Hi Ric

I've been brewing for a few years now, only just perfected my methods. Brewing season is coming to a close very quickly as the mercury is rising and my ales just aren't the same when brewed above 18C. At the moment I've got batches of Pale Ale, Stout, Dark Ale and an experimental "Draught" (which is actually a little ripper!) conditioning in the brew shed (garage). When I'm not brewing, I'm usually fussing over the hop vines (Chinook and Saaz) growing out back.

Are you doing all-grain, partial mash or "kit & kilo" brews? Personally I use the kits as a base, with a decent stove-top boil and hop additions... never enough time for a full mash!

You'll have to let me know how the Corona clone turns out, I've been looking to do this style for some time now. Would be great with some noble hop additions such as Saaz.

Cheers!
