Hello, I am currently making a mash bill for a Whisky Wash I am going to brew and then distill however I feel like my calculations are wrong. Can anyone help? I am looking for 70% Barley and 30% Oats but why is the weight of what I need exactly the same?

It's the UK so very wet haha

Thank you. It's my first brew you see so I sound sound a bit stupid haha. It did start fermenting quite quickly so I'm sure it finished not too long ago but have now swirled it and will leave a couple more days for the yeast to drop.

Thank you. I shall give that a go! If gravity is the same it won't explode will it in the bottle using Cooper's Tablets?

Mash temp was 65 however it did fluctuate slightly but around this mark. Unfortunately the yeast didn't have any info on the packet except it said British Ale Yeast Hope this helps

Hello, I was wondering if you could help me. A couple weeks ago I brewed a Timothy Taylor Landlord Clone and I believe it has finished fermentation as for 3 days in a row I have recieved a final gravity reading of 1.019 (the start gravity being 1.051). It has been fermenting for 11 days at...

Hey guys. What beer should I brew up for the family this spring time? Planning on a Saison in the summer, some sort of maple beer in the autumn and a Christmasy ale for Winter.

I must admit I have gone a little high with the temp. I've gone for 22°c as the recipe didn't state anything and I'm a bit silly and didn't Google the temp for British Ale Yeast. However there are no fruity off smells or a banana smell which you get with a high fermentation. It smells like a...

Perfect thank you. Very nervous you see as it's my first ever brew.

Thanks! I think you might be thinking of the bits floating though. I'm talking about the silver looking things I've circled

Correct! It's perfect for the winter! Thank you! Hopefully my many questions will be answered here

It's a fish tank heater! (It's exactly the same set up as an immersion heater) I just made it myself

Hello, I'm new here and new to the home brewing world so hopefully you guys can help me out. I had my first ever brew day on Sunday and I've been fermenting my beer for 3 days now and I might be overthinking but is it showing early signs of infection? Yes that is a fish tank heater in the...
