This looks like the one? Probably should be renamed to "Mitch's Award Winning Aussie Lager" tho hey!?! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitchBastard Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 @Graubart hey mate, that looks like @Shamus O'Sean take on it. Pretty similar. I’ll do 3.8kg pale malt .2 carapils .3dextrose at 10m POR at 60 & 30 reaching an ibu of 18 EKG @10 to get you to 27ibu. 2L s189 starter fermenting at 16.5 water profile and pH are important. You’d want an end of boil pH around 5.1 and a water profile that will accentuate some dryness. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really didn't expect much but I was pleasantly surprised, not a bad drop. Can of Woolworths Lager plus BE3, 200GRMS of Dextrose into Grolsch Swing Tops with 2 Carb Drops. Lagered for 10 weeks. Great carbonation and refreshing crisp/bite finish. I'll certainly brew it again. Proper lager yeast with tin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Struth Herr Graubster, for a moment there I thought - he's forgotten everything, too long away from the precious amber fluid, but at least we know it's all good. Have a good Easter Grey Bearded One & enjoy your first slurp. Cheers. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John E Miller Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Beet kvass. A probiotic beverage of fermented beetroot - slightly salty, sweet, earthy, tangy. They call it 'blood of the earth'. First time I had it I found it a bit gnarly, but I am really enjoying it now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey John, that looks interesting, they reckon the best thing you could ever do for your health is drink beetroot juice. I am thinking it is alcoholic lol. Did you make it ?

Classic Brewing Co Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I think I just found my answer, I am seriously interested in this due to the health benefits & I love beetroot. Is Beet Kvass Alcoholic? Lacto fermented drinks often contain small amounts of alcohol and beet kvass is no exception. The fermentation process breaks down the sugars in the beetroot and produces both alcohol and carbon dioxide. The longer you ferment your beets, the higher the alcohol content will be. But the amount is still negligible and shouldn’t be a cause of concern to most people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s 2.4 ratio which actually puts in a “bitter” range, however.... the fact that it ferments out to 1.004 drys it out and has a late flavour addition balances the bitterness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickers Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 picked some random bottles from my shelf of things to taste down the track. turns out i like dark brews, never actually realised that before starting on the homebrew thing. anyway tonight i'm having a few different beers that look similar but taste really different. cascarillo amber ale from the coopers recipe trove, bottled boxing day. enjoyed in weeks ago and still really tasty a few months down the track. easy-ish to make, will do again. SMOTY ale, made and bottled in feb to drink in june but had to try one at the half way mark. and i like just about to pour an ole brown dog which looks a bit like this happy easter eve! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
