  I’d argue that with all that killing of single cell life forms, no beer could ever be vegan.

  I’m going to do a second attempt at a lemon infused beer next. Last one had a single lemon in 22 L of beer and the taste didn’t come through at all. How many limes per how much beverage did you go with?

  Enjoying the sahti-stout here alongside the usual Christmas nutritional overload. Pretty soon I’ll run the rest into bottles and free the Kegmenter for next run. For that one I’m looking to adopt some yeast pups from @alexander 's selection :)

  Same same! Yesterday was brew day for a Guinness-dark sahti x stout. It was my first beer recipe and this run is the fifth time making it.

  Traditional sahti is very well available in my area (not the case for all of Finland) so my stuff can be a bit less trad: 1300 EBC black malt and some Simpsons caramalt backed with a hint of rye malt and standard issue Viking sahti-malt. A particular fresh yeast is the only required ingredient according to EU authentic produce guidelines, that’s what’s bubbling mine. Cheers & merry Xmas!

  This comment right here, Santa Claus :D

  Thanks a ton! Makes perfect sense, this is what I will be doing from here on.

  To pay it back a bit - I have a trick that reduces the hops gunk a great deal already. Couldn’t find a pic of the product itself, but I put hop pellets in large tea infusion bags. The pic there at least shows the size. Clip the end shut with something, maybe put a glass or steel ball in there for weight if you need them to sink. I just let them float, the boil will roll them around. One bag takes only 15 - 20 g of hop pellets due to swelling, so there will be several bags in the kettle.

  Finn & a hobbyist brewer & chem engineering person working IT because cash here :) Advertising is the right thing to do, I’ll certainly be placing an order or two now that I’m in the know. I’m in a sahtipitäjä and know some smaller and bigger brewers. Let’s see where this goes :D

  Can’t but join in the fun. Meet the Egg Mini. Does all sorts of humble servitude, but the coolest thing is a webserver only accessible via Wireguard through HAproxy running on a Digital Ocean droplet.

  Finished my ‘try and see’ cider batch. Three kinds of apples from the yard, juiced at the juicers, plus a homeopathic 22 g/L pale ale malt. Fermented to fully dry in 17 days at 14 C and 1,8 bar. After that a couple days at 2,5 C to clear it out. Plenty of forced carbonation. Came out a bit mild, like a dry white wine, but that made it easy to drink. Gave most of it away in 3 L bags, because I want to get the vessel empty and get a beer going.

  Lesson learned: much more acidic apples next time, and the malt wort needs to be as concentrated as possible so it doesn’t dilute the apple juice.

  Now is proper.

  Couldn’t help myself, a little bit of malt went in along with a helping of dark syrup, to the effect of 2 ml syrup per litre of ol’ scrumpadillo. Very lively fermentation already on day 6 (at 16 °C). Wishing you the best of luck with yours :)

  I too did the juicing station run last week. First attempt at cider forthcoming. I’ll try a malted cider with 1/6 of the malt I use for beer. That should provide the yeast with healthy nutrition.

  This! Made nice labels for the first few batches but surely it’s better to keep it craft and sharpie on 😁

  nice produce OP!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Grain Crush Size for Brewzilla⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  not entirely answering the question, but hot tip: one can screen the grain to remove the finest flour. adds a bit of labour but i find it’s not too bad. this is craft brewing after all 😄

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Since we're sharing labels :)⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks a lot! Remains to be seen what ends up in the brew, might be a sensible move to make the first red without any exotic vegetables to get a feel for the grains.

  I hope the label didn’t draw too much bad blood stateside. It’s all a meme halfway round the globe, y’all.

  That’s the vibe I was shooting for XD
