TOG Brewday - Saturday 12th July

[beerfly]

a slant will keep for a long time in the fridge, looking about a year timeframe.  but you do need to do a 2 - 3 step starter with it so will need to be able to do 10ml/100ml/1l starters.
Just used it in a brew yesterday so should be able to pull off some slurry fri/sat if thats more useful

Hey got a PM from someone on boards about this site so decided to join, would it ok to pop down and ask loads of questions sanz a beer?

[Shane Phelan]

Yup! By all means drop in, doesn't matter if you don't have any beer with you.  We usually start on time so we would be mashing in not long after 10.30.

Ah the slant will do the job, the starters will give me something to do during the week before a brew day

Cheers Ciaran btw
