To Rice Hull or Not

I have an all in one system and read often where brewers use rice hulls to allow a better mesh extraction.

Is this necessary, how much do you add to a recipe?

Re: The Great British Brew-off?

I think the show is watchable, nothing too technical to stress the head, but is mindless entertainment. It may not be perfect but at least gets craft/homebrewing onto home TVs to create awareness.. Agree that James Blunt was a bad choice and the format seemed to lack any real detail but... It should...

Re: awaiting my brewziilla 3.1

I bit the bullet and purchased the 35l Brewzilla from BrewKegTap. It came within a few days and is in perfect condition.

I plan to do my first brew on it over the Christmas period.

I will let you know how it goes

Re: Adding Fruit to fermenting

Thanks for the advice. Reading the trail is inspiring. May end up pulling, and then freezing and then adding to the 2nd Ferment bucket and then let the warmish wort fill over the top. By the time the bucket is filled and started 2nd the frozen oxk would be no more and the whole lot will stabilise. I...

Re: Adding Fruit to fermenting

I get it, but I so freezing may be a good idea then, but and as stated. It is added after primary fermentation so is mostly alcohol.

I guess I will mash then freeze, then add to the pot for second Ferment.

Re: Adding Fruit to fermenting

Really appreciate your comment. I was also thinking about mashing them with some water then cooking for 5m.

Letting cool and then adding. I have used tinned Strawberries before and just opened and added directly because the contents will already be sterile

Re: MNKE SUN for Xmas

I would love to start working with cornies but I have no space at all. I have this is why I reuse the mini kegs and keep them under the stairs then chill for a week before I am ready to drink. This time of year is easy as I can keep them on a shelf in the shed. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Re: MNKE SUN for Xmas

Well chaps I already have a party star tap, so which is why I use the mini kegs. Only just started and bought the party star before I realised 'cobnut' had 1. I have been splitting my bottling between a keg and swing tops. The keg and party star are fabulous so if you do not have 1, have a look a wo...

Adding Priming Sugar.

I am about bottle a recent brew (12 ltr). I intend to dispense 4.5 ltr into a 5 ltr mini key and the rest in bottles. I have always dissolved sugar and water then boiled it before adding to my dispensing bucket. Want to know if it safe to add the sugar in without boiling direct to the mini keg and d...

Re: Recipe advice - limited ingredients

No brew would be a disaster, but as ko g as the sugars are there, the you would end up with an interesting flavour and color.

Experiment away
