Phil's Beer Blog: January 2010
http://philsbeerblog.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Join me on my journey through the wonderful world of brewing and drinking beer. Saturday, 30 January 2010. Salisbury CAMRA Winterfest XIII. Been to the Salisbury Winterfest this afternoon. There were an interesting selection of beers including more golden beers than expected at a Winter Ale Festival. Nothing really stood out as a Winter beer but there were some good beers none the less. My favourite was Box Steam Funnel Blower. A very enjoyable afternoon's drinking followed by a pretty good curry. As a c...

Phil's Beer Blog: The last batch bottled and the recipe is being tweaked for the next brew
http://philsbeerblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/last-batch-bottled-and-recipe-is-being.html
Join me on my journey through the wonderful world of brewing and drinking beer. Monday, 7 February 2011. The last batch bottled and the recipe is being tweaked for the next brew. The first batch of Green Bullet Gold using the new recipe has come out OK. I had a few issues with the yeast not settling out as quickly as I'd hoped but it's now pretty clear and has been bottled. Obviously I had to do a certain amount of "Quality control" but I still managed to bottle 60 pints. Posted by Phil Robins. I've been...

Phil's Beer Blog: Update on Wednesday's Brews
http://philsbeerblog.blogspot.com/2010/09/update-on-wednesdays-brews.html
Join me on my journey through the wonderful world of brewing and drinking beer. Sunday, 19 September 2010. Update on Wednesday's Brews. Just a brief update on the beers I brewed earlier this week. Apologies for the distinct lack of pictures but I have been too busy doing beer to take pictures. I'll try to remember next time. Posted by Phil Robins.

Phil's Beer Blog: July 2010
http://philsbeerblog.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Join me on my journey through the wonderful world of brewing and drinking beer. Friday, 16 July 2010. Finding time to do all the things I need to do around the brewery is difficult with two boys under 2 (actually William is now 2 but that doesn't make it any easier) but tonight I managed to get a beer racked and another into the FV. I know, the style police will be there telling me that a stout should be a certain gravity.blah.blah.blah. but I don't care. It's a bit of fun! So, what's the recipe tonight?

http://philsbeerblog.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Join me on my journey through the wonderful world of brewing and drinking beer. Thursday, 17 February 2011. Green Bullet casked and a "Nice" bitter in the FV. What with looking after two children under 3 I don't have a lot of time to brew these days so, in order to finalise my recipes for my new venture, I'm now brewing at night. Last night I racked the last Green Bullet beer (which tastes pretty good) and brewed a fairly standard bitter. Posted by Phil Robins. Monday, 7 February 2011. I wasn't sure abou...

Phil's Beer Blog: Green Bullet Gold Yeast Count
http://philsbeerblog.blogspot.com/2010/06/green-bullet-gold-yeast-count.html
Join me on my journey through the wonderful world of brewing and drinking beer. Monday, 14 June 2010. Green Bullet Gold Yeast Count. To read more about how to do it. So, in my Green Bullet Gold I have 890,000 cells per ml which is typical of WLP002 or Fullers yeast. It drops like a stone. Based on this I'll set the FV temperature controller to start cooling in the morning and will rack to cask on Wednesday evening. Posted by Phil Robins.

Phil's Beer Blog: The new face of an old recipe
http://philsbeerblog.blogspot.com/2011/01/new-face-of-old-recipe.html
Join me on my journey through the wonderful world of brewing and drinking beer. Tuesday, 25 January 2011. The new face of an old recipe. It's been a long time (several months) since my last post so I apologise for that. A lot has happened in that time; I've been made redundant, become a house-husband and am currently investigating the feasibility of starting a small-scale commercial brewery. Put simply, CAMRA. So I'm taking maize out of the recipe. I brewed this beer on Wednesday last week and it's curre...

BREWING BOOK REVIEWS: January 2010
http://brewingbookreviews.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
A review of books about brewing, brewing history, and beer. Im a homebrewer with an interest in brewing history. Most of the books reviewed will be one aimed at the general reader and homebrewer although there are a number of proper tomes in there too. I usually give some idea of the cost of the book from a single supplier. There is no particular significance to this, the chosen source simply being the cheapest I could find with minimum searching of the interweb on the date of the original posting. There...
