Anyone oud bruining today?

[imark]

What's volume of the barrel in question?
Do we really need to allow a 10% contingency for already fermented beer being lost in transit?

[Eoin]

Not in transit, but in ullage over time and as tubs says it's our ability to count that needs a check.

Ok lads. How does Sat 12 look for organizing the pickup of beer? I'm working that night so my plan would be to pickup from a central point and then in the morning I will transfer to the barrel.

Anybody that hasn't brewed yet needs to get it on soon.

Once in the barrel I'll post up the barrel fill level status.

[imark]

Sounds good.

I was misjudged on munich malt when it came time to brew so mine is a little low. Doubt it will impact the overall beer much.
Just took a whiff of the FV and it smells great.

Brewed and pitched on 23 marsh and have just checked. It is still bubbling away with a bubble every 8 seconds.

[imark]

I'll be transferring mine tomorrow and getting another batch on for personal consumption and making kriek.

[imark]

Really! Mine was quiet after 2weeks. At this rate we'll need a bubbler for the barrel.
Out of curiosity, what is the current gravity reading?

[Eoin]

Dunno, I don't have a turkey baster, even a dodgy one.

Do you have an autosyphon? You can take the tube out and use the part with the non return valve like a wine thief by shaking it.

Hey!!! Leave my name out if this

The main ferment will be done and the critters will be working away. Activity will also be the co2 coming out of solution and this can be a while after initial fermentation.

I've got a bung with an airlock ready for when I transfer to barrel.

Good man Dodge
