Title: Cask Day - Sunday the 9th
Post by: Will_D on July 29, 2015, 10:06:31 AM
So the next big day is Sunday the 9th of August starting at 9 am.

We need people who are collecting the Quad to be there early.

If you are just delivering then maybe about 11 am is good.

Now here is the list as I see it as to who is emptying and filling. Please update this to show that you are attending or who is going on your behalf.

I will bring my chugger and the racking cane (As well as a lot of containers!!)

Anyone else bringing a pump?

Er, yes. Yes I .. should be. Tapatalk must have gone a bit mental. Anyway, yeah, I was supposed to call over to you Thursday or Friday, but ended up not getting back from work until after 23:00 on Thursday, so forgot everything.

So how much went into the barrel?
Title: Re: Cask Day - Sunday the 9th
Post by: molc on August 10, 2015, 09:32:38 AM
Well barrel was pretty much full, but won't we need topups over the next 9 months? Would maybe Valens contribution be right for that perhaps?

So how did the quad taste?
Title: Re: Cask Day - Sunday the 9th
Post by: bigvalen on December 21, 2015, 01:55:34 PM

So...I finally got back into my storage unit, and found my 20l of beer I was going to bring to the cask project. Alas, due to ... scheduling screw ups, it's now had six months with 10 or 15cm of air on top of it (as I needed to move it around, so couldn't leave it with an airlock & the original CO2).

Would it be so stale, that it's boned, or could I try pitch some souring bacteria in on top of it ? There is no mould or similar growing on it, it looks...fine.

If it's worth going, would WLP655 be what I should throw in ? Does it need any easily-fermentable sugars to kick it off?

Taste it John. Then decide
If it tastes good drink it
If it tastes bad dump it
If you want to make a sour plan it properly instead of gambling on something that you don't think is upto it from the outset
