Kegged and naturally primed a dark ale with 1968, haven't used it in a long time, man is it a great yeast. Not really a porter. Cant wait to drink it. Might get the nitro bottle out, if its not empty. Also, pitched yeast into my witbier.

Never liked 34/70. S 189 or S 23 are my fave dry lager yeast strains.

Ooooh been a while since i brewed a witbier. Just ordered yeast and unmalted wheat. Thankyou !

Kolsch, or however you spell it, wherever you are, has to be the most controversy generating beer style. I'm pretty confident the brewers in Cologne don't pay any attention to what a bunch of homebrewers think of it, or how they feel about it, or how they brew it.

Very clean user friendly lager yeast. Can ferment clean at warmer than usual lager temps. Hard to mess up. Clarity very good as well.

I agree. I still like WY 3726, and will still use it, but i do like the farmhouse so far. I also like to leave the for a good few weeks, so i'll re try in a few weeks, but, very happy so far. I used some dextrose, mainly for a boost in alcohol, which i normally don't do. I usually do 4% saison...

Coors light started becoming available in australia in the last few years. The canned stuff, i think is pretty good summer beer.

My sour porter sat in my garage through 4 australian summers, ( 30c'ish easily and often ) and occasionally the air lock dried out completely. I worried about it, but it was the best sour i made by far.

I started with the 3V cooler and gravity in the early 2000's. Very basic. Then people started getting temp probes, pumps and PID controllers on home made 3V trolleys. Pretty complicated to my simple mind. Im in maintenance, so like the simplest setup i can get. Then i saw BIAB. I was sold...

Spelt saison. Getting through the batch now. I try to leave it a while, but it isn't happening this batch.

My dark farmhouse. All the colour is from Sinimar, 130g in 5 gal, which is way more than i normally use. The bottle i have is old so i thought i'd use a lot. Early tasting, but its really nice. Bit of a generic saisony aroma and flavour, which i quite like. Dry finish, and the sinimar adds...

Congrats!, but what's an Aussie pils? Asking as a curious Aussie

029 is great for hoppy ales IMHO. Its my US05, without the peach haha

This is why i put the C02 back on between drinking sessions ( after bleeding the higher pressure nitrogen from the keg ) But, i have forgotten before and while it did lose carbonation, for stout or mild i honestly didn't mind at all

Damn are you getting the smart tag with it!?

I'd much rather have a beer engine but damn, they're expensive here haha

I do this. Because renting a decent sized nitro mix bottle is ridiculous ( Australia ) . It'd last me forever. I carb ( lightly ) with C02. Then use small kegland disposable Nitrogen bottles and a stout tap. It works, but can be finnicky to get right ( the initial carb/Nitro serving pressure...

I get zero fruit from 029. So little, i use it as my house "clean ale" yeast. I've brewed with it a lot, mostly at 15c. I like 2565 for koelsch. What temp do you ferment it at ?

S189 drops pretty clear, pretty quicky on it's own.
