Jaysis lads,

Right, barrel is over full, but we've always had a few who couldn't make it for some reason or other, and we've been short before too. Let's try a new method - post a picture of your brew here (indicating the exact quantity you have if possible) and you're in the barrel - first brewed, first in.

Does that sound fair?

Also, could you indicate if you are going to add brett and lacto? We only need about 80 l with them, I'll sour my 40, so just need two volunteers.

Thanks,
f
Will someone brew my BOS please?

Actually, as much as I'd like to take part I think I'll have to pull out due to a combination of time constraints and not having a corny keg or CO2 for transport.

Just keep everyone on the list as people always pull out

You're gonna have to using EventBrite for these barrel slots soon!  :D :P

I'll sour my portion. Could you update the original post with a deadline for getting this done?
Every little helps

With regards to suggestions for modification, anyone reckon it could do with being more bruin? Having one of the last of my bottles and it's almost more of a deep red than brown. Would some chocolate malt go well in this recipe?


Dr Jacoby

Some carafa special would work well. You don't want roastiness in there (or maybe that's just me).
Every little helps

Is there a date for the fill? I'll be away for two weeks from Saturday which may rule me out

Good suggestions Paul/Peter
