Malter White Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 4 minutes ago, Classic Brewing Co said: My thoughts are you would need some added malt hence the low OG however you have pointed out your reasons. It will still be beer so I will watch out for updates on Channel Muzz. I'll report back on a taste test in a few weeks time. Most of this will go into the 8l kegs and the remainder I'll pop into the Lobethal growler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they want you to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they want you to. They probably want the label to stay on for identity purposes because they offer a discount on refills. I'm unlikely to refill with their beer though when I'm making my own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think you are right but I would buy another Growler but only refill with my brew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzza Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 (edited) Choccy Woccy Nitro Boi (CWNB) is now underway... yeah it seems a bit strange to be using Dubbya but it's pretty cold where CWNB will be living during his Ferment Stage so I wanted to make sure that the yeast could cope ok... hopefully it will go ok and then I am aiming to Nitro-on-up in the Keggler. I believe @Greenyinthewestofsydney Greeny last time I did something similar you noted it would be more of a Scwarzbier with the Dubbya Yeast... so then putting that on Nitro might seem a bit strange - but I got more Nitro than CO2 at the moment and although it might be a bit of a hybrid am hoping it will still be an ok creamy Boi.

I've already bought some passionfruit pulp and I'm gradually building up to that beer. I'm sort of just taking one step at a time with variations to see what works best for me before I go all in with the pulp and hops additions. Some also add frozen mango pieces too, which I'll give a go some time. We always have that in the freezer for my daughter's smoothies. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get Galaxy and Cascade hops from Big W, if you cannot get Pride of Ringwood. They come in a handy tea bag inside the package 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Big W has Brigalow brand Galaxy hops only, in the tea bag. On Sunday I will buy a tin of Coopers Pale Ale Extract, and No. 2 Brew Enhancer, and Coopers LDM 500g and the Galaxy hops; and it will be in the fermenter on Tuesday! I was a bit hesitant because the info on line says "Galaxy is an Australian hop often described as having a passionfruit character alongside citrus and peach aromas and flavours." Could be a bit too fruity, but I'll give it a go. Edited August 4, 2022 by jennyss 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galaxy will be fine Jenny, it's a great all rounder but the amount that you are buying is not a lot to really affect the flavour, you would need at least 50gms for it became really noticeable. https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=36c5eec65706b2f5b16240f87667ee3a13266e8b74fdf7b93a2fb6f948473538JmltdHM9MTY1OTU5MzYxNCZpZ3VpZD1jZmE4OGFlNy0zYTEyLTQ3MzItOTVmMy0xMTRmMDYyY2JhYTMmaW5zaWQ9NTIyNw&ptn=3&fclid=91c11f92-13bc-11ed-9889-aaedea12cb9e&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9iZWVybWF2ZXJpY2suY29tL2hvcC9nYWxheHkv&ntb=1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
