Blueberry ale
Beautiful things can come, 23L at a time. I did up a batch of blonde ale beer (maybe a bit like MGD). I added 2 kg of blueberries into the secondary fermentation vessel, then added my brew. I am going to let this go for another two weeks before bottling. The sugars from the blueberries have given the yeast something to munch on. Cheers! -Jay

WatchI usually walk the 4km+ to work a few times a week. It gives me time to think without being interrupted. Join me on my walk home as I share a few thoughts from the work day about measuring stuff at work. Video quality sucks. You can expect that from a phone camera. About 3 minutes.
