Introduction

Brewing beer is easier when you think.

There's a number of people in the space and other 'interested parties' who'd be interested in putting together a number of things to aid in the brewing of beer. A number of them have already brewed before; sometimes only from 'syrup', however, and not from 'full grain'.

The aim of this project is to get together a group of people and pick a date and place to bring a number of tools together and perform the brewing of a few batches of full-grain beer. Expect to learn how beer-brewing takes place, as well as be experiencing all the associated skills that go with it. It's likely we'll need to weld a stand for a burner that'll support a 50-liter brewing-vessel. We'll need to work on adjusting/tuning/extending the malt-mill(s). We might even venture into automatic temperature monitoring and regulation, etc etc. etc.

In other words; all the best things of all disciplines mashed up together.

Dates for brewing

3rd of October 2015

We were

  • Marnix (cancelled)
  • Piele (present)
  • Justa (present)
  • Eduardo (came to watch)

We brewed a around 18l of IPA and 13L of dark dark stout. Expect more info about these brews.

Note: the beers have been bottled and have been divided between Piele and Justa. Parties interested in trying them are invited to contact either person.
