There's a recipe in here, I have this book and it's a very good start on the road to real all grain home brewing. The recipes are simple, as are the processes. Like any hobby, you can make it as complicated as you feel. I try to keep it simple and that works for me. I started off all grain over 12 years ago with a simple bit of kit similar to this. https://www.thehomebrewcompany.co.uk/peco-electric-digital-mashing-bin-boiler-32-litre-p-1993.html We celebrated our tenth anniversary with a party for over 400 shareholders and customers, using the event to launch the adventurous Crop Circle, brewed to a complex recipe including malted barley, wheat and maize along with a selection of English and continental hop varieties. This isn’t intended to be a Summer Lightning clone recipe, it’s definitely inspired by it. A crisp, light summer beer that showcases large doses of East Kent Goldings but rather more punchy in the hopping schedule. The copper was set away to attain the boil before adding the hops. At this point I must explain that the boiler is an aluminium stand-alone boiler powered by gas....
Anybody have any hints on how to clone this ? I found the following, but would appreciate your inputs and experience as to the best way to build a similar beer to one of my summer favourites (and if i can get this off to a start soon, it might still be summer by the time I get to drink it!) Even though it went with hiccups, I am in no doubt that AG is the way to go! I'm currently looking at S/S boilers and tuns Success continued in 1996 with a win at the Brewing Industry International Awards for the session beer G.F.B. (Gilbert’s First Brew), claiming Gold Medal both in its class and the overall Championship, beating 232 other cask beers! If a problem happens with the delivery please let us know and we will do our best to help, we can talk to Parcel Force to help solve the problem.There are more than 200 hop varieties, each with its own unique qualities, which in turn are affected by the growing conditions, so the same variety grown in Washington State and Worcestershire will have different accents and aromas. To make an extract version of either of these beers, substitute pale malt syrup pound for pound for the malts, then toss in a half a pound of crushed pale crystal in your kettle (in a grain bag) and remove just before it gets to a boil. Sugar and hop/spice additions remain as listed here. Poured clear as recommended on the label, and at a slightly cooler temperature than usual for a British ale, Summer Lightning comes out pale golden with a warm orange glow, a very lively bead, and a thin bubbly white head that eventually subsides to lace. The aroma of perfumed hops is forward but not overpowering, with faint orange-like traces and a distant earthy and minerally scent.
Brewers add hops in varying amounts and combinations in the same way chefs add herbs, spices and seasonings. Hops are usually added during the boiling stage – the later the hops are added, the more aroma they give. In response to customer requests, we’ve introduced brewery-conditioned Summer Lightning. The beer is now conditioned before bottling, and therefore achieves a much more consistent level of condition in the bottle. It also means that you can enjoy the full content of the bottle, and don’t have to wait for the beer to settle before pouring. We have not, of course, made any changes to the original award-winning recipe! Gluten-free and Vegan beer Either recipe can be fermented with your favorite ale yeast, although a hop-accentuating strain, such as the one originating from Young's, might be just the thing.
I think I am the world’s expert on porter beers! I have always liked them, along with stout, even when they were not fashionable. It bothers me how Guinness manages to con so many people with its marketing. There are so many very good stouts available that put Guinness in its place. ml bottle pours a yellow liquid, 1/2" white head. A mild hop bitterness in the nose, is this using some Burton yeast and/or water?
Great Deal
