    Brewery doesn't allow mixing beers

    For the small number of customers who ask for a mixed beer, I can't see a problem with giving them what they want! Sent from my iPod touch using Home Brew

    (Basic How To) Hard Cider Thread

    Im a big fan of the 1 gallon approach! I'm hoping it will encourage me to be adventurous. I think I will do bigger batches of basic or favourite recipes, but one of the things that attracts me about this hobby is that, for a pretty low cost, every week I can start something new! :-) Sent...

    Dryness question: Strongbow

    I kind of thought the secondary wasn't really required. I want to try and keep things as simple as possible to start with. Once I've got a few batches done, I can start dicking about more. Sent from my iPod touch using Home Brew

    I'm probably going to catch some flak

    I HATE beer, all beer. Apart from milk stouts, which I love. Have you tried one of them on her? Lol Sent from my iPod touch using Home Brew

    Dryness question: Strongbow

    At what points should I let it sit longer? First fermentation, or in the bottles? Is it worth racking once into another Demi John and letting it sit for a while more before bottling? There are so many variables! Lol my goal for the first batch is just to produce something drinkable. Surely, I...

    Dryness question: Strongbow

    This time I just used youngs wine yeast. (I was eager to get started! Lol) From what I've read here though, I'm considering using Nottingham ale yeast next time? (Open to suggestions!) My recipe was: 1 gallon pressed apple juice Half a cup strong tea 1 cup Demerara sugar 1 teaspoon yeast It's...

    Just relocated to a dry country

    We used to do this at high school, to make super lager. Just added sugar and yeast and let it sit for a week. Gross. Sent from my iPod touch using Home Brew

    Dryness question: Strongbow

    Hi there, I'm hoping to brew a basic cider my husband will enjoy. He enjoys Weston's and his go to cider in pubs is usually Strongbow, not because it's very good, but because it's not too sweet. I'm not (yet) a seasoned cider drinker, and what I was wondering is, where on the sweet/dry scale...

    I'd like to try making a slightly sweet, lightly sparkling cider, but I'm scared of creating explosions! Sent from my iPod touch using Home Brew

    Dogs

    Ultimately, working dogs tails weren't docked in the first place for aesthetic reasons. Farmers, gamekeepers etc couldn't care what the hell a dog looked like, as long as it could work. Tail injuries can be nasty, and are common in working dogs, so docking was used to prevent them. The tails...

    Dogs

    Although I'm not sure I consider this a good reason, it might fall into this category. Some breeds, for example, British Bulldogs can have a corkscrew tail, which can make toilet activities a bit of a problem, so they are docked. Personally, I don't think selective breeding which allows this...

    Seeking ideas for the UK leg of my beer trip

    I prefer the old town and think it would suit your needs better, but it's ok because, in terms of walking distance, the two are within easy reach of each other! I think there is a backpacking place on the cowgate, and another in Cockburn (Co'burn) street, both of which are pretty close to the...
