Got invited to a work night out (free food and drink) so will have to sit this one out. Molc if you want to exchange grain/yeast or anything else in preparation for the June bank holiday weekend please let me know & I will try figure something out. Might have to meet you at the coffee dock some morning

Free food and drink always wins

No worries about the grain and yeast. I can bring it on the day and grind it just before I leave so we'll have no hassle. Will also pop the grown up yeast in a pet bottle.

Might be an idea to skip the meet this month if no-one else signs up? I'm pretty busy next week as well with the north county comp that weekend.

Sounds good, not sure if you use the 2% water addition by weight of the grain gets sprayed on to the grain 20 minutes before grinding.  I found it makes the process of grinding the grain go much smoother and it also means that the grains don't get pulverised so you have less flour in the mash. Maybe we could reschedule the meet to that Sunday evening when we are doing the brew to encourage more participation?

Nope don't do it, but I've never had an issue with crush that I've noticed. I'm fact, I keep making my crush finer to improve extraction. The herms, thin mash and bag just means it never sticks for me.

I spoke too soon,  can't make the 26th
