You can pay someone tomorrow night at the Capital Brewer's meetup if it's handier. But you'll realistically need a paypal account to take part in group buys anyway.

Yeah it makes sense to just get a paypal account, it takes a few minutes to get set up. If you bring the tenner on the night it will just result in one of us paying from our paypal anyway, so it might as well be yours.

Woo member 200 8) ha ha. But ok I'll just set one up I tried before but failed but that was years ago I'll see ya tomorrow in kavanaghs

I brewed a 40 litre + batch with this, started at1.059,  down to 1.020 after 3 days , because of the size of the brew I made a 3.5 litre starter and pitched after krausen had dropped out., seems to be flying away , definite smell of peach and mango from sample, which was pretty murky, this could be due to the yeast and also had a bit of cold break and pellt resin  in the fv,

Mine is also extremely murky but I had forgotten to use Irish moss at the end of the boil so had assumed it was that.

I was considering dry hopping towards the end of fermenting, presume its leaf, in hop bags in order to reuse the yeast ?

imark

If I intend to reuse the yeast I move it to secondary to dry hop and collect yeast from primary. I still always bag the leaf hops in secondary for easy removal.

barkar

Hmmm, I think a lot of pellet hop debris might have come across, my filter got clogged so I syphon the rest of the  wort through  a sieve ,

Mine started at 1.063 and in two weeks it's only down to 1.018. I haven't been able to add the dry hops yet.  Not happy.
Should I give it a stir?

Hop Bomb

The reason everyone is going nuts over this strain is because it doesnt strip out any of your hop aroma. That attribute comes at a price -> A slow ferment. A lot of posts on HBT say 2 & half weeks for a ferment. All report incredible aroma though.
On tap: Flanders, Gose,
Fermenting: Oatmeal Brown, 200ish Fathoms,
Ageing: bretted 1890 export stout.
To brew:  2015 RIS, Kellerbier, Altbier.

DEMPSEY

Given the peachy notes coming off the yeast does anyone suggest a good hop balance to compliment this. :)
