Announcing: Epidemic Ales’ Lager at World’s End – THE Recipe, Direct from the Brewer

epedemic lager at world's end recipe

Lager at World’s End via MoreBeer


From the beer description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

A traditional pale lager so crisp and refreshing that it deserves a moment to be enjoyed even if the world around you is ending. A perfect introduction to craft beer for the uninitiated, and a welcome change of pace for the craft beer guru that wants a break from hoppiness. Lager at World’s End from Epidemic Ale uses a clean malt bill of Pilsner and Vienna malts and Flaked Corn for a light-colored, low-alcohol refresher.

Epidemic Ales opened in Concord, CA at the beginning of 2016 and have been brewing quality libations that leave a lasting impression ever since. In 2020, Lager at World’s End earned them a Gold Medal in the American Lager category at the Great American Beer Fest (GABF) beer competition. That award-winning recipe featured our own Viking Pilsner Malt. We’re stoked that we continue to receive excellent feedback from our Pro customers who are making incredible lagers *and* ales using Viking Pilsner as a base due to its exceptionally clean character.


Part of MoreBeer’s Brewmaster Series.  This is THE recipe straight from the brewer.

  • Shipping is free with a qualifying $59 order to many US addresses.
  • Easy Filler Item….  If you’re looking for a filler item to help you qualify for free shipping, consider grabbing some PBW

Announcing: LalBrew Farmhouse Yeast at MoreBeer

LalBrew® Farmhouse™ Yeast - Lallemand

LalBrew Farmhouse™ is a non-diastatic hybrid that has been selected to make saison and farmhouse style beers. This product is the result of the research and development work of Renaissance Bioscience Corp. (Vancouver BC, Canada) in partnership with Lallemand Brewing. LalBrew Farmhouse™ was selected using the most advanced breeding techniques. The Renaissance research team used classical and non-GMO methods to remove the STA1 gene, responsible for the diastatic activity of Saison yeasts. Care was taken to retain normal brewing sugar utilization to produce dry saisons. Additionally, the patented technology from the University of California Davis (USA) ensures that the strain will not produce hydrogen sulfide (H2S) off-flavors, therefore enhancing the saison yeast aroma characteristics.

  • Beer Styles: Farmhouse style ales
  • Aroma: Clove, pepper, fruit notes
  • Attenuation: High
  • Fermentation Range: 68-86°F (20-30°C)
  • Flocculation: Low
  • Alcohol Tolerance: 13% ABV

Announcing: Nut Nibbler American Porter – Features Cacao Nibs & Macadamia Nuts

From Great Fermentations:

Nuts and chocolate, together in a beer at last! Nut Nibbler is a smooth and delicious American Porter that utilizes British yeast for a special base beer. Brewer Michael Beck, who took the Brewer’s Vote with this recipe at the 2022 Indy Brew Battle, gently toasts cacao nibs and unsalted macadamia nuts, which he then adds in with the grains to infuse a dose of roasty chocolate and nut character into the beer. Perfect for the winter months, this beer features an array of malts that bring out the toasty, chocolatey flavors of the beer. Some Willamette and East Kent Goldings round the beer out and give it just enough bold hop character to balance out the flavor profile, including one hop addition added in with the grains.If you like well-balanced dark beers with a bit of special character, you’ll love Nut Nibbler!


Available in extract and all grain recipes. Note that you’ll need to add 3 oz macadamia nuts.

Announcing: SafBrew™ BR-8 Dry Brettanomyces Yeast!

SafBrew™ BR-8 Dry Brettanomyces Yeast

SafBrew™ BR-8 Dry Brettanomyces Yeast

THE FIRST DRY BRETT FOR FLAVORFUL “FUNKIER” BEERS

SafBrew™ BR-8 is the first Brettanomyces bruxellensis yeast available to brewers in a dry format. BR-8 is designed for bottling and/or cask conditioning. It offers all the flavor benefits of ‘wild’ Brett yeast, but with more control and reliability, eliminating the risk of over-carbonation and gushing after bottling. BR-8 has the ability to ferment glucose, fructose, maltose, and maltotriose exclusively. BR-8 is non-diastaticus meaning it will not ferment dextrins, preventing over-attenuation in bottling.

Selected specifically for secondary fermentation in bottles or casks, SafBrew™ BR-8 produces phenolic compounds that create a distinctive finishing touch that evolves over 1 -3 months, with funkier notes (barnyard, horse, leather…) nicely balanced by refreshing, fruity notes. Younger beers will display aromas of pineapple and light funk as the beer ages funk and leather notes increase.

SafBrew™ BR-8 Features:

  • Fermentation Temperature: 59 – 77°F
  • Aromas: pineapple, funk, horse, barnyard, animal, leather
  • Dosage Rate: 5g/26 Gallons
  • Note: One 5g packet can be used to treat 5 gallons but may produce a hazy beer.

SafBrew™ BR-8 Instructions of use:

Sprinkle the yeast in a minimum of 10 times its weight of sterile water at a temperature of 77°F to 84.2°F. One 5g packet should be rehydrated in 50 ml of sterile water. Leave to rest for 15 to 30 minutes. Gently stir until obtaining a yeast cream.

Add rehydrated yeast and priming sugar to your beer. Carbonation will be achieved in 1 to 3 months. At the end of the refermentation, the beer can be chilled down and will gain in roundness after 2 to 3 weeks. Carbonation at lower end temperatures (e.g. 59°F) can take over 3 months.

Announcing: DuoTight Compatible Solenoid Valves!

Solenoid Vavlve | Duotight Compatible | 12V | 0-115 psi | 6.35 mm D1087

About DuoTight: Kegland’s DuoTight Fittings are designed to work with EVABarrier Double Wall Tubing.  They offer quick, reliable connections, easy implementation, a variety of fitting options and feature amazing versatility.  They’re also, generally speaking, very well priced.  DuoTights are push to connect fittings and require no tubing clamps. Check out my extensive Hands on Review

Announcing: DuoTight Compatible Solenoid Valves!


This super handy Solenoid Valve is compatible with small 1/4″ or 6.35 mm OD tubing. This size tubing is often used on water filtering systems or reverse osmosis systems, and can be used with an Inline Regulator to drop your mains water pressure if needed. To integrate the Inline Regulator, you will also need a Duotight adapter to step up the tubing size for use with EVABarrier 8 mm OD lines.

Unlike some other solenoid valves this is a direct acting solenoid valve meaning the solenoid valve can go down to 0 pressure. This makes it quite handy for controlling CO2 flow or other low-pressure gasses. Suitable for pressures up to 115 psi (8 bar) so it will handle water pressure with no problem at all.

Made from high-quality metal and POM engineering plastics so it is durable and suitable for contact with a wide range of chemicals and beverages.

Specs:

  • Inlet/Outlet: 6.35 mm (1/4″)
  • Pressure Rating: 0-115 psi (0-8 Bar)
  • Mode: Normally Closed (NC)
  • Solenoid Coil Voltage: 12V
  • Solenoid Coil Amp Draw: 1.1A

Solenoid Valve | Duotight Compatible | 12V | 0-115 psi | 6.35 mm D1087

I Recommend These for DuoTight Fittings!
