Pezzza Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 (edited) Yes it is a bit of a health thing... been helping myself to the Keg Freezer a bit much for an extended period and having a few low carb and AFD days off... So the festive Green Drink is Spinach Leaves and Mint fresh from the Garden - then Fresh Aussie Ginger from the shop as well as Coco Water... and then I found some WPI (Whey Protein Isolate) powder that needs using so it all went in to the Blender and out came that frothy creamy Lovely Edited June 29 by Pezzza 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChairmanDrew Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 I'm really just showing off my fancy new glass for fancy beers, but my Coopers dark chocolate stout tastes pretty good from it. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its really interesting seeing these develop. Its slowly smoothing out but i can taste more brett influence too. Really nice beer. Have 7 large bottles left so will drink one every month or so which should take me to when the next one is ready. Outstanding stuff ! Well done on the patience as much as anything 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stquinto Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 (edited) An AG COPA. I really love this brew Then a bottle of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. The kegged version is much better, but bottles are fairly convenient, we’ve all been that way. I’m glad to have bottled and kegged from the same batch so I could compare. Finally the Botanical. Lovely brew, I cheated as it is under carbonated so I topped it up from the COPA. Works fine Edited June 29 by stquinto Shocking grammar 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidM Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Dark Schwarzbier 32 Days in the bottle, I did 6 with normal sugar The rest with half sugar to allow for aging. This is one of the six, thought it was time for a taste. Different from my normal Darks or Reds but Yes I like it Crap photo but you get the idea, I will brew this again! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a great recipe, mine turned out very nice as well. I did put one in the fridge today to have later 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brauhaus Fritz II Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Even after a most delicious can of Paulaner Hefeweizen this one is definitely not a step down. Sorry, but it was too nice to take a picture earlier. My Ag Stella Artois clone is really up there. I will do it again, next time with Saaz. This one had three types of Hallertau 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChairmanDrew Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Behold, my Nelson's Light V.2.0 in an Export glass (they should really put the branding on the side, so it's visible when holding it by the handle). Although not as good as my Nelson's Light V1.0, over time it has come into its own. Not bad. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stquinto Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 COPA then a Botanical. A Theakston’s Old Perc yesterday too. All very palatable I know a lot of people on the forum go for a “fast turnaround” on the brews but where possible leaving them to mature pays dividends IMHO. “Where possible” being the operative words… 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But It will come down to Logistics, Kegger's will need extra kegs and bottlers will need extra bottles and the space to keep them all 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But It will come down to Logistics, Kegger's will need extra kegs and bottlers will need extra bottles and the space to keep them all When I was bottling, I used to have heaps of bottles stored (apart from hoppy ales) but know I am kegging the only bottles I get are a few from what does not fit in kegs. I have been filling smaller kegs rather than bottling, but I agree it is nice to drag out an aged stout sometimes. I have plenty of room, but I still couldn't be bothered bottling too many these days. As far as storing kegs, that really is not an option, I have too many fridges running now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
