    My German inspired brew shed

    Another quick update. I'm stopping the build for the next while, I'm trying to put money away for insulation and what I'm going to do with cladding the wall's. A food grade hose turned up on Tuesday in prep for a collaboration brewday tomorrow(saturday 29th). Myself and three friends have put...

    My German inspired brew shed

    Just a small update, managed to get a brew on yesterday. First time in the BrauSchuppen so thought best to make it a German style. So i brewed a Helles, the same one I brewed 3 weeks ago that I'm happy with. A longer brewday as I wanted to take time due to the change in location and less floor...

    Gelatin Fining

    Unfortunately haven't cut my dip tube. I am considering replacing with a ball float but never really considered taking the inch or so off my dip. I may however look at doing this next.

    Gelatin Fining

    Yeah, It's pretty much Clear booger like things. I just can't think where I went wrong or done something differently. The gelatin/water mix was clear and fully disolved. The Beer was 1c and I agitated lightly once full. I'll wait a few days before taking another sample before looking at doing...

    Gelatin Fining

    Sorry to dig this up from the past few months. But having an issue with my Helles I've fined with Gelatin. Last night, I boiled up some water, added 3/4 teaspoon(measured spoon) into 100ml water that I boiled and left to chill for about 5 mins and added to the keg. I then transfered the Helles...

    Pilsner lack of head....

    That does look like a great Pils, Mind me asking for your recipe? I've not done a German Pils for a few years, focusing mostly on my Helles.

    Trialbens Keezer Build.

    I'm loving the build! Jealous I can't have something this big around my house. My small shed will do! Can I ask what size push fittings you're using on the shanks? I'm thinking this may be better than what I have planned.

    The hose is temporary and is being used to test it all works. Food grade hose is being ordered tomorrow to prevent any issues like this. And thanks for the appreciation!

    My German inspired brew shed

    Firstly, sorry for the likely bad formatting. I'm on my phone relaxing after a day of work and some shed work. Last week was a bit dreary with constant rain, meaning I couldn't get out to put the last coat of paint on. I have noticed that the rain water has been running off the back of the shed...

    Feedback on Bohemian Pilsner

    Got to agree, I've learned a lot from rebrewing my Kölsch as well as my Helles which I'm on the 5th iteration of. This one's tasting the best so far, just on a D rest at the moment but going to crash down in a few days.

    Feedback on Bohemian Pilsner

    Gotta agree with the rebrewing aspect. I'm hung up on chasing that perfect Kölsch. Nearly there.

    Feedback on Bohemian Pilsner

    For my lagers I do a Protein rest of 50c then up to my sacc rest. As you're doing BIAB this is probably not possible. The 90 minute mash is also probably not needed either, but again BIAB, so if that works for you, go for it. Ingredients wise, you're pretty much spot on with your hops and...

    My German inspired brew shed

    I forget what day I'm on with this build, but I'll continue anyhow, Unfortunately I didn't get many photos, but I'll post a few that I did get. This weekend seen us putting power into the shed. Aside from myself not having a few things done, it was pretty much uneventful. Started around 10am buy...

    My German inspired brew shed

    Continuing on. With all the walls up, we set about the roof and on it went. It was a big pannel and required two of us man handling it into place but we got it there in the end. Unfortunately when I took delivery, all the glass pannels for the windows were smashed. The company I bought it off...

    Sorry, I didn't intend to make you jealous. I found the that when I said "All my stuff will be out the house" she became more and more forth coming with the idea.

    My German inspired brew shed

    Hi all, So the Shed was delivered on a Tuesday, I painted it twice over the following 2 days and took a Break on the 19th of April for my Birthday. It was treated prior to getting delivered, but I felt painting it myself to make it my own was better than leaving it plain. On the 20th my Friend...

    My German inspired brew shed

    I don't quite know the material, however I've got a 15year warranty from the manufacturer who I checked in with on best way to prevent any damage from weather and they advised to paint prior to building. It does look good if I say so myself. Been sitting on the patio in the sun having a beer the...

    My German inspired brew shed

    It came assembled, instructions were fairly straightforward with exception of the window beading. That was a bit of a nightmare.
