| "...(diacetyl, DMS, acetaldehydes, etc), because these off-flavors stick out like a sore thumb in a pale lager. This is why home-brewers start with ales." This is also why quite a few Franconian brewers should switch to brewing ales. Barry, if you fancy an easy book on the subject of getting started, this one, while 20 years old now, is pretty standard reading...in the US homebrewing scene (which we all know is the world's best, of course!): http://tinyurl.com/4sxa8qc There is a 2003 edition as well which might be even better. Some criticise some of his recipes and methods, but for absolute beginners, I think he hits a fine balance of technique and entertainment. Heck, I could send you my old copy if you like. Huh...I see that brand new copies can be had for either £24 or £135! (?!?) Better go with a used one. |
