Title: Brewing Weather
Post by: Snuff on July 13, 2012, 05:05:45 PM
This summer weather is playing havoc with my brewing plans.
Everytime I plan a brewday it ends up raining and I have to cancel. Not had a brewday for a month and my stock rotation is going to start suffering.
Hopefully get one on tomorrow.

It is a wonderful thing to brew together ,

You have to all be sound about it though and let the egos take a back seat and all just chip in your own particular expertise/equipment/contacts/knowledge . It leads to great beer , and great , easy brew days ( because the load is shared . )


Even better is the getting together to crack open a cask , and drink the lot of it , with the people who made it .

There's great strength in clubs !! Best of luck with it !!

Wallace - do yous ferment the beer in the same place as it was brewed, or do you bring it home n pitch the yeast?

normally better to bring it home . along with a flask of yeast .


That said , we have a shed in the well . so some group brews do get left there and casked later .....
