g each of East Kent Goldings, styrian goldings and first gold added . At 55 minutes added 454g honey, 60g first gold and 5g irish moss. 1065 og so should run out at 7.4%. Hopefully it should be a nice hoppy porter.



7.1% ish. Only got 6 litres out due to shed tons of hops floating about.

Tastes better than the other porter from the barrel.

20% crystal malt and 25g each of hops. 1045 og so might run out between 4.5% to 5.2%.

4.7% in the end. All bottled up now. The honey porter was tried and it is ok. I think I can get one more on before Christmas and bottle before new year. I am running out of bottles.

3 weeks later and it is 4.4%. First taste is quite bitter but the hops come through nicely to balance it. A bit lighter in color than I was expecting, too.

Not as dry as the other one. Have added sugar so it will be fizzy

Why would you do that? It was going so well - cider shouldn't be fizzy!

Not very fizzy, though. I think a little positive pressure could keep it from getting infected.

Edit: actually, if it is remotely potable unlike the last one that would be a GREAT SUCCESS and then I can put it away as ANOTHER VICTORY for me.

Brewdog have released a 'back catalogue' with details of ingredients and method for making all of their beers. And they really do mean all; they seem to have included entries for everything from their experimental short-lived concoctions right through to their core line-up. In the case of Punk IPA for instance they've even included both variation as they apparently changed the recipe in 2010. I don't know enough about this stuff to know if this really is all the info you'd need to try and make your own version or if it's somehow missing important detail but still, it would be cool to try and do your own versions of their beers to see how close you could get to the originals.

I was sitting at my desk drooling at the idea of making my own version of some of their sour beers but fuck knows when I'd ever have the room for such shenanigans. Even if I do move at some point in the new few months as planned I'm still only looking for a two bedroom place and I'd be a bit worried doing something involving large quantities of liquids if I've got neighbours below me...

You can scale it all down. I make 10 litres at a time on the hob. Equipment wise I use a kettle, a 15 litre saucepan, garden sieve, fermenting bin, muslin cloth, hydrometer, measuring cylinder, hop bag and a wormdo. The biggest volume of water you would use this way is 12l just before you boil it. Go for it.

Hmmm, we'll see. In my current flat I genuinely don't have the room for even a fraction of the stuff you've described but we'll see what a new flat might bring in terms of options.

I have started work on ly wort chiller. The copper pipe came in a spiral so I just had to make it tighter to fit in the pan with bits sticking out the top.microbore tube is very soft and I have buggered up the bottom turn so I need to waste 1m of it so far as it is kinked. All the pictures of everyone else's look rather neat and tidy and mine looks like a spiral of copper which is wider at the bottom.

I have started work on ly wort chiller. The copper pipe came in a spiral so I just had to make it tighter to fit in the pan with bits sticking out the top.microbore tube is very soft and I have buggered up the bottom turn so I need to waste 1m of it so far as it is kinked. All the pictures of everyone else's look rather neat and tidy and mine looks like a spiral of copper which is wider at the bottom.



See :(

It's like brake pipe. One of these might help, depending on the diameter: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Brake-Pipe-Bend ... nding+tool

Here's how to work one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXkRQgHDbew

Ta. I will look into that. I managed to salvage it using brute force, tin snips, 2 siphons and boiling water.

But a neater one would be great.

Holy shit. 8m of copper pipe means boiling point to 40 degrees in 15 minutes! Yeast pitching time!

Brew time now down to 4 hours!

Tinner's ale, tonight. Mainly, because I've ended up having to clarify the timescales of "dreckly" with MrsA as after 14 years she still doesn't understand how it is like "mañana" but without the hurry, as stuff still isn't at the tip.

This looks to be a strong one! About 6%

Here's my sexy piece of engineering in action, cooling the wort quickly and crash precipitating the insoluble proteins.
