swifty Posted May 15, 2011 Author Share Posted May 15, 2011 qiuck update so i did the coopers twocan draught with safale us05 and amarillo hop tea (smelled great) pitched at 21c and is fermenting away at about 19c glad to have got the temps right as it seems this is very important after doing some reading of john palmers how to brew, next beer will be all extract and fresh hops, looking forward to that one[happy] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeonardC2 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Sorry bout the measurements folks. I've been going back & editing in metric units of measurement for the rest of the world. My bad. I also tried to make it easier to read with a little editing. That brew has slowed down for the long haul at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddy Waters Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 what would you suggest instead of the M-D? other that the toucan. As a non-fermentable I wouldn't replace the M-D it I'd just leave it out. As for fermentables, personally I'd use some malt (1kg?) and wind the dex back to 250-300g. But that is just me [biggrin] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Eh!L Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 muddy, your suggestion is a little closer to the norm for most of my recipes. i gotta say though. i've tried the corn syrup in a couple of brews lately and they've really turned out well. i say the key to this whole recipe is the combination of the OS draught kit and the late addition of the cascade. the aroma is strong and pleasant. the wife comments everytime about the fine bouquet.[cool] chad p.s. sorry i don't use capitals. i'd be here all day at the speed i type if i did[crying]. i do try for some order and punctuation. skim if you must.[bandit] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weggl Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 My gladwrap air lock seems to bet a big bubble on the top! Your's Muddy?[innocent] Hope I got the Muddy right, Greg.[roll] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty A Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I am guessing you don't put a pin prick in your gladwrap. Mine does the same thing. It's a similar sign to the airlock farting really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddy Waters Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Yep I often get a domed top at high fermentation - I don't bother with a pin prick as the co2 always gets out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
