Homebrew meet - Midleton Feb 12th

[johnrm]

Rough plan... (cut'n'paste from last thread)

Mad Monk Midleton 8pm sharp

We will cook another kit, I think Brian volunteered, I'll hook up with him and we'll work out the detail/logistics.

Discussion on Temperature control - The importance of this and how to regulate this and the impact on final beer.

Yeast - Forget your dog, Yeast is mans best friend! Care for your yeast and the reward is great! Different types, where to get it, harvesting.

Samples and swaps.

What have you got conditioning? Not sure if I'll make it myself, we'll see next week.

Oh, welcome to the forum

Hey Jason,
I shifted it back to 2nd Wed. as 1st Wed conflicts with too much stuff.
I just got the Ok from conor in the Mad Monk so the email is just gone out.
I'm going to bring a keg of the Irish Red that we milled the last night for sampling.
Hopefully its 'Smithwicksy'

[Pockets1]

sweet thanks for the link, I will sign up in the morning

I have a few in the bottle conditioning atm, a hacked coopers Australian larger kit, a honey porter, which was supposed to be honey and oatmeal but didn't realise in time that you need to mash oats not just steep.  and finally a strawberry cider.  So hopefully ill have a few bottles of the hacked kit by next week.  I have a orange and sultana mead along with another porter bubbling away :-)

One you're a member, do a few reviews and you can enter raffles for kits and stuff to review.
And you can showcase your photographic talent by taking lots of nice pics!

should have join after the first meet, the 5% from HBW would have paid for the year twice over at this stage :-(
