Barrel - Belgian Dubble Recipe

[Damien M]

Just ordered some 500 and 530 from HBC, so will get another on Sun/Mon!

Mine is also the same colour!

[Damien M]

Meant to say! if we end up with too much on the day of Barrel fill we could always bottle the remaining to compare and contrast?? Take a litre of each donor and Corny it for bottling? I'm suggesting so I'll take the bottling of the blend!

iMark if you make a batch, it will be accepted! We are currently hovering around the 160 liters for a  220 keg (standing to be corrected) with 2 other double uppers so the more the full er er!

Naysayers speak now!

How much special b do you need tube? I have about 400g of it. I'm in bray if its worth it unfortunately I don't have any Candi sugar and doubt I have the yeast

[Damien M]

On the Candi Sugar, I think most of us used a 50 50 split of White Candi and Dark Candi, and on tasting them ...... they are white sugar and Dark/brown Sugar so in the absence of Candi normal sugar will do, also mentioned in Radical Brewing as Candi is not a requirement. A dark ish sugar is equilivant

Sorry Folks I thought Mcgrath was stepping up here?

I can brew tomorrow!

[Ciderhead]

Sorry Mr T I'd rather offer first refusal to existing participants and then put it out there
McGrath just pm'd u.

[mcgrath]

I'm  happy to give ingredients to tube and let him brew. I've a bit on at the moment and one catch is enough for me anyway!

[Ciderhead]

Cool, anyone else from existing contributors pipe up before 5 otherwise Tube your it cheers for helping deliver this.

If you're stuck, I have a capital Tee so can step in.
Consider it a contract brew ;-)

[Ciderhead]

Wow. Sorry lads, I'm out.

How come? Whats changed I don't understand

Is there anyone else on the East Coast that wants to have a go before we ask John as this is just dragging now ?

[johnrm]

The logistics on this could be a bit hairy and free time may not allow me to brew this for another 2 weeks. 

[Damien M]

I'll get another on this Sun. Getting 500 and 530 tomorrow.  Wanted to get the Bastogne just for the Airbourne hell of it but next time perhaps.

[Will_D]

This is getting a bit silly.

How come after so long after the initial time line was posted are we this short of a fill?

Anything brown and alcoholic would do probably as after all the other 35 gallons will even out most playing fields.

We need a desicion soon or we may as call the whole thing off.

How many gallons are we short?

Can someone get a brew on in the next two days?

If not lets just enjoy our own that we have brewed.

Fair play, thats twice in the last week you've stepped up to help, remind me to buy you a pint on Sat
