stquinto Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Today’s “apéritif” include an Ashes Ale, followed by a Coopers Celebration Ale, can’t remember which one. That for me is more of an after-dinner beer, bit hey, I’d already opened it - what was I supposed to do, chuck it? 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iBooz2 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) First time I have used my 1 micron beer filter. Its been sitting around here for months and I finally worked out how I can get the left over beer out of the filter and into some stubbies and not oxidize them rather than wasting it. Anyway I will be using this filter every time from now on when I keg my beers from the two pressure fermenter's I now have. The pic is my True Blue Pale Ale which I used as a test from the Fermzilla into the keg via the filter. Gotta say I am impressed. The True Blue Pale Ale was only cold crashed for a couple of days at 2 C and no finings were added at all (except kettle finings at end of boil) and 30" after kegging you can pour an extremely clear glass of beer. Normally I would have to wait 4 weeks for this recipe to clear up. This one only has a slight carbonation so may take some time to get there as I am going to slow carb this one as well rather than fast carb as I have plenty of other beers on tap so no need. Bugger all clean up to of the filter and its gear so its a win win for me. Also its a very inexpensive bit of kit so all you pressure brewer's out there should have a look at getting one of these.

jamiek86 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 @iBooz2 I only use my 1 micron filter for the brew water and already noticed difference in my beer. also because it's getting rid of most of the chlorine 97% the yeast gets off to a better start and does a better job. Looks really good mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitchBastard Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Knocked the top off my latest efforts in saison territory. Gee whiz she’s a cracker. Carbonated out the Wahzoo .Microscopic bubbles, spice, decent yeast character and super dry with some lingering funk and acidity. Few minor adjustments for next time but I am pretty happy with this one. Super simple beer but really delivers. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey mate, just with caps. You can get a 29mm attachment for the standard capper along with 29mm caps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Brewing Co Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 I have been toiling in the front courtyard raking up leaves, sweeping, all that sort of stuff &I felt a beer coming along, thought I would start with a bitter & then move down the line. Definitely looking forward to Summer as we are starting to get a taste of it today, a whooping 18 degrees !! Bring on the BBQ & sit outdoors weather. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey blobster. From memory it’s WLP568. I think it’s the blend of the DuPont strain and something else to help avoid the lag you get from just the DuPont strain. i actually fermented this one fairly cool. Kept it at 20 degrees most of the ferment until I bumped it to 24 with the help of a hot water bottle in the ferment chamber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDW Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Commiserating an extended lockdown with an early doors arvo IPA. This was meant to be a hazy but turned out a lot darker, sweeter and more malty than expected. Was my first effort with the lallemand verdant yeast and was mildly disappointing…a decent ale but not what I wanted… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
