Here I am again having more fun with sourdough, now I did think after the last post I wonder if you could brew beer with sourdough. I brew my own alcholic ginger beer with wine yeast normally, so I thought what if I were to use sourdough instead well I had a look to see if anyone else had tried it and sure enough there are a few and all of them use the hooch or tea as they like to call it.
I on the other hand had a healthy happy starter that would take some time to produce hooch so i decided To inoculate it with the flower rich starter.Well after a slow start and no sign of life I decided to place it on my propagator as I'm not using it for plants at this time of year and covered it with a blanket. So when I checked on it this morning it after about 36 hours the temperature was 27c that's 80.6f for anyone from America by the way best choice for president. I'll keep you informed about how I go on with my alcoholic ginger beer.
Ok this is friday the ninth of November and the boiler man is just about the start up the new boiler for the first time.
The beer has been burbling away since my last post it's been gasing off every 5 or so seconds, I am very pleased with the progress so far, I can hardly wait to taste the end product.
Wow I can feel the heat, the new boiler is working isn't life grand.Well thats all for now folks Just a short post to fill in the time while the boiler is fixed.
