The Pros and Cons of Using a Beer Filter

Homebrewing is both an art and a science, offering brewers the freedom to experiment with flavours and styles. One of the key considerations in this hobby is achieving the desired beer clarity… or is it? After bringing up the conversation in our last homebrew meet, I got my hands on a plate filter from one of our members. I was excited to test it out, but then it got me thinking about the article we recently wrote about casks and the “live ales” (issue 21) and whether there are downsides to producing an ultra-bright beer and whether the CAMRA campaign might have a further application beyond cask and secondary fermentation.

KegLand RAPT Temperature Controller

Like so many of our customers at Dark Farm Homebrewing, I’m always looking for ways to improve my brewing experience. Happily, there are new products arriving on the market all the time to help us with this. One of the brewing processes I’ve been focusing on is temperature control.

Think Tank

I am an Englishman who has lived in Estonia for 12 years. I started brewing just over two years ago when a friend said to me ‘You make good bread, surprised you haven’t tried beer’.

Notes from the hop farm – Spring 2020

The new season is upon us again. After coming back from our winter travels, bubbling with ideas and improvements to move the farm forwards, we donned our wellies to see what winter had done to the land. The farm in all respects is looking well, considering the battering it’s had in the off season. With winds of up to 80mph and incessant rain it seems that the winter storms have not let up since we left in November.
