Hello All, I'm just after a bit of feedback on this recipe, as it's the first lager that i'm going to do. I'm aiming for a fairly light and easy-to-drink brew, one that my wife will enjoy (hopefully), but still retaining a bit of flavour. I'm not too worried about style with this one, just the...

yeah, you've got no worries with the egg re e.coli etc... but it might add some protein haze(chill haze)?

Keen to brew a barleywine, but getting some other brews under my belt first ;)

Wow awesome! This is almost the same as one of the brews that I am planning at the moment. I was actually thinking of doing a porter rather than a stout, and using a bit of vanilla as well. I hadn't thought about the bourbon, I might have to look into that! I actually havent had any beers that...

I've had the exact same "problem" with my 2 extract brews as well... OG was right on target, but FG was about 5-10 points higher than expected.

I would counter with the argument, why brew plain "boring" beers when you can just go down the road and buy a 6-pack of the same for cheap?

awesome... if this turns out well, i'm doing a batch too! :P

I think the solids will be the oil from the curd that has separated out, but apart from that... no idea! I'm not sure if it would be a good idea to skim off the oil soids? anyone? Really interested to see what happens with this one! :)

wow... just... wow... have read about 1/3 of this thread, and am really interested to see how this turns out!

Well here is a dodgy photo of mine from about 2 weeks ago (just after it had spurted fermenting foam everywhere out the airlock!). It's an Ironbark / Yellowbox honey (Native Australian) based mead with Black Blood Plums, Raisins, Prunes, and Dark DME, plus some spices - vanilla, cinnamon...

Here's my sweet mead experiement. I was a little excited, so this was kinda done "spur of the moment", with little planning. I figured that if nothing else, I can leave it in the cupboard for a year or two while I brew more "normal" stuff :cross: Ha! who am I kidding, no normal stuff from...

wow, i've wondered about this before, but dont know anyone who tried it. I'm still a way off from making sours, but would be keen so hear how this one turns out!

Wow, this sounds awesome! I've gotta get me an End-Of-Times Mead! :P hmmm... i'm thinking of coffee, chocolate, vanilla, royal jelly and "burnt honey" (Bochet?) ;)
