Perfect, I’ve been wanting to brew a wheat wine and barley wine.
I did not know this existed. Now I do. Thanks.
I've seen interviews with a few very successful commercial breweries touting it, especially in heavily hopped beers. The only place I've seen it on a homebrew scale is Morebeer, and it ain't cheap!I did not know this existed. Now I do. Thanks.
Brew on
I've wondered about using this. A bit expensive, but I love to experiment, even if it's just one and done.I've seen interviews with a few very successful commercial breweries touting it, especially in heavily hopped beers.

I don't understand what I could be doing wrong. It seems to hold pressure decently well if I barely tighten the tri-clamp at the very top but as soon as I try to tighten it it leaks.I had no issues at all with my pressure test. I put some food grade lube on all of the o-rings and silicone seals and it held 15psi like a champ
Both could be for beer. I remember back in the early 2000s I searched high and low for Lyle's Golden and Treacle and couldn't find it anywhere so had to order it from England. Was trying my hand at a true English style Old Ale , Old Theakston. Crashed and burned. As I recall tasted something like burned tires and scorched rubber ash. After waiting a month for the syrups to come all that way...I think I have them still , shoved down in an old box in a forgotten corner of the garageOne of these things is for beer.

You've got to be really careful with (dark) treacle, a little goes a very long way. Golden syrup is great though, in desserts and beer.Both could be for beer.

It was such a horrible concoction I made with the Lyle's and Treacle I was emotionally damaged to ever have the courage to try it again . It's been quite awhile so I may have a go at it again ..some day...or yearYou've got to be really careful with (dark) treacle, a little goes a very long way.

Now's the traditional time of year for parkin, which uses both and is delicious :

My understanding is that these days the cheapest place for USians to get them is from the retailers that cater to British expats - there even seems to be one selling through walmart.com these days, or Amazon.
Although the markups still seem huge - we pay about US$1.70 for a 16oz tin, looks like you guys are paying $6-7 or so.
Cincinnati's finest tap water.
Carey was supposed to be in Cleveland, with the Hot In C. girls. That's the opposite corner of Ohio from where I am.if it was good enough for drew carey to brew with!
Didn't the Cuyahoga River light on fire at one point in Cleveland from all the pollution? I remember reading something about that I think?Carey was supposed to be in Cleveland, with the Hot In C. girls. That's the opposite corner of Ohio from where I am.
