OOFers tonic - Newent meet beer
« on: 23 August 2011, 17:41:08 »
Well I spent this afternoon making the brew for the Newent beer.  What even happened to the first batch I will never remember know ::)

As Yummy as the first batch was I have made a few changes in the hope of improving it.  Batch one was a little flat so I will add more sugar to the 2nd phase I will also decant into another vessel to reduce sediment.  I also swapped out the brewing sugar for spray malt which I hope will make it smoother and increase head retention.  Lastly I have used more hops this time, both boil add to the brew and dry hopped in the fermenting vessel.

40 pints (give or take a few for quality control) will be taken to the meet.  Just out of interest who is partaking?
