Hi guys, I'm still a bit of a newbie in the partial mash method and have used pre packaged recipe kits. Though to my visits to the closest homebrew supply shop Ive been like a kid in a candy shop and purchased quite a few different types of my own ingredients so I thought it'd be fun to list the...

Ok good thank you!

Ok guys I need your help with this batch again. When I got home from work today all the foam had subsided and now there is barely any foam on top. Is this normal? My last batch, which was my very first ever, had a decent amount of foam on top for at least a week @dawn_kiebawls

Nottingham High performance ale yeast

Also will that give the yeast enough sugars to consume during fermentation for a decent ABV or should i give it something else?
