Well.....it's time for another
Kingston Arms, off Mill Road in Cambridge at 8pm on Friday 29th.
Anybody is welcome to come and talk bo**ocks and sample some decent home brewed beer along with the fine ales behind the bar of course (and some good nosh)
It will be Steve's (Tequilla6) last meeting as he's off in his camper van full of beer to some weird places
So come and say bye.
For those that haven't been to one of the meetings, it would be good to see you there. Don't be frightened by the photo on our last events post

Count me in.
I think my white shield has got worse (not sure how) and also over carbonated, I'll bring some of my Christmas ale too to make up for it.

One of my colleagues from work is interested in coming. He has just brewed his second kit.
Let's see if we can tempt him over to the dark side.

Hopefully the others will add a decent summary of this 'free' beer after we meet.
Looking forward to that

I'm going to have to give this one a miss
again unfortunately, It's been a busy few weeks what with working for a living again and this weekend is quite full as well! I may be able to squeeze in a brew for myself (as apposed to brewing for new year's and a mates' birthdays) on saturday tho'.
Oh, and all my white shield went in about an hour at new years' s, so it couldn't have been that bad
Cheers,
Jamie

Good meeting up last Friday lads.
I seem to remember (barely) a request for the recipe for my Christmas ale.
I brewed it when pretty hungover and my notes were a little sparse but this is what I've cobbled together
Maris Otter 3985g
Pale crystal (60 ECB) 83g (This was left over from a previous brewday, I chucked it in)
Crystal (125 ECB) 702g
Black 52g
Dextrose 419g
Challenger (AA 6.3) 26g, 90 min
Northdown (AA 8.0) 11g, 20 min
Grated root ginger 50g, 5 min
2 cinnamon sticks whole, 5 min
1 clove whole, 5 min
Brewlabs Thames Valley 3 yeast (1.5 litre starter)
Final volume 17 Litres
Mash temp 68C
OG 1.062
FG 1.006
Btw, Is there a recipe for that porter with the brown malt?
