Australian Beer Festival

Re: Broken Hop Bag

Thanks for the advice. I've got a second fermenter I bought for bulk priming and managed to completely forget about racking. I might try racking it for a few days with some finnings and then see how it turns out. I'm brewing lots and stashing it in the cellar for summer now anyway so hopefully it ...

Re: Broken Hop Bag

Hmmm I'f I can jump in on this question I've got a similar issue at the moment.

I've been moving out from Coopers K&Ks to hops, grains and extracts, but still frustrated with a lack of aroma in everything i've done decided to throw 30g of Saaz pellets and 15g of Cascade in my fermenter right before ...
