    To Helles with this

    I've never come around to brew Helles yet, maybe next winter? Multiple Norwegian champion highly recommends Weyermann Barke in Helles. Link in Norwegian ( non Norwegian could use Google translate if interested). https://www.holmentoppen.no/blogs/news/er-dette-verdens-beste-lyse-lagerol-3f...

    To Helles with this

    @Erik the Anglophile I've noticed you're a big fan of the Brewly English Ale, have you tried the Brewly version of the 34/70? It's supposedly cleaner and produces less sulphur than Fwrmentis version. There is a long thread at the Norwegian Homebrew forum...

    What is "Alt" beer

    It actually looks like my grist is more like your revamped recipe than your original. And I suspect my yeast is more attenuative. Lallemand Köln have better attenuation than WLP036. I got 81% on a Kölsch mashed 30min at 146 and 30 min at 158. 152 at my recipe should take me to FG 1.011, I'm not...

    What is "Alt" beer

    Thanks for sharing your experience. The grist is set, as it's already crushed. If I'll dry it more out, I suppose I would lower IBU a bit. Down to 35?

    What is "Alt" beer

    I'm brewing an Altbier tomorrow. The grist looks very much like @wepeeler. I suspect we both have had a good look at Mean Brews YouTube video 😂. https://recipe.brewfather.app/eUFsLHlHXnxvGK22G8t14Jbg5uLs1d My grist Hop schedule Waterprofile Yeast Lallemand Köln not 100% correct, but I...

    Dry yeasts identified - your opinions please!

    @Northern_Brewer your assumptions about Brewferm Top is somewhat conflicting whit this thread. https://www.homebrewinguk.com/post/dried-yeast-guide-belgian-saison-kveik-and-sours-10520699 I haven't used Brewferm top, so I can't neither confirm or deny any assumptions, but since I have a...

    Black IPA thing of the past?

    You could try to contact the brewery and ask for the recipe, lots of craft breweries share. Some even put recipes up without asking like Norwegian 7 Fjell. Here is their Black IPA recipe. https://www.7fjellbryggeri.com/recipe/brewoursvartediketblackipa/ If you ain't aware of the thread I'm...

    Dryhop Pacific Gem in a Berry Sour?

    I have no experience with Sour IPAs that is a thing, and I suppose they are hoppy. They might be very heavily hopped and no dryhop to get that hoppy taste?

    Dryhop Pacific Gem in a Berry Sour?

    I've got 8oz Pacific Gem which I don't have any plans or know how to use. Now I got a 5 gallons Gose-ish berry sour with blackcurrants, redcurrants, raspberry and blueberries fermenting. I've asked myself if a 4oz dryhopping with Pacific Gem would be a good idea? Long shot for a less common...

    I need inspiration for an IPA

    I really like the Lagunitas IPA. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/can-you-brew-it-recipe-for-lagunitas-ipa.175370/ And since I don't have any of the hops used in the recipe I can't brew it. But if I could get close to a ballpark anywhere in that neighborhood I'd be more than happy. I'll...

    Starting a yeast bank

    The BE-134 is just awesome. Pitched at 20°C went up to 26-27°C. Nice balance between phenols and esters. 1.052 to 1.000 within a week.

    Dry yeasts identified - your opinions please!

    I'm not surprised. And I'm not in a position to know anything about it from personal experience since I first was in the UK in the nineties. So I have to rely on what's written. I suppose marketing works on me. Either way the Summer lightning clone works if anyone wants a light refreshing...

    Old School Golden Ale. British Grain, Hops and yeast. Just like it was when Golden Ales started. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/summer-lightning-clone.693874/

    British Golden Ale Summer Lightning clone

    After Hopback's Summer Lightning won Champion Beer of Britain in the late 1980’s British Golden Ales became a thing. There are several clones found of this beer if you search. But the recipes have clear similarities. 12 lb 2 oz Maris Otter 3 °L (100%) Mash 149 °F 60 min Mash Out 161 °F 15 min...

    Dry yeasts identified - your opinions please!

    My guess is that the picture is more complicated. There are more yeast producers than Fermentis, Lallemand and Mauribrew. CrossMyLoof are rumoured to have some of their yeasts from Germany, I think @Northern_Brewer provided this information. There is a Swedish company producing beer yeast. I've...

    Some interesting information about the origin of Nottingham, Windsor and London. They come from the same source.

    Simple Saison

    I'm down to 1.002 with BE-134 at my aforementioned recipe, no sugar there.

    Simple Saison

    The recipe looks very good. I've got my hand of a recipe which is close to Glazen Toren Saison d'Erpe-Mere. Got it from a guy who visited the brewery and put it together with information he got. It's even simpler than yours, but have a few similarities. Grist 87.5% Pilsner 12.5% Wheat OG...

    American IPA Trilium Melcher Street Clone

    After a Saison next I plan to to a NEIPA or Hazy. I like the hope schedule of this series. If I like, it It's a great base to try new hops and easy to do split batches. Unfortunatly Trillium ain't available here in Norway. I plan to use hops I have in stock and not buy any new, so I've made som...
