I can highly recommend popping into Balance next time as well… (unlikely to hear Alice in Chains though)

Hopefully it’s picked up now - we’d be there but it’s a bit of a trek from Bath…

Ah so it goes into the fermenter a lot hotter than it would for beer then? (this is coming from somebody who uses an aquarium chiller instead of a glycol chiller!)

I’m intrigued as to why you have a dehumidifier in your fermentation chamber? Do you use that just for sake?

The Utopian West Coast and Black Lager are also well worth trying

Thanks to Chris for letting us brew at Ralph’s Ruin! Gonna miss this when it’s gone…

At this rate it might be cheaper to get all our water from Spotless instead of just for brewing purposes! 😂

Stings a bit doesn’t it… Privatisation is working well for somebody I’m sure - but not the customers…

A great recommendation - the smoked eel and ginger/coriander/chilli mussels were very tasty. Many thanks!

@bonsvoeux1.bsky.social hope you can help - we’re over in Brugge for a long weekend and made a bad call on mussels tonight (we’re doing fine on awesome beer), can you offer any recommendations please?

True - I gave up on the email side of things a few years ago. The calendar side of things is pretty straightforward on it though.

How about hosting it yourself on a Synology box?

Quite excited to see Jester King House culture is back in stock at the Malt Miller - time to plan a few homebrew recipes!

Will let you know if we do book it - would be cool to see a few Zoom characters in real life :-)

Yep already signed up for Feb. Not done a ‘live’ one yet apart from when we happened to be in TT… How does it work when at Nicks? Do we need to book for 2 - as that would be a tad too much beer/cheese for one sitting.
